About me

Hello, I'm Adina, a licensed Therapeutic Counsellor in the UK with over 5 years of dedicated professional experience. I am trained in Person Centred and Psychodynamic Modalities, however my approach is integrative and holistic.

I work with clients from Europe and other continents.

My background encompasses assisting clients in areas such as empowering their internal dialogue (the most important work and focus in the sessions!), motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, as well as navigating healing ancestral family patterns, relationships, career challenges and adapting to life's transitions.

I am committed to fostering personal growth while guiding individuals on their journeys to heal past wounds and manage future anxieties.

As a lifelong learner and staunch advocate for personal development, I'm on a mission to empower people worldwide with simple yet potent healing techniques that can transform lives and businesses.

I truly believe that each person is full of inner resources that they can tap in any given situation. I use therapy (and other holistic modalities, including energy work when it suits the client) as a channel for people to remember and tap into their inner resources. For example, the same way that you remember a negative memory from the past, you can remember a positive one too.

With a versatile background spanning 11 years, to complement traditional counselling, I bring extensive expertise as a Reiki Master, and Quantum Flow Practitioner, Business Coach and Mentor, among other roles.

I firmly believe that you hold the expertise in your own life story, and I'm here to support your journey toward a more fulfilling and joyful life. Taking that initial step towards self-improvement and healing is an act of courage, and I'm honoured to be part of your process.

The foundation of the work we do together is guiding you back into your Personal Power.

This transformation happens primarily through powerful HeartHealing guided visualisations, designed to gently access the deeper layers of your emotional and energetic system.

At the core of this work is the healing of the five fundamental heart wounds that silently influence how we think, feel, relate and create our lives:

• The Not Good Enough wound
• The Love wound
• The Trust wound
• The Worth wound
• The Acceptance wound

Through HeartHealing visualisations, we create a safe inner space where these wounds can be acknowledged, softened and transformed. As this healing unfolds, your nervous system begins to settle, your inner dialogue changes, and a deeper sense of safety and self-trust starts to emerge.

To support this process, we also work with a simple and powerful energetic awareness exercise called The Red Rose. This technique helps neutralise emotional charge, allowing you to move from automatic reaction into conscious response.

Another supportive practice comes from the Hawaiian mantra Ho'oponopono:

I'm sorry.
Please forgive me.
I love you.
Thank you.

In my work, I also introduce an additional statement that can become one of the most empowering shifts in your inner language:

I give myself permission to…

The first four statements are directed to your Inner Child, creating space for compassion and emotional repair.
The fifth statement — Permission — speaks to the capable, confident and conscious adult within you, allowing new patterns and choices to emerge.

From this place, real transformation begins.

Thank you for considering me as your guide.

If you feel called to explore this work, reach out today and let’s work together to create positive and lasting change in your life.

FOR COUPLES THERAPY

In couples therapy, I use the same comprehensive and holistic approach as I do in individual therapy.

I focus on showing couples how to slow down and connect with each other during difficult times, while they are in distress. By encouraging emotional vulnerability and intimacy, I help partners communicate more openly and support each other better. This approach helps strengthen their bond and improve their relationship.
Before having the first session you will both have to individually complete a short assessment/questionnaire. I would need this sent to me BEFORE the session. Thank you.
