Lynn became a counsellor when one of her daughters fell into the evil trap of Anorexia Nervosa and OCD, at the age of 13.
She explored every avenue and source of help, but they were not right for her daughter or her family.
Watching her disappear before my eyes, and the huge impact it was having on the rest of my family, especially her twin sister, Lynn felt she had no option but to educate herself and learn as much as she could about eating disorders and mental illness.
Some years on, a lot of hard work, determination and many tears shed, and with the unconditional support from close family, friends, our GP and their school, Lynn’s beautiful daughter is now recovered, enjoying life to the fullest and her family are stronger than ever together.
With her new found knowledge, personal experience and most of all my passion and love; Lynn has been able to use my gift to help others and now works as a counsellor, author and mental health campaigner.
Lynn will be writing a regular column for The Sussex Newspaper starting from next week.
