We will work together at a pace that feels right for you, exploring various techniques to enhance your wellbeing and help you achieve your goals.

I would be very happy to start our work together with a free phone consultation where you can let me know your reasons for calling, your expectations of working with me, and ask questions.

Additional Experience & Development: Over the past twenty years I have continued to undergo extensive professional development in different areas such as:

near linguistic programming

cognitive hypnotherapy

I have worked in different settings (Domestic Violence, EAP, Group Co-Facilitation).

Sessions for individuals: 

Your sessions will last for 50min. during which we will discuss your issue and explore the underlying causes without judgement but with an open mind. This new insight and practical tools will help you to look for new ways of managing problems more effectively. We will work together at a pace that suits you to support an affirmative and holistic process for any positive change to be lasting.

Sessions for couples (60min.): 

Couples often find themselves stuck in a lonely or even opposing positions to one another with communication at a low point. If you feel that you and your partner would want to learn new ways of interacting with each other, improving your connections and exploring healthier boundaries, then you might find that working with me offers you the right environment to do this in a safe and balanced way.

Hello and welcome to my profile,

Choosing the right supervisor is a crucial step in ensuring ethically sound support for your clinical practice. To help you decide if I am the right fit for you, here is some key information about my background and approach to supervision.

As a BACP accredited and registered counsellor and certified integrative supervisor, I bring over 15 years of experience working with both individuals and groups in various settings (i.e. Women's Trust London, Brunel University London and private practice).

I believe that effective supervision provides a safe space for you to reflect on and explore issues that arise from your work as a therapist. This process is essential for maintaining ethical and therapeutic standards and benefiting both you and your clients. Supervision supports you in gaining clarity and confidence as well as identifying areas for further development and training.

I offer monthly individual supervision, both in person, via phone or online (Zoom and FaceTime).

I also facilitate monthly group supervision (up to 4 attendees).

I would be very happy to start our work together with a free phone conversation. This will give us the opportunity to discuss how we might work best together, explore expectations and requirements and arrange your first appointment.

I look forward to hearing from you.
