Since completing her initial training, Cindy has studied extensively to enhance her skill set in order to serve various populations.
In the final year of training, Cindy was based at HMP Dartmoor working to support the visiting Consultant Psychiatrist and detainees. It was her work at HMP Dartmoor that sparked her interest in studying Auricular Acupuncture, which she has now practiced for over 18 years, leading to her role as South West Regional Assessor of other practitioners on behalf of The College of Auricular Acupuncture.
Cindy has worked across a number of sectors focusing on education, health and social care, in a variety of community and inpatient settings, specialising in mental health and substance use across all ages. Most importantly, Cindy has always been a strong advocate for the people using the services she has worked within and has empowered individuals, children, young people and their families to have a 'voice' in service developments at all levels.
Working to effect change within whole systems was a development that Cindy welcomed as an extension of her clinical work. Cindy has been successful in various change management roles, championing the reduction of stigma attached to the mental health term. She has received national recognition for her passionate public advocacy.
Cindy has also volunteered for local charitable causes and boards, acting as a trustee for The National Association for Primary Mental Health Work and CAMHS Training, Jeremiah's Journey, Lifeworks and Plymouth Octopus Project.
Promoting the message of "no health without mental health," Cindy has continued her work by founding Arterne: Enriching the next generation CIC and Arterne 2 Nurse Limited. The creation of 'L.O.V.E Leadership' is captured in her book, Draw A Heart Around It: A Revolutionary Mental
