Miss Thomson is a wonderful therapist. She managed to make me feel relieved even at the times when I was feeling that my overwhelming thoughts will storm me away from this planet. I feel like she is a great professional who knows how to balance between the mood swings of her clients. She is also very attentive as she did not only give me homework’s and techniques that will help me with my anxiety, but also remembered where we left at the previous sessions. She is an amazing therapist, and I bet she is even a greater person in her personal life.
More about Ina
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am licensed in the UK with over 30 years being involved in personal growth, and 4 1/2 years of professional work experience as a therapist. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I listen deeply to my clients and believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and therapy plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to get to know yourself better, face the uncomfortable , come into more acceptance of yourself and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. I am working within a humanistic framework, which means I believe in everyone's creative potential, and innate ability to change. I use a variety of approaches, including challenging negative thoughts (CBT) and behaviour patterns. My training included also working with trauma and regulation of the nervous system. A lot of my work involves identifying triggers of strong reactions, relating those to past experiences which were overwhelming, understanding the nervous system and its response to stress and trauma. I have experience working with highly sensitive people. I offer a listening space if needed, or a more structured approach , where we set goals and work with practical tools to address symptoms of stress. My sessions can be held in the languages of English and German.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
