I am passionate about facilitating transformation and healing, and providing a safe and confidential space where you can bring all of your Self, your feelings, your pain, your joy and dreams, your frustrations, your wisdom, your light and shadows.
I offer one to one and couple/relationship therapy sessions.
My approach is Relational, Integrative and Transpersonal (Spiritual).
Sessions mainly involve talking, but breathing exercises, mindfulness, meditation and creativity may also be useful.
Psychotherapy is a word that derives from ancient Greek and means 'liberating the soul'. Our sessions together are an opportunity to talk about concerns and issues that might be difficult to share with family and friends and that might feel overwhelming to deal with alone.
It is a chance to feel supported, gain insight and make positive changes, in a way which respects your values, personal resources and freedom of choice.
Sessions mainly involve talking, but breathing exercises, mindfulness, meditation and creativity may also be useful.
If this is something that could be healing for you, please get in touch to find out more or to book an initial consultation.
My vision as a therapist is to hold myself accountable in working towards diversity, equity, inclusivity and belonging and am committed to creating a space that welcomes diversity in all its forms, recognising that it is the combination of different perspectives and life experiences that leads us to our best selves.
I welcome those from underrepresented backgrounds and culture and from all walks of life regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, nationality, physical impairment, socioeconomic background or age.
I have been involved with psychotherapy since 2003.
I have a Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I also have a Master in Philosophy and a BA in Dance Theatre.
I work both in English and Italian, which is my mother tongue.
I have a DBS check and I am a member of BACP and abide by its ethical code of practice.
