About me

Anxious? Depressed? Lonely? Come and talk about it. Together we can start a positive change.

I am an experienced, qualified therapeutic counsellor and I can offer you a safe place to talk about your concerns. I use the person centered approach. It is an evidence based therapy where healing happens in a warm, honest and trusting relationship between the therapist and the client. I will never judge you and I will display unconditional positive regard and empathy, whatever issues you might be having. I also work with other therapeutic methods to meet my clients needs.

Our conversations are confidential and I follow the ethical guidelines of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

I have helped people struggling with anxiety, depression, loss, post traumatic stress disorder, relationship problems, self-esteem issues and more. I really care about my clients and I am dedicated to helping them – and you.

Worried about climate change? I am specializing in eco-therapy, climate grief and psychology of hope.

Feeling rootless or different? I have a multicultural background. I know how it feels to belong to a minority and start your life in a new place and in a new country. I offer counselling also in Finnish and Swedish.

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.
