Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am licensed in the UK with 3 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, abuse, motivation, self-esteem, & confidence. I also have experience working with depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seek a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
I would describe myself as a responsible, enthusiastic, and deeply empathetic person who cares about supporting others through life’s challenges. At the heart of my work is the belief that every person has the potential to grow, heal, and discover their inner strength. Sometimes, they just need the right space and guidance to do so.
In the therapy room, I bring warmth, openness, and curiosity. I see my role as walking alongside you, creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely and honestly. My approach is person-centred and rooted in empathy, which means I listen carefully, meet you where you are, and work with you to find the path forward that feels right for you.
I am particularly passionate about helping people build self-confidence, regulate their emotions, and find a deeper sense of meaning and purpose in life. My background in both counselling and positive psychology allows me to support clients in processing difficulties such as depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, or stress, while also focusing on strengths, resilience, and personal growth.
Beyond therapy, I am someone who values connection, communication, and lifelong learning. My varied life experiences, from working as an interpreter and advocate to managing a business, have shaped me into someone who understands different walks of life and can relate to people from diverse backgrounds.
My goal is always the same: to empower you to feel heard, supported, and capable of making the changes you want to see in your life. Together, we can work not only on overcoming challenges but also on building a future that feels fulfilling and true to you.

Many people wonder whether therapy delivered online can truly help. For common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can choose the mode of connection that suits them best, whether that is a video call, a phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients are free to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be better. The convenience and variety of online formats make it an accessible option for many people seeking support with everyday mental health concerns.
