I am credentialed in the UK with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience working with children and young people, adolescents and adults from different nationalities and who live all over the world.
Throughout the years in clinical practice, I have helped clients with a wide range of psychological difficulties such as stress and anxiety, LGBTQ+ related issues, motivation, self-esteem, lack of confidence, depression, OCD, PTSD, relationship difficulties, and mental health difficulties to name but a few. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
I very much look forward to journeying with you.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

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.
