My Approach

In my approach to therapy, I look to explore the struggles that my clients are facing, the way they are creating and living their lives and their relationships, and how the personal choices they have made are currently affecting them. In this process, my clients make sense of their lived experiences, find meaning, and elucidate what aspects of their life they want to change.

I work primarily from an existential perspective however, I use cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and person-centred approaches when I understand that they could be beneficial to my clients. In addition to this, I work relationally as I believe that understanding our relationship dynamics is crucial to make sense of how we relate to ourselves and others, and I place a strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship as a vehicle which facilitates change, healing, and personal growth.

My therapy orientation is suitable for working with all aspects of human experience, from broader issues, such as lack of meaning in life and relationship difficulties, to more specific issues, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, obsessive behaviours, and addictions.
I understand psychotherapy as a transformational process that facilitates change and enables the possibility to come out of the place you have been temporarily stuck in. This process may be difficult at times but also a great opportunity for growth, relief and ultimately, healing.

About Me

I currently work as a Counsellor for an NHS psychological therapies service. I am a fully trained Clinical Psychotherapist (Regents University London) which means that my work involved in-depth clinical exploration and a focus on understanding the deeper patterns and meanings behind emotional difficulties.I am a highly qualified psychotherapist with extensive experience in the mental health field. My training began at a young age with a master's degree in psychology where I developed a deep understanding of the complexity of mental processes, human behaviour, and emotions. I then went on to expand my knowledge by completing a master's degree in clinical psychology where I fulfilled an honorary placement at the psychiatry department of a renowned hospital, and I received specialised training in evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I moved to the UK and completed my education with a post graduate diploma in integrative counselling (covering psychodynamic, humanistic, and existential approaches) and a master’s degree and a postgraduate certificate in existential phenomenological psychotherapy, at Regents University London.
