Counselling & Psychotherapy

I am an experienced and skilled counsellor, psychotherapist and clinical supervisor. I work with people from all walks of life, from many different backgrounds and ages with a wide variety of personal, relational or social difficulties. I see clients privately (self-referral) and receive referrals from General Practitioners, Community Mental Health Team as well as from various EAPs.

The duration of therapy that I offer will vary according to your need and what develops from the initial assessment and consultation. I offer both short term, focus-based counselling/psychotherapy for specific problems (6 to 12 sessions) and long-term counselling/ psychotherapy (open-ended).

Please contact me to arrange a consultation.

Practice description

My original training in counselling was my diploma in counselling based on humanistic approach. This approach facilitated me to learn that being genuine and honest, being empathic with people in their emotional turmoil and distress and being non judgemental to human conditions are the most valuable attitude in being a therapist. Later on I develop my psychodynamic skills from further training.

In 2000 I obtained my Masters Degree in Counselling studies and Supervision from University of Essex

I obtained my Diploma in individual, group and organisational supervision

Certificate in working with individual adults who have been abused in their early life

Certificate in Solution Focus counselling
