I hold accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), reflecting my commitment to quality assurance and ethical practice. My work focuses on helping individuals navigate personal challenges, trauma, and family dynamics through a collaborative, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship.I combine expertise in body-based interventions and psychoeducation to address both psychological and physiological impacts of stress and trauma.

Services
Counselling
Personalized counselling sessions address emotional distress, relationship challenges, and personal growth. Using a collaborative approach, I help clients develop self-awareness and coping strategies tailored to their unique needs. Sessions focus on present experiences while acknowledging past influences.
Gestalt Therapy
Gestalt therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and interpersonal dynamics. Through dialogue and experiential exercises, clients explore patterns affecting their mental health, fostering self-acceptance and authentic connections with others in a supportive therapeutic environment.
Sensorimotor Therapy
Sensorimotor therapy addresses trauma's physical and psychological impacts using body-based interventions. This approach helps clients release stored tension and develop resilience through mindful awareness of bodily sensations and movement patterns.
Family Constellations
Family Constellations therapy examines intergenerational patterns and unresolved family issues. By exploring hidden loyalties and inherited traumas, clients gain insights into current challenges and develop healthier relational dynamics through guided therapeutic processes.
Psychotherapy
Long-term psychotherapy addresses complex psychological issues through integrated approaches. Combining talk therapy with somatic techniques, I support clients in understanding deep-seated patterns and achieving lasting personal transformation through consistent therapeutic engagement.
