About me
At times, we all face challenges that can feel overwhelming to tackle
on our own. I want to offer you a safe space where we can talk and
think together. Here, all feelings are welcome, and I approach each
session with a non-judgmental attitude.
I offer psychodynamic counselling, a gentle exploration of your past
and how it beautifully intertwines with your present. Whether you're
seeking short-term support or a longer journey of self-discovery, our
work together can be tailored to meet your unique needs.
At its core, this method emphasizes the significance of childhood
experiences. These early interactions often influence relationships,
self-esteem, and coping mechanisms. By uncovering these hidden
patterns, individuals gain insight into their thoughts and feelings.
Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues,
or past trauma, therapy can provide valuable insights, coping
strategies, and support to help you overcome obstacles and live a more
fulfilling life. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard,
understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.
Finding the right therapist is a crucial first step in the therapeutic
process, and I understand that it can be difficult. To help you decide
if I am the right fit for you, I offer a free initial 30-minute
consultation. During this time, you can ask questions about therapy
and get a sense of how we might work together.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have successfully supported numerous clients in overcoming anxiety and depression by employing tailored therapeutic approaches that address their unique experiences and challenges.
I have worked in various refuges providing one-on-one counselling sessions for survivors of domestic violence, focusing on trauma recovery and empowerment.
With over a decade of experience working with individuals with autism and additional needs, I truly believe that each person is unique. I recognize that one approach may resonate profoundly with one individual while falling flat for another, and I strive to honour that diversity in my practice.
As an immigrant myself, I deeply understand the complexities of moving to a new country and the myriad challenges that come with it. I can speak fluently in Lithuanian and Russian, along with English, and I can offer therapy in all three languages to ensure that our communication feels comfortable and authentic.
My qualifications:
- BSc Psychology (Middlesex University)
- MSc Child and adolescent mental health (UCL)
- MA Psychodynamic Counselling (University of Essex)
Member organisations
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.
