About me
Hello and welcome! I'm an experienced integrative psychotherapist and currently training in Nature allied psychotherapy.
Why nature?
Spending time in nature has a soothing effect and can reduce anxiety and stress, help you feel more grounded and more connected to the world around you.
Working therapeutically in nature means I use a holistic approach and look at an overall wellbeing, not just your symptoms. Nature is part of the therapy session and as well as exploring your dilemmas and difficulties, we will include her in our conversations.
How does it work?
All sessions take place outdoors - in a park or woodlands in South London. You are invited to be in nature the way it makes you feel comfortable. You do not need any experiences or special skill in nature, only curiosity and willingness to explore - your relationship with others, yourself and nature.
I will have a phone conversation prior meeting with you outdoors.
We will agree on a day, time, location of therapy. Session lasts 1 hour.
Initially, I offer 6 sessions to help understand how nature therapy works and how it may help you, and if I am the right therapist for you. After this, we may agree to end, to have another 6 sessions or an open ended process.
My approach
I have a deep-rooted belief in the interconnectedness between mental health and natural environment. My approach to therapy integrates evidence-based practices such as mindfulness, body work and psychodynamic approach with building a relationship with nature.
I invite collaboration, actively acknowledging and respecting each individual's cultural beliefs and values. Additionally, I recognize the impact of race, gender, sexuality, religion, socio-economic circumstances, power and ability amongst others as well as current events in the world on the person's experiences and well-being. I strive to ensure that therapy is tailored to the unique needs and perspectives of each person, fostering a safe and supportive environment for exploration, healing, and growth.
