About me

I'm a qualified and BACP registered integrative counsellor, offering short-term and long-term therapy to adults, in both English and French.

I believe each client is a unique individual and I adapt the work in consequence. I work in a holistic way, attending not only to your thoughts, but also to your feelings, sensations and imagination. I also consider the working relationship between us as central to the therapy.

I'll offer you a warm and confidential space to explore what is troubling you. This might imply looking at your present and past experiences and relationships, as well as your place in the wider world and your more unconscious processes. At times, I might also suggest to work with images, visualizations and nature-based practices.

I’ll provide you with a space where you can talk freely, while being supported in an empathic, exploratory and, when appropriate, challenging way. My hope is to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your environment and identify new resources, thus retrieving a greater freedom in your choices.

Training, qualifications & experience

My background training is integrative and relational, drawing on the psychodynamic, humanistic and transpersonal theoretical teachings. As I developed my practice, I’ve grown an interest in ecopsychology and imagination, and more recently in complexity informed therapy, also known as nonlinear therapy.

I hold a diploma in counselling skills and a BACP-accredited diploma in therapeutic counselling.

I am also a certified nature and forest therapy guide and I hold an MA in English language and culture.

As a counsellor, I've worked with students from London South Bank University, asylum seekers and migrants at the Multi-Ethnic Counselling Service and people from all walks of life at Waterloo Community Counselling. I've helped my clients deal with issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, bereavement, low self-esteem and relationship problems among other things.

As a registered member of the BACP, I follow their code of ethics and I'm commited to continued professional development.
