My Approach

In my work I join each client on a journey to find a place where past and present experiences meet. Together, we create an explorative space to allow for better self-understanding and healing, while also listening to what is soulfully shared through images, dreams and poetry. As we explore new or forgotten paths, your true self can, and will, find its voice and reach its full potential.

About Me

Hi, my name is Ilia. I am a qualified Integrative Transpersonal Counsellor offering online counselling sessions. I provide a safe, compassionate and non-judgemental space where I can support you during life’s challenges.

These may include working through difficult experiences, coping with trauma, having feelings of anxiousness, depression or generally feeling ‘stuck’.

It might be that at this point in your life you feel the need for change but the thought of it makes you apprehensive. Or that people around you don’t seem to see who you truly are and you feel emotionally disconnected, self-critical and the need to constantly justify yourself.

We can work together to see where these feelings may stem from and try reframe them to let change and growth take place. More often than not, these feelings are rooted in experiences from our young, sometimes painful past. We will be able to revisit those experiences to allow for understanding and self-compassion to pave the way forward.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I’m familiar with the struggles around questioning your sexuality and/or gender. If this is something you’re facing, I can walk the path of self-acceptance with you over rough or smooth terrain.

I’m passionate about helping people work through whatever may be holding them back from feeling or being their authentic selves.
