About me
As an experienced Integrative Holistic Counsellor, I am dedicated to helping you find clarity, stability, and purpose in your life. Whether you seek individual, couples, or group therapy, I provide a safe, confidential, and supportive space for you to explore and heal.
I welcome clients from all backgrounds, genders, sexualities, religions, disabilities, cultures, ethnicities, and ages. My approach is flexible and tailored to meet your unique needs, using a systemic holistic method and psychogenealogy to uncover and address patterns of behavior. Together, we will identify and overcome the blockages you are currently facing.
In our sessions, you will feel understood, respected, and valued. You will gain the tools and confidence to make empowered decisions and heal negative patterns. I believe that true health, growth, and happiness stem from meaningful and fulfilling connections with ourselves and others. By revealing the underlying causes of your disturbances, we can focus your efforts on feeling empowered and unlocking your true potential.
Take the first step towards a brighter future. Let’s work together to reveal, heal, and thrive.

I have been working with Ioana for over 6 months now and she is everything one could ask for in a therapist. She offers me many points of view, she has a vast variety of methods, always quickly to hand and not afraid to ask the hard questions. I have defeated fears and anxieties with her, built my self confidence and created ease in so many points of my life. I took a break from therapy for 3 months, but when it came time for help again, I went straight back to Ioana. Thank you ❤️
