Born in the Netherlands, I am a mother and grandmother with a background in education, chaplaincy and counselling.
My current ministry in Spiritual Direction combines the use of Sandplay Therapy as a tool to help a directee further discern the Spirit at work. I am also a practicing funeral celebrant and teach meditation as a volunteer in the community where I live in Brighton.
My interests include art, singing, dance, movies, reading, walking and gatherings with family and friends.

Memorable Moment: A sibling reunion in 2012 where all nine of us were present. Although we regularly meet every 12 – 18 months, having all of us together to share a dinner was extra special.
