About me and my therapy practice

As an integrative counsellor who has experience working with young people and adults, I provide a warm, empathic and non-judgemental environment inviting clients to work with me collaboratively. While it can be a daunting step to seek counselling, it is the will to want to change things for the better, curiosity to engage with yourself and the courage to feel what often lies below the surface.

The benefits of counselling are increasingly accepted by society today – being able to talk to someone, being listened to, heard and taken seriously are the key elements enabling people to make sense of their situation, feel affirmed in their humanity and hence become focused on finding viable solutions to move forward. Yet, verbalising our fears, discomforts and annoyances is sometimes not enough to release an array of deep-seated feelings such as grief, anger and emotional pain. Traumatic life events, an accumulation of unfavourable circumstances, being exposed to unhealthy environments for many years or pre-verbal traumatic experiences can have an impact on our bodies as well as our minds. 

Hence, looking at the interconnection between the mind and the body, I encourage my clients to see themselves as a sum of many parts which allows us to function, live, love and further develop. Through body awareness, mindfulness, visualisations and psycho-educational discussions, I hope to offer a variety of opportunities to create insights and forge new neurological pathways of understanding.

Practice description

Having been trained as a humanistic counsellor seeking to integrate a multitude of therapies such as Person-centred therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Gestalt, Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, Transactional Analysis, Internalised Family Systems and Somatic Therapy, my work revolves around what suits the client's needs best and what supports each individual to free themselves from out-dated coping mechanisms while building new healthy ways of relating and living.
