About me and my therapy practice

I am Ingried Upingasana I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor and hold a degree in Counselling and Coaching and a MSc in Applied Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology. 

I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges, build resilience, and find their path to personal growth and well-being. With a deep commitment to understanding the unique needs of each client, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for self-exploration and healing. My mission is to empower individuals to overcome obstacles and reach their full potential. Together, we will work to identify and overcome any barriers that may be holding you back from living your best life.

Practice description

My approach is grounded in empathy, compassion, and respect. I believe in creating a collaborative relationship with my clients, where we work together to identify goals and develop a plan to achieve them. I draw from a range of evidence-based techniques and modalities, including cognitive-behavioural therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, solution-focused therapy, person-centred and psychodynamic approaches, as well as positive psychology interventions such as the gratitude journal, gratitude visits, acts of kindness, developing meaning, designing a beautiful day, etc., to help clients achieve meaningful and lasting change. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply feeling stuck, I am here to help.

My first session

During the initial session, a counselling contract is established, and boundaries and the limits of confidentiality are discussed. Furthermore, this provides me, the counsellor, with an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the client and assess their requirements as they elaborate on their motivations for seeking counselling. In addition, customers are requested to fill out an assessment instrument and ask any questions.
