About me
Hi, I'm Antalia!
I'm an integrative therapist and am here to hear your story. There's such power in being witnessed, and as my training and passion permits, I am here to provide you with a safe and compassionate space to explore your emotional needs, at your pace.
How do I work? Well, my training allows me to draw on varied therapeutic approaches, such as person-centred, psychodynamic or CBT. Sometimes in therapy, the work requires focus on the emotions in the "here and now", and other times, it may take you on a path to childhood or past memories.
Ultimately, I will work alongside you with what you choose to bring, and I'll be your non-judgemental, listening ear as we navigate your feelings and experiences together.
No matter how you have shown up or what has brought you here, I welcome you to this space. It's positive that you are looking for support, or perhaps, you may just be curious to understanding what therapy is all about.
Whatever your reasons, I hope you find what you are looking for and you're welcome to send me a message or email me with any questions.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have worked with clients aged 18+, exploring issues such as: depression, anxiety, body image, eating disorders, self-harm, childhood abuse, stress, self-esteem, grief, sexuality, and transitions to college or university. I have also worked with neurodivergent individuals and adapt sessions to suit their unique and evolving needs.
I am open to working with clients aged 11+.
I offer in person, online and phone sessions.
I've worked in the mental health field for 12 years, having previous experience at a mental health charity and a London based eating disorder clinic.
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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
Areas of counselling I deal with
Other areas of counselling I deal with
Navigating new identity shifts in parenthood and motherhood.
If you’re finding motherhood harder to navigate than you expected - if you're carrying the weight of expectations, adjusting to a changing body, or feeling unsure of yourself in this new role - you’re not alone.
I offer a gentle, reflective space where you can explore these shifts at your own pace, make sense of what’s changing, uncover what feels important to you now, and find a steadiness in the midst of this new chapter.

Further information
Know that is ok to turn up and to feel however you do. I am not here to judge, after all.
Starting anything new can feel challenging, and that is why I believe starting and even contemplating therapy is such a brave choice. Already, I wholly respect you.
