What to Expect When Working With Me
Therapy & Coaching:
This is collaborative and supportive process, where I offer a grounded, compassionate space for you to explore, experience and reconnect with yourself. I tailor each session to your needs, drawing on both talking and body-based approaches.
Complimentary discovery call:
Our work begins with a free phone consultation. This is a important first step to see whether we are the right fit for each other.
During the call, I will ask you about:
. What brings you to therapy or coaching
. What you hope to achieve from our sessions
. Any previous experience with therapy or coaching, if any at all.
I will also explain how I work and what you can expect from the process, and you will have the opportunity to ask any questions. There is no pressure or obligation, this is simply a chance to connect and see if it feels right for you.
Our Sessions:
They last 60 min are held either in person Warwick Avenue, London or online via Zoom, depending what feels most comfortable and accessible for you.
Self-care is an essential part of this process. I will check with you how you return to a regulated, parasympathetic state after being triggered, and what helps you stabilize. We will explore together what tools, practices, or support systems you might need to feel grounded and safe.
Most sessions begin with grounding, a moment to connect with your breath, body and present-moments sensations. I will then invite you to set an intention for the session, and from there, I guide the process in a way that honors your pace and needs.
Each client is different or at different place. Some are analytical, others feel deeply or may feel disconnected and numb. Some seek clarity,others need emotional processing and simply a safe space to be. I adapt approaches while keeping your intention in focus.
I recommend weekly sessions on the same day and time. In case you need to cancel I require 48 hours notice.
Scar or Deep Tissue Massage:
Before your first session, I will ask you to complete a short intake form to ensure the treatment is suitable for you and to make me aware of any relevant medical conditions or contradictions.
If you are within my travel area, I am happy to come to you with all the necessary equipment. Alternatively, you are welcome to visit me in Warwick Avenue.
To prepare:
. Please remove any jewelry
. Tie up long hair
.There is no need to bring or prepare anything, just relax and enjoy the session.
If you need to cancel, I require 48 hours notice.

”From my own experience, gaining insight into my beliefs, patterns and trauma responses was valuable, but it wasn’t enough. Real lasting change came when I began to feel the strength and resilience within me. It took commitment to self-care and willingness to be consistent, honest and have courage and self-compassion. It is not always easy, but it is absolutely worth it.”
