I offer a holistic, mindfulness based and trauma-informed approach to mental health, personal growth and development. In my work with people, I combine years of work experience in the mental health sector with my knowledge in psychology, psychotherapy, mind-body connection and human neurophysiology.

I offer online sessions as well as option for face-to-face ones within the Birmingham/Staffordshire/Warwickshire area.

I'm a hypno-psychotherapist, licenced Mindfulness Teacher and I have a higher education in psychology, therefore my approach is vastly integrative and person-centred. As part of my ongoing professional development I've also completed other courses including a certificate in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy. I had the opportunity to learn from world-leading experts in topics of trauma, stress, psychosomatics, mind-body approaches and attachment theory.

In my career life I have worked in a range of mental health services from residential unit, community support centre, A&E department, crisis centre to forensic psychiatric unit. Throughout the years I've supported dozens of people manage and improve their mental health and wellbeing including individuals in a mental health crisis, those with diagnosed mental health conditions in recovery as well as people facing difficult socio-economical circumstances like homelessness, addictions or fleeing domestic violence. Currently, I work as a manager in a mental health support service.

My main mission as a therapist is creating a safe space where you can start understanding yourself and your experiences at a deeper level. Years of working with people have taught me that the key to creating a lasting change and healing in our lives is self-awareness and a kind compassionate ability to understand ourselves and our inner worlds.
