About me
Hello, I’m a qualified Integrative Counselling Therapist and a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I offer a warm, safe, and supportive space where you can explore your current and past experiences, deepen your understanding of yourself, and find ways of coping and growing which feel right for you.
My approach is empathic and non-judgemental. I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely heard, accepted, and understood. Together, we can gently explore feelings and patterns that may feel painful, confusing, hidden, or difficult to put into words, and make sense of how they may be affecting your life today.
You might be feeling anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, or alone, struggling with relationships, old patterns, or painful memories. You may be wanting to feel more confident, authentic, or connected to yourself or to others. Therapy with me offers a space to explore these experiences safely, understand where they come from, and find ways forward that feel meaningful and lasting.
I often draw on attachment-focused work, exploring how early experiences can shape the way we relate to ourselves and others in the present. This can help bring awareness to repeating patterns, support healing of past wounds, and open up more fulfilling ways of connecting. As an integrative therapist, I tailor my approach to you, drawing from person-centred, psychodynamic, and existential perspectives, always working at a pace that feels respectful and manageable.
I believe each person has an innate drive toward growth and wellbeing, even when this becomes obscured by painful experiences or the pressures of everyday life. In therapy, we can gently shine a light on parts of yourself that may have had to remain hidden, supporting you to live more fully and authentically.
One of my favourite metaphors for therapy is exploring a cave. You are the expert on your own cave, your inner world, your history, your experiences. My role is to bring the torch, helping us carefully illuminate what’s been hidden so you can move forward with greater clarity and strength.
Reaching out for therapy is a brave first step. I offer a free 20–30 minute consultation (phone or online), giving you a chance to get a feel for how we might work together and to ask any questions, with no obligation.
I offer therapy in English and Romanian.

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.

Further information
In my practice as a counselling therapist, I have worked with a number of different clients, presenting a wide range of characteristics. In my opinion, a therapist can empathise with things that they might never be able to encounter in their lives, which makes this line of work so fruitful.
I provide a free 30 minute call consultation, session in which we would discuss the reason why you would like to start therapy, some things about the way I work and decide whether you would like to continue working with me.
I can offer therapy in English and Romanian.
