About me

If you're reading this, you've already taken a brave step, whether this is your first time in therapy or you're finding your way back to it.

My name is Albane. Before being a therapist, I am above all a human being, and I know how much courage it takes to find the right person, and how much difference it makes when you do.

I am a CBT therapist with additional training in person-centred, functional analytic and acceptance and commitment therapy, as well as a background in neuroscience (MSc in Brain and Mind Sciences, UCL; MSc in Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy with Distinction, Goldsmiths). I work with anxiety, depression, PTSD and complex PTSD, OCD, social anxiety, stress, complex trauma, and neurodivergent profiles. I bring clinical training and evidence-based tools, but also genuine curiosity and warmth, and I tailor everything to you, because no two people are the same.

I've worked across private practice, university counselling (Queen Mary University of London), and charitable settings supporting underserved communities (Power to Live), alongside clinical research including work as a screening assessor on a UCL psilocybin clinical trial. This has given me experience with a wide range of presentations, including complex and high-risk presentations, and a grounding in safeguarding and crisis support.

I grew up in France, lived in Brazil and Switzerland, and have been in the UK for ten years. I work in English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish, and warmly welcome clients from international, multicultural, or neurodivergent backgrounds.

At the moment, I'm working online only. 

Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to go through it alone.

Practice description

In our sessions, we will work collaboratively: making sense of what's going on, exploring how your thoughts, emotions and behaviours connect, and working on whatever patterns or beliefs might be getting in the way. I won't rush or judge you, and I'll be honest, including gentle challenges when needed.

My £25, 50-minute initial consultation is a space to share what's brought you here, for me to carry out a first assessment, and explain what continuing could look like.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
