I am a licensed Psychotherapeutic Counsellor based in the UK. I place the therapeutic relationship at the centre of my approach and make sure that I treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Overall, I would describe myself as an integrative humanistic therapist who emphasizes in building strong therapeutic relationships through genuineness, warmth, empathy, and unconditional positive regard.
I utilize evidence-based practices and I strive to support, encourage, educate and empower my clients. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Together we'll work side by side to help strengthen awareness, communication and increase personal growth. We will also identify strengths, patterns, coping skills and increase confidence. I take pride in what I do and I am passionate about my work.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship problems, family conflicts, & coping with grief and loss. I have also experience working with first responders and emergency medical dispatchers. Taking the first step to seek a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
