About me

As a MA qualified counsellor, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), my experience in this field spans over ten years. The last four years of experience gained here in the United Kingdom, where I have achieved over 800 hours of patient work.

I have a proven track record of supporting patient’s in a variety of different settings. Fully committed to providing person centric support, which empowers patient’s to make informed, well-balanced and educated decisions.

My knowledge in this field is extensive, and includes different areas of theoretical counselling approaches and their application to real world settings, specifically Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

Extensive experience working with young adults, adults and elders with emotional disorders, anxiety, panic attack, depression, personality disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and addiction issues to name a few.

I helped patient’s to define goals and plan action, to achieve personal, social and educational development. Following the implementation of the treatment plans and therapeutic process, I monitored the patient’s progress through regular meetings. I provided behavioural health education and crisis intervention.

Apart from all the professional aspects of my career, on a personal level I am calm and collected, composed, patient and empathetic which I believe are important and imperative in this line of work. I believe in attention to detail and I am meticulous in everything I do, I am open to understand and treat anyone with respect and compassion.

If anything what I said resonates with you, don’t hesitate and contact me!

She has listened intently, been a friendly voice through difficult times and reminded me that there is so much good in the world!
