Write for Life was created from a deep belief in the power of words to heal, transform, and reconnect us to ourselves. Write for Life was born out of a desire to allow as many people as possible to discover these simple, powerful and profound tools to release themselves through their own words.

I founded this organisation many years ago, after I experienced trauma and decided to write this down. Once I wrote this trauma down it completely disappeared from my mind, and it had been playing over and over before this. I was amazed and so I started to do this every day and released more and more painful things that were coming up. I also ran a workshop and discovered the phenomenal research that had been done since the 1980s, in psychology.

I am a journalist, author, and teacher and in Write for Life we bring together expressive writing, creativity, and personal growth in a supportive and accessible way.

My background is in university lecturing, high school and college teaching, as well as professional writing, I have spent 18 years helping people find clarity, confidence, and meaning through language. This experience shapes every course, workshop and coaching offering—grounded, thoughtful, and designed to meet people where they are.

At Write for Life, we offer courses focused on expressive writing for healing, alongside a range of other creative programs that encourage self-discovery and personal expression. Whether you are processing life experiences, exploring your creativity, or simply looking for a safe space to write, our courses are designed to guide and support you.

For those seeking a more personalised approach, one-on-one coaching is also available. These sessions with me provide a confidential and compassionate space to explore writing as a tool for healing, reflection, and growth.

Write for Life is not just a place for learning—it’s a space to feel safe, to pause, release, reflect, and rediscover your inner joy.
