Hello, and thanks for checking out my profile. I’m an
integrative counsellor of British-Cypriot origin based
in the Western Pyrenees, near Pau. I offer face-to-face
and online sessions (and a mix of the two), providing a
welcoming, confidential space for people to explore how
they are, where they are and who they are. I practice in
an open way that is sensitive to the individual, but
informed by my understanding of human development,
relationships and trauma.
My style is natural, friendly and authentic, and I work
collaboratively with each client, bringing warmth,
receptiveness, curiosity and challenge. My role is to
support you in your own process, by listening, noticing,
asking questions and investigating with you, to help you
sense into where you are, make sense of what you find,
and try out new ways of seeing or being.
I work with adults (age 18 upwards) and I see clients
once a week, on an open-ended basis, with the option of
regular reviews. Sessions last 50 minutes. I mostly do
longer-term work (upwards of a year), but I am guided by
whatever the client brings – often what has been missing
for those of us who come to counselling is patient,
dedicated attention, without the pushing or rushing of
everyday life; at other times what is needed can be
arrived at more quickly, depending on how focused it is
possible to be in the work.
I began practising in 2019 and hold a British
Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy
(BACP)-accredited foundation certificate (2015) and
postgraduate diploma (2021) in integrative counselling
from the Minster Centre in London, UK, one of Europe’s
leading integrative counselling and psychotherapy
training institutes. I also have a PhD and Master’s
degree in Social Policy, and a Bachelor’s degree in
Modern European Languages. I am a registered member of
the BACP, and have full professional indemnity
insurance.
