About me and my therapy practice
I am an Integrative Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and Life Coach.
I am a registered member, holding accredited status, of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - MBACP (Accred.) and a full member of the British Society for Clinical Hypnotherapy (BSCH).
My approach combines principles from Person-centred, Psychodynamic and CBT. When appropriate, I use guided meditations, clinical hypnosis, coaching and psycho-imaginative techniques to help my clients explore what concerns them and find creative solutions.
I specialise in Online & Telephone work with clients.
I advocate a multicultural approach to counselling and psychotherapy.
I am also a Spanish speaker working with clients in the Hispano-american community in London and the whole of the UK, as well as in Europe.
Practice description
I specialise in working with adults who:
• Find it hard to form and maintain healthy relationships
• Struggle with low self-esteem
• Feel “not good enough”
• Have a tendency to prioritise the needs of others before their own
• Engage in people-pleasing behaviours
• Have difficulties setting and maintaining healthy interpersonal boundaries

Feeling stressed, struggling with anxiety, low mood, depression, low self-esteem, lack of self-confidence in different areas of life, lack of self-worth, weak or non-existent boundaries, experiencing chronic self-doubt, comparing yourself to others, being disproportionately critical of self, feeling like you do not belong and more.
