What I can offer…

As a Psychosynthesis counsellor I am able to hold both your present challenges as well as have an open mind as to what may be trying to emerge for you at times where you may struggle to see clearly. My aim as a counsellor is to provide a reflective and non-judgemental space to explore any issues for you in a containing and confidential manner. I am committed to meet you where you are and support you to explore familiar and also undiscovered parts of yourself in a pace that is comfortable for you. Greater awareness about your own processes may then help and resource you to look at yourself and the world in a different light and empower you to make more conscious choices for yourself.

I work with various issues from anxiety, depression, bereavements and relationship issues but particularly enjoy working with clients wanting to explore cultural issues, trauma, finding a deeper purpose in their life and self-esteem issues. I also have experience in working with victims of modern slavery who have experienced significant forms of exploitations and trauma. Throughout the years, I have been privileged working with clients from all different walks of life and have always valued the building and nurturing of the therapeutic relationship in the therapy room.

By now you may be wondering what Psychosynthesis is…

Psychosynthesis is a psycho-spiritual approach and draws its influences from most popular psychology approaches out there today as well as far Eastern philosophies, which makes it a well-rounded and all inclusive model. Psychosynthesis looks at our personal struggles as pathways to deepen our understanding for personal and spiritual growth, rather than something we ought to fix or push away. Through engaging with all parts of ourselves, which includes paying attention to our body, feelings, mind and spirit, we endeavour to connect with a greater sense of wholeness, intuition and creativity to awaken a deeper sense of who we truly are.

 

… and this is how I work ….

Explorations with my clients are most often facilitated through dialogue. To deepen their experience, I sometimes use guided visualisations, meditations, drawings, imagery work or body work when appropriate to the client.

I meet clients for 50/55 minutes counselling sessions on a one-to-one basis or with couples . Sessions are held weekly at my practices in London Bridge (SE1) or online. I work in English, German and Tagalog (Filipino).

Depending on your needs from therapy, we can agree to meet on a short-term basis (8-12 sessions) to address a specific issue or long-term for deeper explorations of themes and patterns in your life that may have shaped who you are today.
