I work solely online Monday to Friday. My working hours are flexible.

Hello,

I am an experienced Integrative Counsellor, Psychotherapist, and EMDR Practitioner working online.

As part of my supervision training, I offer supervision at a discounted rate of £45 from October 2024 for the duration of the training (about a year).

My supervision approach is integrative, relational and based on the Seven Eyed Model. I also focus on embodiment and intersectionality.

Please contact me if you would like to book a supervision session or have a short chat on the phone to discuss it.

If you decide to work with me, we would start from discussing your supervision needs and expectations, make an agreement about how we would work together going forward and we would review our work regularly, making sure that your needs are being met. Within this context of a safe and transparent holding relationship we can together engage in the process where I can support and guide you, so that you are able to learn and grow as a practitioner and provide the best therapeutic service to your clients.

As part of focusing on the intersectionality, I actively engage in exploration of intersectional identities and experiences, the systemic matrix and how it impacts clients in their lives, clients’ relationships with the therapist and therapist's relationship with me.

I offer a no cost 15min initial consultation on the phone or zoom.

I offer online sessions only.

Hello, 

I am an experienced BACP Accredited Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist and EMDR UK and Europe Accredited Practitioner working online.

In my model of practice I draw on different approaches (psychodynamic,  humanistic, trauma informed therapy and  EMDR) depending on issues presented, client's unique personality and their specific needs. At times I incorporate other creative ways of working, like drawing, painting, writing or dreams interpretation. I use EMDR, which is a WHO (World Health Organisation) and NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) approved, very effective and dynamic way of processing trauma, both simple and complex. However, the most important aspect of my work is creating a safe and supportive relationship with you, the client, where you can feel heard, respected and understood. The aim of my work is to support and empower you in getting in touch with and exploring your feelings and thoughts and examining how different life experiences impacted on who you are now. This work on connecting to, and safe exploration of, who you are becomes the foundation for processing emotional blocks and gaining deeper awareness of  yourself. This can enable you to arrive at the place from where you are able to make desired changes in your behaviour and start creating your life in a free and conscious way.

 I have experience working with: depression, anxiety, childhood abuse and neglect, trauma both single and complex, PTSD, Complex PTSD, loss and grief, cultural and systemic issues, intersectionality, immigration, cultural adaptation, racial trauma, mixed race/multiracial experience, gender and sexuality, relationships. 

The first session lasts 50 min, as all subsequent sessions. The space of this session is for us to meet and get to know one another, where I would ask you some initial questions about your situation and answer any questions that you may have about the way I work. Based on this information I would decide if I can be of help to you or should make a more appropriate recommendation and you could decide if you would like to continue working with me. There is no obligation to continue.

With EMDR therapy I offer a possibility of having longer sessions, depending on client's need and preference.

I operate a sliding scale fee structure of £65 to £85 based on clients income. Feel free to contact me to discuss the details.

I offer a no cost initial 15min chat on the phone or zoom.

I am registered with a few insurance companies (AXA, Aviva, Vitality and WPA).
