Professional Developmemt

I am deeply committed to continuous learning and professional development, ensuring that my therapeutic practice remains informed, effective, and responsive to the unique needs of each individual I work with.

​

Building on my Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling, I have undertaken a wide range of specialist training and workshops. At the core of my approach is a passion for creative, trauma-informed practice. I believe in the healing potential of safe, expressive, and collaborative spaces where the therapeutic process can unfold at each person’s own pace.

​

Whether through talk therapy, creative exploration, or body-based awareness, my aim is to support clients in reconnecting with their inner resources and cultivating lasting emotional resilience.
