About me and my therapy practice
Hi, my name is Cynthia and I am a BACP Accredited counsellor. I work in private practice and have experience working across the NHS, Higher Education and the creative industries.
A central theme of my work is around identity, culture and belonging. You may be going through a significant life transition or feeling stuck, disconnected or noticing that the same patterns keep reccurring. Perhaps you are looking for a supportive space to consider how your life experiences have shaped you.
Our cultures, heritages, families and communities all influence how we form our sense of self, alongside work, education and the environments we move through. For many people, experiences of difference, migration, racism, cultural expectations, or feeling caught between worlds can influence how they relate to themselves and others. I strive to offer a space where we can look at these experiences, with compassion, and find a way forward that feels more authentic to you.
I work in an humanistic-intergrative way, which means I have been trained in multiple approaches and tailor my way of working to suit you. At the core, I work in a way that is collaborative, relational, that values the totality of your experiences. I take an intercultural and intersectional lens, rooted in anti-opporessive practice and welcome clients of all backgounds.
My first session
I offer a free 30-minute online consultation.
This is not a therapy session, but a chance for us to meet and decide whether we would like to work together. You do not need to prepare anything in advance and there is no obligation to continue after this conversation.
If you would like to arrange a consultation, or have any questions about working together, please get in touch using the contact form. I aim to respond within 2–3 working days.
