I have been working with a variety of clients with different life challenges and with clients with psychological distress. Since I graduated in Brazil I became very enthusiastic about self-awareness. I am keen on helping people with low self-confidence and help them to learn fundamental life skills for a better and meaningful life.

There are many reasons why people choose to come to therapy. For some, it can be a sense of discomfort, an internal struggle or perhaps an external trigger has pushed you towards seeking support. Therapy can be an empowering process, supporting you to reconnect with yourself, to notice & take care of your needs, bringing you self awareness, healing & a deeper sense of security. I work to provide clients with a safe & attuned therapeutic experience. This gives you the space to look at old patterns of behaviour that are no longer serving you, supporting you to make healthier changes, moving you forward into a place of authenticity.

Life can sometimes feel hard. You may be struggling with your relationships, work or life in general. If you are finding it difficult to get through this, and to make a change for the better, I can help you. I know how earlier experiences can influence current feelings and actions, and by understanding them yourself you can start to make positive changes. I also have additional training and understanding of working with couples who are experiencing relationship difficulties and anyone who is struggling with loss and grief.

Therapy is for anyone going through difficult times, whether this is due to problems in relationships, stresses at work, death of someone close to you, or struggles with health or perhaps having feelings of sadness and anxiety and not really knowing why this might be.

I have experience counselling people encountering temporary stressors or life-long behavioural and emotional challenges and/or those with mental health diagnoses. Relationship difficulties, life transitions, depression/low mood, trauma, and anxiety are just a few of the themes with which I have supported clients. I also have experience working with complex cases, including those with dual-diagnoses. The work that I do rests on a threshold of respect, compassion, and non-judgement. It is also collaborative: I offer an educated and human perspective to help bring heightened awareness to challenges, creating an opportunity for change.

You may come to therapy to speak about issues that make you angry, afraid or unhappy or that simply don't make sense. Understanding that we are all unique, with our own strengths, qualities and interests, as well as challenges, is hugely important for our well-being. We also know that through having a balanced view of ourselves, we can feel better equipped to cope with difficult emotional and psychological experiences and make positive connections with others. In our sessions, we will have the chance to explore whatever is troubling you to help you identify and confront such issues and feel more confident about yourself.

Welcome - a Senior Accredited Trauma Informed Counsellor/Therapist serving the wider community at large and the LGBTQIA+ community. I am an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner and qualified Attachment-Informed EMDR Practitioner with over 15 years experience of client work. I look forward to supporting you through your personal development journey as well as issues relating to depression, anxiety, trauma related issues, anger management, sexuality, sexual identity, fertility issues LGBTQI+ and a wide range of other issues. I want your experience of therapy to be refreshingly brief and as far as possible a rewarding experience.

As you consider finding a therapist, it's crucial to find someone who understands your unique story and makes you feel comfortable. I create a warm, non-judgmental space where you can explore your concerns and difficult experiences with ease. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, loneliness, or anger, tackling these issues alone can be overwhelming and even frightening. With therapy, you can start to rebuild that sense of connection with yourself. I believe that creating a safe space where you can be open and honest helps you explore and concur the issues that you feel are holding you back.

I am an Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapist. The best part of working with ACT principles is that is a science based therapy, which has been proven to be effective for a wide range of psychological disorders and life issues. I aim to help clients to accept what is beyond their control here and now and discover their values to add committed actions to enrich their lives. We aim to provide a framework to build psychological flexibility through theraputic interventions. Thus, there is no ideal client since all clients' problems are approached as workable. I identify with the client the issues, needs and goals.

I believe that we tend to access therapy when it’s no longer possible for us to travel alone on our journey, hidden from ourselves and others, stuck in familiar and/or unfamiliar patterns that can no longer contain us, and when the way in which we are relating (or not relating) to ourselves, others and the world around us, is no longer making us feel fully alive. Something tells us it's time to look inwards. Looking inwards can feel daunting but it is necessary in order to instigate meaningful and lasting changes ( both external and internal ).

I am an integrative-relational counsellor, drawing on different philosophies and techniques and adopting those that are best suited to your individual needs.

In my private practice and as a college school counsellor my clients often face stress, anxiety, and sometimes anger. This may lead to experiencing sadness, feeling despaired, alone, worthless. Life can bring us hardships, many of which may develop into anxiety and unwanted behaviour or attitudes as a result of difficult circumstances. I work with my clients to help them make sense of their difficulties and foster acceptance within. I provide an empathic and non-judgmental space in which we will work together towards your mental wellbeing and peace of mind. I offer a mindful approach to counselling tailored to each situation.

As an experienced Clinical Psychotherapist, I provide counselling to adults and couples. I describe myself as an Integrative Clinical Psychotherapist; My experience and training have enabled me to develop expertise in various treatment models which enables me to draw on different approaches and techniques that suit the person you are and the issues that you are presented with. I am trained in Psychodynamic, Existential and Person-Centred therapies. My theoretical approach is predominantly informed by psychoanalytic/psychodynamic therapy, which explores how the unconscious mind influences thoughts and behaviours.

You may be finding it hard to connect with the important things in your life right now. That may be your very own sense of self, your relationships with others, or simply your ability to enjoy things in the way that you would like. You may have been through something, or many things, and feel unsure how to make sense of this and how to move on with your life now. Or you may have noticed that you keep getting stuck in the same old patterns of thinking, or habits that don't work for you anymore. If any of these things sound familiar to you, then I may be able to help.
