I believe that every human being, most of all, is striving for freedom. This could be a freedom from dependency on anything we use to compensate or self-regulate (food, drugs, shopping, etc). Freedom from compulsive thoughts, anxiety and depression. Or, this could be the freedom that we are all aware of but lost or unable to assign a deeper meaning to, to navigate to a more authentic direction in life. In my clinical practice, the methods I use are all aimed at assisting in the awareness, comprehension and embodiment of freedom.
As a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, with over 18 years of experience, I worked in private practice and public sector in UK and Europe.  I also worked extensively as a resident psychologist in the not-for-profit sector, in Place2Be, AgeUK, Women's Centre and Counselling Initiatives.
The main principles of my therapeutic work are rooted in mutual respect, openness and trust. Every personal internal world is unique, fragile, and sometimes a very raw and hurt internal ground. Therefore, every person deserves my full attention, genuine interest, care and a specifically tailored approach to his or her internal world.

One part of my practice is aimed at helping to clarify and define most Existential questions (Who am I? The purpose of my existence? Where do I truly want to take my life? How can I do it in more authentic ways?). Another part of my clinical practice works with PTSD (isolated incidents) and complex trauma (series of chronic abuse, bullying, and neglect).

I treat most psychological issues using conventional talking therapy and fast-acting techniques such as EMDR, Focusing, Mindfulness and CBT. In the last few years, I have gravitated towards the embodied therapeutic practices such as Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Deep Brain Reorienting.
