About me

Yes, at some point of this amzing life, we all experience what you are going through, you are not alone!

I am a Psychotherapist/Researcher and Artist qualified and specialised,, naturally passionate about people and relationships on Planet Earth. I also created two Therapies in Psychology available in my book ``The Power of Acting Today Now. The Therapy of Acting Today Now``, available on Amazon ( Coming soon in English language). Plus The Therapy of Pleasure.

I offer commitment, transparency and experience to your therapy experience to support you to reach a place where you feel more content and in control of your life. I therefore seek to make this as easy and as enjoyable as possible by offering you warmth, respect and love. I work with individuals, couples and groups.
My practice includes children, teenagers and adults who are exploring and addressing all types of life events and issues which include sexuality, obsessive compulsive disorder, self identity, relationships, childhood trauma, single event trauma, depression, anxiety, stress post traumatic disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, addictions eg drug, alcohol, sex, internet, shopping, pornography.
I believe that finding the right therapist leads to feeling safe thereby allowing exploration to take place and your awareness and changes to emerge.
