About me:
​My journey in psychotherapy began during my university days, where a dedicated trainer introduced me to experiential psychotherapy. This initial spark inspired me to pursue workshops and deeper learning, but I first dedicated myself to social work. Working in social care allowed me to grow professionally and understand different cultural perspectives.
Eventually, I transitioned fully to psychotherapy - a shift that felt truly meaningful.
My training included also at least four years of personal psychotherapy, helping me understand the importance of empathy and self-awareness in supporting others.
​
Today, as a qualified psychotherapist, I offer a warm and compassionate space for healing and self-discovery. My approach is humanistic and grounded in Integrative Transactional Analysis, meaning our work together is tailored to your needs, honouring your journey at a pace that feels right for you.
​
In addition to English, I also speak fluent Romanian.
Qualifications and Experience
I hold a Post Graduate Diploma in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy from an Integrative Perspective from the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy, a Level 7 Master’s-equivalent course. I also hold an International Degree in Social Work.
​
Since I began practicing in 2022, I’ve worked with clients facing challenges like stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, identity, belonging, and adapting to new cultures.
​
I believe in continuous learning and regularly take part in training to deepen my skills, covering areas like trauma-informed care and existential psychotherapy. I also work under professional supervision, which helps me provide safe, effective support for each client.
​
Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent over 10 years in social work. This background gave me a strong foundation in compassionate support, and transitioning to psychotherapy has allowed me to connect more closely with clients in ways that feel meaningful and fulfilling.
I am a member of BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy) and ITAA (The International Transactional Analysis Association).
