About me and my therapy practice

All the experiences we encountered since childhood have shaped our beliefs system and play a big part in the way we relate to others and ourselves. Counselling offers the opportunity to review unhelpful thinking patterns while holding a space where you can find your own narrative and give meaning to your struggles. Counselling is a process that facilitates inner discoveries and enhance self-awareness. Counselling can be of invaluable support in getting in touch with inner needs, wants and desires. 

I am a BACP registered Counsellor specialised in Mental Health Issues and Trauma. I belong to the accredited register recognised by the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care.

I possess more than 20 years of working experience in Mental Health throughout a variety of settings such as NHS, MIND Org., Drugs and Alcohol for London, Carers Centre as well as EAP and Universities.

I am trained in Gestalt, CBT, Person-Centred, Trauma therapy and NLP. I have an integrative approach to therapy as I believe that you are the expert of your life and my role is to bring different tools at different times, tailoring them to your needs accordingly.

My therapeutic approach is Humanistic-Integrative and  Solution Focused. In fact,  I use different creative tools in challenging unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and destructive patterns of behaviour.

My mission is to empower individuals in reaching their full potential by facilitating the process towards self-awareness and self-compassion.

Practice description

Within my professional practice I demonstrate sensitivity to individual differences when working with clients of diverse ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, and cultural background, treating all people with unconditional positive regards and respect.

I provide a safe non-judgmental space where you can talk in confidence about any issues that is troubling you. Day-to-day life can be challenging and you may end up feeling overwhelmed, stressed, confused, anxious or experience a loss of hope. The process of talking and offloading your stresses in an environment where you feel truly heard is extremely healing.

In possessions of uptodate DBS check to further ensure protection form harm and foster trust.
