How I work

In the last few years, both before and since the pandemic, I have been working online. I believe that online work can be beneficial for clients who wish to be seen from the comfort of their own space or who work remotely or abroad. Online therapy allows individuals to access support from anywhere, maximising the effectiveness of the therapeutic process. I am here to offer you the utmost care and a warm connection through SKYPE, ZOOM, MT, FACETIME, and so forth. I provide a non-judgmental and collaborative approach to therapy that fosters self-development and aids in the exploration of problems and their meanings to you. Moreover, I am completely devoted to the ethics of my role to support you, regardless of your background or the person you aspire to be. Neurodiversity is a vital part of my own identity, which I cherish and respect.

 I practice as an integrative therapist, which falls within the Humanistic school of therapy, including Existential, Person-Centred,  Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Feminist Therapy. I also work with IFS and couples.

Humanistic Therapy (Person Centred and Existential)

Humanistic Therapies focus on self-development, growth, and responsibilities. I seek to help individuals recognise their own strengths, creativity, and choices in the ‘here and now’. Within the person-centred framework, every individual has vast resources within themselves to grow and become the person they want to become. The Person Centred Therapy recognises the deeper core self to be encouraged for self-actualisation, so you become the person you are, and you want to become, whereas Existential Therapy gives you a chance to explore a particular situation to clarify your meanings, values and your priorities in your life for a positive and empowering change with the sense of freedom and choice that you have within yourself.

Feminist Therapy

Clients are encouraged to explore their individual identity, focus on their strengths, and, by doing so, begin to feel greater power in society at large. As a feminist therapist, I may employ tools and techniques such as role-playing and assertiveness explorations to help clients build their identity and self-esteem to the extent that they can be free of societal pressure to be a certain way and slowly work towards becoming themselves.  A core aspect of feminist therapy is power analysis, or the consideration of how differences in power and privilege between genders or various social or demographic groups can affect feelings of self-worth, mental health symptoms, routine behaviours, and life choices. We will together unpick what role and effects the gender dynamics may play in your relationship

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)

We examine the role of your cognitions—thoughts, feelings, and behaviour – your experience of being here and now. By becoming more aware of your thinking patterns, you can begin to identify those that are more and less positive and replace the less positive ones with thoughts that are helpful and empowering, facilitating your journey towards positive change. CBT is an evidence-based therapy that has proven effective for many in improving how we feel about ourselves, others, and the world around us.

Internal Family Systems Therapy – (IFS)

This model has always held a special place in my heart, and I am delighted to work with the techniques that can assist you. It is all about connectedness—internal connectivity enables you to stay in touch and hold your loved ones close to your heart, allowing you to remain attuned to yourself and those dear to you.

Couples

If you are facing a relationship issue or experiencing difficulties in your marriage, there is always a solution. You need not accept anything less, and therapy provides an alternative way of being that may be more fulfilling for both of you. I can offer you sessions online from the comfort of your own home to work through your issues together or individually. These issues may be affecting the way you feel about yourself and your loved ones around you. Therapy can help to find an amicable solution to improve your relationship and move forward.
