I began my therapeutic work in 2003. At first, however, I studied the law. It took me time to notice that it was not the most suitable way of life for me, it took more time for me to figure out what the right path may be. However, going through the process of discovering this path has been invaluable.

In my work, I assist clients in their journey of discovery and transformation.

My job is to alleviate a person(s) suffering and pain. Often the pain appears when our current ability to cope with a challenge is exceeded by the intensity/severity/chronicity of our situation.

Feeling overwhelmed cuts us off our own internal resources. My job as a therapist (whether working with individuals, couples, families or groups) is to reconnect you with your own wisdom, experiences, knowledge or skills and based on those build new resources (should that be useful).

I have a versatile set of skills I will be drawing on when working with you. My background in is psychology (MSc. earned in my country of origin), systemic family psychotherapy (MSc. earned in the UK). Those are examples of my mainstream training and practice.

However, I have always been drawn to out of mainstream methods. In my work, I combine the best of the two worlds.
Therefore, if necessary I offer trauma treatment like EMDR, AIT (Advanced Integrative Therapy) or NLP, Time Line Therapy, Ho’Opono’Pono, Focusing, or Mindfulness for Anxiety and Depression.

I would also use Brief Solution Focused Therapy, Attachment Based Family Therapy (ABFT), Mentalisation Based Therapy (MBT) for Parents, Mentalisation Based Therapy for Children, Non Violent Resistance Programme to support parents of adolescents who are violent or self-destructive.

If you are noticing your relationships have become a source of distress – your relationships’ with yourself, with your loved ones or family members, friends or co-workers no longer fulfil you, my style of working may help assist you.

In my therapy practice, I have worked with clients experiencing some of the following:
Relationship difficulties: with children, partners, family members; an impact of trauma including intergenerational trauma; depression, anxiety, addiction, bereavement and loss; understanding and supporting families where a member(s) present with symptoms of ADHD, ASD, phobias, OCD; self-harm; child on parent violence.

I have worked for the NHS since 2008. My current role is working part-time as a specialist family therapist and lead for NVR (non-violent resistance programme) in a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service. I also co-work with Tavistock Relationships as a freelance therapist working with couples using MBT.

I offer 30 minutes consultation prior to starting therapeutic work – please, book your free of charge slot to discuss your needs and way forward.
