About me and what I can offer

I am a Core Process Psychotherapist (a mindfulness based Psychotherapy) and have been I have been running a Private Practice since 2011.  

During this time, I have supported people who are working through various mental and emotional health challenges, including anxiety, depression, P.T.S.D, addictions, and relationship issues. 

I see and understand these challenges to be symptoms of unresolved trauma.

 My work is underpinned by Buddhist principles and practice and is strongly influenced by Jungian and Humanistic psychology as well as Family Constellation principles and Shamanic Practice.

I offer a warm, non-judgmental, and safe space where you can explore the feelings, the thoughts, and relational patterns which get in the way of you living your life to your full potential.

To support this process, I can include the practice of guided meditation, body scans, body movement, artwork, dream work and journal writing.

These practices can help you to increase your self-awareness by supporting  you to come in to your body and gain a deeper understanding of who you are, where you are right now, and what direction you might want to take. 

I know how difficult it is to make that first step and ask for help from someone you have never met, so I would like to welcome you to give me a call or send me an email to arrange an initial session.

This way we will have the opportunity to meet, and you can then work out if I am the right therapist for you.

I look forward to hearing from you soon

Additional information

I was raised in Greece by a Greek father and English mother and speak both languages.

I have a wealth of life experience and have travelled down many paths in my life. By this I mean that many of the issues people bring to the space are like the issues I have battled with.  

Alongside my Private Practice, I have been working in voluntary and statutory sector.  (N.H.S, Homelessness and Drug and Alcohol Services, Women's Services). Here, I have gained experience of working with the more complex issues faced by women, such as the impact of sex working/sex trafficking, domestic violence, substance misuse and declining mental health

I hold a master's degree in Core Process Psychotherapy, I am a registered member of B.A.C.P and in regular Supervision.
