About me

I have experience treating mood disorders, anxiety and depression, panic attacks, dissociation and feelings of emptiness, working gender and sexuality issues, identity crisis, trauma and family struggles originated in childhood. I tailor the way I work according to you because no two people are the same. As a therapist I am approachable, warm and I will prompt you to look into your past and present relationships to make sense and understand your present difficulties. Central to my work is the understanding of the unconscious mind to facilitate awareness of yourself and perhaps elicit change. I offer both short term focus and long-term open ended therapy to adults of diverse backgrounds, gender and sexual orientations. I can offer you a first free consultation which will give you a sense of how I work and see if we are suitable to work together, it will also help you decide if you want to engage with therapy. I welcome the LGBT community and people from diverse and minority backgrounds and ethnic groups, students and professionals. The sessions last 50 minutes and are usually held at the same day and time of the week. I have also experience working with professionals with a busy lifestyle who need flexibility to schedule their sessions. Once you get in touch with me I will aim to answer you within 48 hours.
