About me and my therapy practice
A warm welcome, I am Lena, and I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor. I remember when I was looking for a therapist, how daunting it felt at times with the thought of opening up to a therapist. I firmly believe that it is the relationship that you and I create together that has the poetential to heal. You might be struggling with challenges such as relationships, work commitments and feeling overwhelmed. During these times, it can be invaluable to have someone who can walk alongside you. During our sessions, I will endavour to sit beside you and support you in all your ups and downs that life brings. I offer you warmth, compassion and a trusting space where we can together explore the issues you bring to the sessions at you own pace.
I have an extensive background in massage and aromatherapy which has helped me develop a deep understanding and insight into the body and mind connection and how one is influenced and informed be the other. My approach is holistic, meaning that I will consider and equally value your emotions, thoughts and your body sense. I see clients from a variety of racial, socio-economic, religious and gender backgrounds and across a wide age range. I have extensive experience working in the mental health sector, within the NHS, and from this work, I know how challenging as well as lonely it can be to be in the world. I believe that not two people are the same and I acknowledge the uniqueness in you . I bring compassion and empathy and a wisdom that comes from my own life experience.
I work in Brighton and Hove, and I offer online sessions anywhere in the UK. I have a postgraduate diploma in Humanistic Counselling and Psychotherapy.
