I use an integrative approach that includes psychodynamic, existential, body, trauma, sensory-motor, attachment, gestalt, relational, mindfulness, CBT, REBT, and emotion-focused approaches. I also do solution-focused brief therapy.
At our first session:
• We meet for an extended 60-minute session
• I make a full clinical assessment to support you holistically—attending to your mind, body, emotions, and environment—while considering your past, present, and future.
• You get my support to feel heard, understood, and empowered.
• Together, we set goals, think of a range of approaches to address your unique needs and find a way forward.
I work face-to-face and online with individuals and couples in English and Russian.
What to expect from working with me:
• A holistic, person-focused approach tailored to your needs
• Compassionate support in navigating difficult emotions and life challenges
• Safe space to explore trauma, self-identity, and personal growth
• Honest, kind, and respectful therapeutic relationship
My priority is to help you feel heard, supported and understood throughout our work together. I am here to walk beside you, providing guidance, tools, and encouragement as you move toward the life you deserve.
Welcome, I’m here to support you in your journey toward healing and self-discovery.

I'm on the Private Practice Register and recognised by Aviva, AXA, WPA, and Vitality.
With a background that includes working within the NHS and local counselling organisations, I have had the privilege of helping people from all walks of life. I have also supported employees through EAP providers such as CareFirst and TELUS, and have contributed to the HealHub youth mental health support program.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
