About me

I offer a calm, non-judgemental space where you can slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and feel genuinely heard. Together we can explore what brings you to therapy and look for ways to achieve your goals.

My approach is collaborative and integrative, and I work at your own pace. We’ll focus on what matters most in your world, exploring patterns with curiosity and compassion, and introducing practical tools when they’re helpful. I work relationally - meaning the quality of our connection is central - while drawing on evidence-informed ideas to fit your needs rather than forcing you into a rigid model. Sessions can be short-term and focused, or deeper, longer-term work.

I’m inclusive and welcoming of all backgrounds and identities.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a uk trained Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist , and I have been practising counselling and psychotherapy since 2016. My experience includes running 2 private practices in London as well as the NHS. I have also worked as a Specialist University Student Mentor and as a University Student Counsellor. I have worked with people from all walks of life and of all ages over the years, and everyone is welcome.

However, I have a special interest working with people who experience low mood, anxiety and/or complex grief, ADHD, OCD and more. Young people (16+) are also welcome. I am an LGBTQI+ Affirmative Counsellor. I can offer therapy both in Greek and in English.

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.
