About me and my therapy practice
I am a Professional Integrative Person-Centred Counsellor and a registered member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ) since 2013. With extensive experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, my approach is tailored to your unique needs, drawing from various therapeutic modalities to offer a holistic and personalised experience.
I believe in fostering a non-judgmental and empathetic space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. Together, we can work towards understanding and overcoming your challenges, promoting personal growth, emotional healing, and resilience.
