About me and my therapy practice

Most of the time we feel overwhelmed by our circumstances that make us want to question our existence in life. Many of us overthink and worry about the future and regretfully think of the past. I believe counselling can help us to navigate a fuller life and increase self-awareness and self-acceptance. A therapist provides a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings and can accompany you on your journey to learn more about yourself. The therapeutic process of gaining personal awareness can help you find peace with your thoughts, feelings and emotions.

Practice description

I am an integrative Bilingual Counsellor/Psychotherapist with experience working with depression, anxiety, abuse, bereavement and loss, stress, self- esteem, addictions, work related issues and resilience building. I have supported clients from a wide range of countries and cultures who are dealing with mental health issues and trauma. Since 2016 I have gained experience of working in the voluntary sector with refugees and asylum seekers and other individuals from across the globe. Additionally I have also worked with clients from Northern Ireland with a wide range of presenting issues including work within an addiction agency.

Through my counselling experience I have in-depth knowledge of mental health issues and trauma. My counselling work is based on integrated approach (person-centred, CBT and EMDR) practice and is informed by a community development approach. I am experienced in the key tasks involved in community-based counselling and support services by responding to individuals in difficulty.

I am a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) Accred.
