Online & Face-To-Face Counselling
How I Work
My approach is Integrative Transpersonal which means I draw on various models including Jungian, Humanistic, Existential, Developmental, body, Gestalt, archetypal psychologies as well as psychodynamic theory and neuroscience.
The transpersonal includes working with myth and story, poems, the imagination, drawings, dreams and imagery and spiritual dimensions.
I offer compassionate and confidential support to help clients explore difficult experiences and feelings in a way to find potential meanings, insights and transformation through them. I tailor my approach to each client’s needs based on what they want to obtain from therapy, and highly considering the differences and diversities involved in the work together.
My way of working is relational. This means the relationship between clients and me is key for the work - what emerges between us is fundamental for the work itself. Clients’ everyday patterns might emerge during our work together. So, in a collaborative and respectful way, I’ll support clients in exploring and make sense of these patterns in our space, in order for clients to navigate through them and find meaning and insights.
I also work in a way to pay attention and honour soul. The soulful approach is a way to respect clients’ sufferings and I aim to support clients to work through them, instead of trying to remove clients from their difficulties. People’s sufferings may flag that deeper parts of ourselves have been abandoned or forgotten. These sufferings might point to a deeper need to give “space” to those forgotten or abandoned parts of ourselves that are still longing to be “heard and seen” with compassion and care, in an attempt to heal past wounds and re-integrate what has been buried for survival purposes at earlier stages of life.

Fees
£55 (65€) for an initial exploratory session and £70 (80€) per session afterwards.

Before The First Session
Before the first session, I would offer a free 20 minutes telephone conversation to listen to you and answer any questions you might have regarding what you are seeking in general as well as If you would like to know more about my approach.
First Session
The first session will be an exploratory time for you to express what brings you to therapy and what you would like to get out of it. Also, the first session is a good space to see if I am the right therapist for you, and to explore what counselling entails.
