About me
With over 20 years of clinical practice , I have learned that while we can change our scenery, we often carry our internal architecture with us.
You might find yourself in a new country, job or relationship, yet feel the old sense of being “stuck”, a familiar low self esteem, or a recurring pattern in how you relate to yourself or others that no longer serves you.
I work with people who feel their creative or personal vitality has hit a plateau. Often, this “stuckness” is the echo of past experiences that are still alive in the present, affecting how you see yourself today.
I offer a space to understand and unwrap the old beliefs and patterns holding you back , restore your sense of agency and move towards a more authentic way of living.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
EMDRRecommended for those dealing with trauma who want to process painful memories in a structured way to reduce their emotional impact.
Holistic approachRecommended for those who want to address their mental health through a balanced focus on mind, body, and spirit.
My approach is insight-led and focused on restoration. I integrate EMDR not as a clinical formula , but as a gentle way to process those emotional knots that keep you repeating unhelpful cycles. We use it to “unlock” the present, clearing the path so you can move forward with more lightness and confidence.
Currently my work focuses on:
- Individuals adults seeking to understand and change recurring life patterns.
- Expats and creatives navigating the gap between where they are and how they feel.
- Personal growth : moving beyond old “stuck” versions of yourself.
Please note: to ensure the best focus for my clients, I work exclusively with individuals and do not offer couple therapy sessions or acute crises management for personality disorders.
