I could not recommend Serena more. She is a warm and authentic therapist who adapts to each client's individual needs. Having worked with Serena, I can very much speak to her lovely character also.

A lot of my work is based on the here and now, where I help people gain awareness of thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Within the humanistic perspective, gestalt therapy views you as a whole rather than parts and within that we can use different techniques such as two chair work to help explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviours.
