She worked in a variety of jobs, many of which were poorly paid and lacking in stimulation or satisfaction. In it all she gained huge experience and made many friends along the way.
After having her daughter at twenty she found it within herself, despite having an awful childhood, to follow a path of self development. Enhancing her career prospects by opting for further education, June eventually reached the status of Registered Nurse, Health Visitor and then Counsellor. After twenty five years in the Health Service she ventured into psychotherapy in 1987, qualifying in 1993. June trained and supervised therapists up to her retirement in 2007.
