My background
Whilst previously working in the fashion industry, I found myself plagued by a sense of meaninglessness about life. I was severely anxious with low self-esteem; I was lost, lonely, in chronic emotional pain, and felt my life lacked direction and purpose. Although this was my reality at the time, I had a gnawing sense that there must be more, there must be a way out of this. I found myself spending my spare time learning about my inner world - my past, my thought patterns, my emotions, my beliefs. I educated myself on the mechanisms of the mind, emotional processing, and how to heal trauma. With the help of therapy, I came face-to-face with my grief and learnt to feel safe in my body again. As I started to shed the layers of past trauma and pain that had been colouring my world grey, I discovered first-hand that real, life-altering change is possible.
Over time, I felt drawn to helping others who have also found themselves lost in the dark, looking for answers. This led me to leave the fashion industry to train as a psychotherapist, which I am deeply passionate about - it is an honour and a privilege to walk alongside others on their journeys. I also remain committed to my own personal and professional development, regularly engaging in further education, creative endeavours, nurturing practices, and relationships that enrich me.
Before starting my private practice, I have previously worked with Headstrong Counselling, as well as with students at the University of Greenwich. I now work with clients all over the world online over Zoom, from countries such as Australia, Bulgaria, Guatamala, Costa Rica, Israel, Palestine, America, Europe and Ireland, as well as with clients in person in my London spaces in Greenwich and King’s Cross.
