About me
I work on the premise that each person is a unique individual with a capacity for self-actualisation and the ability to make positive changes. From early childhood we learn to adapt to our environment, often at the cost of our unique selves. We may feel as if life is passing by or we get stuck in negative thinking. As we become aware of our beliefs and behaviours, and their impact on how we feel, we could make different choices on how we are in the world.
You may be longing for something to change in your life. Deep inside, you are looking for healing your past in order to live your life better.
I offer a confidential and safe place where you will be listened to and heard. I am interested in your story and respect your life journey so far with an invitation to explore your difficulties with life, relationships and work.
Getting started: call me or send me an email to set up an initial session in which we could explore your question and what you want to get out of counselling. If you are happy to continue we could discuss how we could work together.
My motto is: 'heal to live'. You can read more on heal-to-live-com.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an accredited Psychosynthesis Psychotherapist and Counsellor. I worked with people who are going through loss and grief after experiencing a significant loss.
I have a private practice where I meet people who are struggling with the impact of traumatic experiences in their lives. Psychosynthesis focusses on healing the trauma and harmonising all the different parts of the personality.
My diploma in Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP) developed by Dr. R. Selvam focusses on distributing the energies of overwhelming stress and emotions in the body. This helps the expansion and integration of these energies in order to improve emotional, physical and emotional wellbeing.
I also work with twin or multiples issues, specifically to help you to find your own sense of identity and become a person in your own right with self-agency and self-resilience, whilst enjoying the special bond with your twin. If you want to explore your relationship with your twin sister of brother, feel free to contact me.

Further information
Being a twin highlighted for me the importance of having a personal identity. This can be a shared identity with your twin, however it can be hard to feel a separate person who has an authentic self. You may be familiar with the dilemma between 'merging' and separation. It would be an honour to explore with you how to find your own unique and whole self that is allowed and meant to blossom!
