I offer a range of solutions designed to meet your needs—whether you're just getting started or scaling something bigger. Everything is tailored to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

This varies depending on what you're working on. Some clients find 6-12 sessions helpful for specific concerns, while others benefit from longer-term therapy for deeper patterns or complex trauma. We'll regularly review your progress together and adjust as needed every 6 sessions.

The therapeutic relationship is crucial to successful therapy. That's why I offer a free 20-minute video or phone consultation, so we can both get a sense of whether we'd work well together. Trust your instincts. If something doesn't feel right, that's okay, and I'm happy to suggest other therapists.

Yes! Research shows online therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions for most concerns. Many clients find it more convenient and accessible, allowing therapy to fit around work, childcare, or location constraints.

Integrative therapy means I draw from multiple evidence-based approaches rather than using just one method. This allows me to tailor therapy to your unique needs—what works for one person might not work for another, and your therapy should reflect that.

No. I work with a wide range of clients—from those seeking practical strategies and structure, to those exploring deep personal change. You don't need a diagnosis or a crisis to benefit from therapy.

Many clients feel stuck despite previous insight. My approach focuses on bridging the gap between understanding and meaningful change, tailored to your unique patterns and needs. Sometimes a different therapist or approach is what's needed to move forward.

Trauma isn't defined by a single type of event—it's how your nervous system has been affected by overwhelming experiences. This might include obvious incidents (accidents, violence, loss), but also prolonged stress, injustice, unsafe relationships, or systems that left you feeling unsupported or changed. Trauma doesn't need a label or diagnosis; if an experience has deeply affected you, that matters. Therapy can help your nervous system process what happened and integrate those experiences, restoring a sense of safety and continuity.

Many people seek therapy not because of a diagnosis, but because prolonged stress, loss, injustice, or unsafe systems have left them feeling disconnected or changed. Therapy can help make sense of these experiences and support integration, even when there is no clear label for what you're going through.

Therapy is a collaborative process. While some challenges can be addressed quickly, lasting change often involves integrating insight, emotions, and action. My goal is to help you develop tools and understanding that create real, sustainable change in your life.

If you're experiencing a mental health crisis and need immediate support, please contact emergency services (999), Samaritans (116 123), or your GP. Therapy is not a crisis service, but we can work together to develop safety plans and access appropriate support.

I offer sessions in Ukrainian, Russian, and English. If you speak another language, we can discuss whether therapy in English would work for you, or I can help you find a therapist who speaks your language.
