About me

About me

I help you to change your limiting believes that prevent you from reaching your goals so you can amplify your life success.

I grew up in Italy and moved to UK in 1998 to live and work in London. I spent several years working in travelling and banking industries before changing my career into Counselling, Hypnotherapy and Life coaching, drawn to it because whilst in my corporate work I became very interested in the "human" that was inside the role. I also encouraged my friends and colleagues to fulfil their full potential. I finally understood that by empowering them, they empowered others and that created a ripple effect around them. Since then, that ripple has become bigger and bigger as I decided to be a "rippler" as a profession. I now feel much happier and fulfilled so is the experience of many of my clients at the end of the therapy.

My approach

I am an integrative humanistic counsellor, which means that I see you as having innate resources and potential to draw on and develop. I believe that we have the answers we need within us that need to be discovered, we can be trusted to find our own way out of our difficulties, we have a natural tendency to grow and change.

What can you expect from counselling? 

A peaceful and creative space in which you can find the answers that are right for you and develop your own unique potential. I try my best to understand how the world looks through your eyes, what feels like to be in your shoes. I accept you as you are, without judgement. I will not tell you what to do but "walk" alongside you, following your path, assisting you in finding your own solutions. I will provide a safe, understanding and supportive relationship.

Arts Therapy

Using the arts in sessions can be helpful in expressing feelings that are difficult to talk about. It can also help us to unlock creative energy and find new solutions.

Nature Alignment - Walk and Talk Therapy

Nature Alignment is a way of working with the psyche through nature. In Nature Alignment, nature becomes a mirror of our internal world. The line between the internal and external worlds is arbitrary. Through exploring where we end and the other begins we discover that far from being separate there is a synchronicity which challenges the fixed idea of who we are and what is our goal in life and helps us to see beyond the fixed patterns imposed by our defending egos. Through Nature Alignment we explore our connection with all other forms of life. The emphasis is on observing the world as it is rather than analysing it so we can let the natural world getting in and through it we can see reflections of our deeper selves. Sessions are held in Hampstead Heath (London).

Pet Therapy

In my therapy room there are cats that can be part of the healing process, should you choose too. Cats can be kept away should you not want them in the therapy room.

Hypnotherapy process

Hypnotherapy is a unique therapeutic process. It is a healing by trance state of awareness. Hypnotherapy attempts to address the client's subconscious mind. The hypnotherapist is a guide facilitating our inborn ability to change as desired, because all the power is already in the mind us through experiencing hypnosis. In addition to accessing our inner potential, hypnotherapy also addresses our inner resources to effect beneficial changes. It is the innate healing capacity of our own body that may be stimulated by hypnotherapy.

Hypnotherapy - the way I work

I guide you in a relaxed state by utilising a wide range of techniques from story telling, metaphor or symbolism, whatever is meaningful for you, to also offering direct suggestions for beneficial change. I also teach you self-hypnosis. Some hypnotherapy techniques attempt to uncover problems deemed to lie in our past life or hypnotherapy might concentrate more on our present life.

Hypnotherapy can help with: 

Panic attacks, anxiety and stress

Sleeping problems

Anxious about pain (e.g. giving birth, IBS)

Lack of confidence and low self-esteem

Fear of examinations, Driving test, Public speaking and performance anxiety

Phobias and fear (e.g.of heights, of flying, of Dentists)

Unwanted habits (eg. Smoking, overeating)

Achieving our goals

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.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy

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).
