Availability
I currently have availability for new clients. I offer in-person sessions in Queen’s Park, London, as well as online sessions. I also offer a free 30-minute introductory consultation so we can meet and see whether working together feels right. Please get in touch with me to discuss current availability or arrange an introductory consultation.
About me and my therapy practice
Sometimes understanding our patterns isn’t enough to change them. I work with both mind and body, creating a safe, relational space where deeper change can begin to feel possible — not only understood, but experienced.
I work with adults and young adults who may be struggling with trauma, difficult or emotionally unsafe relationships, anxiety, shame, loss, or a sense of feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves. You may already understand a great deal about yourself, yet find that certain feelings, reactions or relationship patterns are difficult to shift.
I am a qualified Person-Centred counsellor with a BA (Hons) in Counselling from the Metanoia Institute. My approach is relational and trauma-informed, grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens within a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship, at a pace that feels right for you.
Alongside talking therapy, I pay attention to how our experiences can be held in the body. When helpful, I integrate Brainspotting (BSPUK), a gentle body-based approach that can support deeper processing without requiring you to repeatedly retell painful experiences.
My multicultural background and experience of living between different cultures and languages also shape my practice. I offer therapy in English, Italian and Spanish and welcome people from a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences.
Practice description
My work is Person-Centred, relational and trauma-informed. I see therapy as a collaborative process built on trust, honesty and understanding, where thoughts, emotions and experiences can be explored at a pace that feels manageable for you.
I aim to offer a space where you can feel heard and understood, while working together to make sense of what you are experiencing and explore meaningful ways forward.
I am particularly interested in how our early relationships and experiences can shape the way we relate to ourselves and others in the present. Together, we can gently explore patterns that may once have helped you cope but may now leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself.
My first session
I offer a free 30-minute introductory consultation, either online or by phone, giving us an opportunity to meet and talk about what is bringing you to therapy at this point in your life. It is also a chance to explore whether working together feels right for you.
If we decide to continue, ongoing sessions last 50 minutes and usually take place weekly, although this can be discussed together depending on your circumstances and what feels most supportive.
