My approach

My approach to psychotherapy combines modern scientific methods with personalized strategies to support individuals and companies on their journey toward a conscious and fulfilling life. I aim to equip everyone with the skills to manage their psyche and soul, guiding those who recognize the need for change by providing the necessary tools for transformation.

I offer a wide range of therapy forms, including cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), Dialectical-Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Positive Psychology and Mindfulness, as well as innovative approaches that I find particularly valuable. I offer my services individually, in groups, and as follow-up treatments. My hybrid therapy concept includes online sessions, along with supportive courses and exercises for home use.

The core values of my practice include understanding and empathy, professional competence, availability and flexibility, safety and confidentiality, and solution-oriented approaches. I value cultural and linguistic adaptability, a holistic approach that considers all aspects of well-being, and specializations in specific areas. I strive to convey safety and competence through my empathetic and respectful approach, backed by extensive personal experience and education.

Furthermore, I offer short-term appointments to prevent minor crises from escalating. My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable and receive the support you need to actively and satisfactorily shape your life.​​

My goal is to listen, understand and help with ​reason(s) for coming to therapy that can bring ​relief short-term, and show you the tools and ​wisdom to be able to handle similar issues in the ​future.

Qualifications and experience

Education
2018 PHD Psychology (Bsc Honours) from the Open University 2019-2020 Masters in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy at the International University of Valencia
Experience
2020-today Running a Private practice called 'Feeling and Healing Psychotherapy' Working online as a Psychotherapist independently has allowed me to gain experience with working with clients with different backgrounds and experiences. This includes working with people with major anxiety disorder to couples wanting to work on their relationships. Clients found me through using Freelance websites such as It’s complicated, Psychology Today, It’s complicated and more. Contact between us was mainly through videoconference, emails, and chat. This experience has helped me improve the important skills as a counsellor; being compassionate, being in tune with the clients and their needs and wants, being authentic and reliable, and building a trusting rapport with the client. 2020-2021 Counselling in training with Fernando Herrer. I had the pleasure of working with one of the most experienced and professional psychotherapists in the field of Acceptance and Commitment therapy. He taught me how to perform ACT sessions from start to finish. I have had extensive practice using these structured sessions in my own practice and have had regular successful results. 2020-2021 Counselling in training with Jose Olid. During this training, I would accompany Jose alongside other people in his sessions to learn from his technique. He also showed me commonly used techniques used in the Cognitive Behavioural Field to treat mostly anxiety and depression. 2020 Masters (MC) in 3rd Generational Cognitive Behavioural Therapies. 2019 Bachelors (Honours) in Psychology with The Open University.
