“An experienced Accredited CBT and EMDR Therapist. I have been studying and working in Psychology for 20+ years supporting clients to meet their individual needs and desired outcomes of living their best life. Reduction of anxiety, panic, trauma, depressive symptoms and increase in contentment, calm, & self-compassion .”

About Me

With over 20 years in psychology, I partner with clients navigating anxiety, panic, and trauma. Drawing on accredited CBT and EMDR, we work to reduce depressive symptoms effectively. My approach helps you build practical strategies for increased contentment and self-compassion. I aim to support your unique journey towards living your best life, fostering calm and well-being.

Approach

Therapy here moves in practical, steady steps that tune to your pace and priorities, aiming to loosen anxiety, panic and traumatic memories so calmer days become possible. In Paphos or online in English, sessions are focused and collaborative — a mix of short, skill-based tasks and paced processing tailored to what you can manage. Between meetings you'll try simple experiments and reflections to build confidence and notice change. This way of working often suits adults who want clear, achievable progress alongside growing self-compassion.
