I became a therapist because I am passionate about people and improving as well as enhancing mental wellbeing. I understand that life can be a challenge and at times it may be hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel but I want to assure you that you do not have to go through life’s struggles by yourself. I am here for you and I am here with you. With your permission, I would like to come besides you and help you explore and discover events, thoughts, feelings and patterns of behaviour and together support you to make changes.

In psychotherapy there is an opportunity to get to know yourself in depth and discover new ways of living your life. Often we have repetitive patterns and ways of thinking that can for instance cause suffering, frustration, anxiety and sadness in our life. Despite our best efforts to decide to behave and relate differently, we drift back to our old ways of being and behaving. In psychotherapy we will work at getting to know your unconscious inner life. A lot of feelings and thoughts we have are not conscious and psychotherapy gives you the opportunity to reflect and try out new ways when you feel change is needed.

My background in working for organisations across London & Kent gave me a particular understanding of the emotional challenges that many of us face including, depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, bereavement, relationship & family issues. I believe that evidence based psychological therapies such as cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) along with an integrative counselling approach allows flexibility in dealing with each individual’s needs. This, combined with a safe & non-judgemental therapeutic relationship is key for the process of change & recovery.

COUNSELLING AND WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME:...……………I'm a person centred counsellor. My approach is non-directive and you are the expert of our own life. I work in a non-judgemental and respective way. I'm a caring, empathic and friendly person. Sometimes we need to step back and review our life and refocus and look at what matters which will then enable you to make new decisions. I will offer you a safe and confidential space where you will feel listened to without any criticism or judgment.

You’re someone who feels overwhelmed by stress, self-doubt, or emotional exhaustion—maybe you’re a highly sensitive person (HSP) or struggling with anxiety, burnout, or past trauma. You want to break free from old patterns, feel more grounded, and build healthier relationships, but you’re tired of just “coping.” You crave a safe space to explore your emotions, understand your triggers, and cultivate self-compassion. Online therapy appeals to you because it’s flexible, private, and removes the stress of commuting. You’re ready for deep, meaningful change, not just quick fixes.

I work remotely (online via video sessions), with clients across the UK (both adults and older teens).
I strongly believe that, "a healer is someone who seeks to be the light she wishes she had in her darkest moments." I understand that taking the first steps towards counselling is not always easy. My own life has not been without struggles and my own experiences of personal counselling have helped shaped the type of counsellor I strive to be.
