Our lovely Dr Hannah Brownlee who has been with us since autumn 2021. She sees adolescents and adults at Oru Space in East Dulwich.
Hannah joined the Oru community through our Bounceback scheme in November but luckily we are not waving goodbye to her! Through Toasty Tuesdays (the weekly members’ get together) Hannah met fellow member Christine and now works on Mondays and Tuesdays as a psychologist at Circle . Before coming to Oru Hannah worked as a Clinical Psychologist for the NHS, when she quit her job she was open to new opportunities that came her way and the bounceback scheme seemed the perfect fit to help put her vision into practice. Hannah works to find ways in which we can all become more accepting, removing judgment and acting from a place of trust rather than fear. Joining the Oru community has helped Hannah feel like she’s part of something bigger, she’s made meaningful connections through seeing smiley faces everyday and taking part in our community meditation classes. Being able to get out of her flat to a fresh environment, sparking ideas of fellow members, and spending time on our rooftop has helped her vision grow, transform, and even gain a job! Although Hannah originally came to Oru for the coffee she’s found a way to stay and we’re so happy for that!
