About me and my therapy practice
Are you going through challenges that make you feel heavy? Are you being misunderstood in relationships? Most people seek help feel when they are experiencing trauma, relationship issues or overwhelming challenges that need changing. I can offer you a compassionate and safe space to begin the needed change. I will support the self-exploration of your inner strengths, deepen your self-understanding, and work towards achieving the healing and wholeness you deserve.
Are these challenges causing anxiety, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and depressed? Challenging issues cause wounds, feelings of loss, hopelessness and despair. Many of our present challenges are rooted in our past relationships and experiences, so it is important for you to explore them and understand their present impact.
Finding the right therapist to trust and talk about these issues in a safe space can be unnerving and requires bravery. As a counsellor who has experienced past challenges, I understand the importance of a warm confidential space to build a relationship.
I offer a genuinely supportive and collaborative relationship - one that is curious but respectful, as we explore your issues. Genuine relationship is key to your therapy; it is accepting, makes you feel safe and heard so allowing exploration of what is going on for you
I am an experienced University counsellor, having practiced at the London Interdisciplinary School in Whitechapel, London.
As a qualified and experienced secondary school teacher, I understand, and can help with, the unique anxieties and pressures that school-children and young adults face.
I have experience working with young people, adults, older people and those from diverse ethnic groups and communities
Practice description
As a trained Integrative counsellor I am able to use different theories, such as psychodynamic, skills and techniques to uniquely counsel each client.
I provide a supportive non-judgemental space for you to explore your past experiences, any imposed expectations, relationship and behaviour patterns and their emotional expression.
We will take time to unearth the ‘real you’ beneath the buried layers of the past. In this safe space we will explore and challenge negative thought patterns, gradually exchanging them for more beneficial ones that will, going forward, support your healthy mind.
The space is yours to ‘see and know the real you’, both expressing and validating your feelings
I work with you to repair and restore your autonomy and strengthen your agency in relationships. You set your own goals so your therapy is tailored to your unique relational needs; I will trust you, the expert, to decide how you would like your therapy to be - its your therapy.
My first session
Our first session involves us getting to know each other and set the boundaries for our relationship.
We will discuss your understanding of therapy and how I will work ethically with you.
We will explore what brings you to therapy - the space is yours. You can decide which goals you want to achieve -it's your therapy.
