My Approach

I counsel from a combination of perspectives that include, Person Centered & Experiential, Bereavement and Trauma informed Trans-personal counselling which is centered on the spiritual aspects of human life or it doesn't need to be if you do not wish it to be. During counselling strong emotions and felling can arise which may require courage and persistence. I will not analyse you, not judge you or tell you what to do. Together we will explore your unique journey, try to make sense of it and ways how to process it and ways to move forward when you are ready. I also provide walk and talk therapy if outdoor is somewhere you would prefer to be. I can unjust to your needs.

About Me

I have 6 years experience as a Person-Centered and Experiential Psychotherapist working in a hospice as a grief counselor, in an education setting (6th form college), University students and an NHS setting. I am offering counselling to psychotherapy students up to MSc level . I can provide counseling for postgraduate students and scholars. Through empathy and compassion I provide a safe, confidential and comfortable environment for clients to explore any issue they would like to bring including trauma or bereavement, existential anxiety or depression, loss of any kind, relationships issues, Covid related matters, menopause or work related stress. During the COVID-19 period, I trained and provided on line counselling such as telephone, texting, zoom as well as face to face meetings. I have got full clinical UKCP membership and accreditation. Life circumstances taught me that with the right with the right support and help we can start looking at everything in different angles which can completely change our perspective and this is why I never give up.
