About me

I came to counselling not just as a profession, but as a calling. After years working in design and fashion, I made a deliberate shift in my late thirties — drawn by a deep curiosity about the human inner world and a desire to support others in navigating it.

I am of both Greek and English origin, and have lived my life moving between two languages, two cultures and two ways of being in the world. It is an experience I know intimately — the sense of belonging fully to both and neither, and of finding the deepest ease with those who share that same in-between place.

Living between cultures has given me a particular kind of lens — one that is perhaps more comfortable with complexity, more naturally curious about difference, and more attuned to the many ways a person can experience the world. It has taught me that there is rarely just one way of seeing, one way of belonging, or one way of being. That understanding runs quietly through everything I do.

My core training is in Person-Centred Counselling, with a Postgraduate Diploma from the University of Strathclyde. Over the years I have expanded my practice to include Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS) Level 2, Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT), the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM), and Parent Effectiveness Training (PET).

With over 14 years of experience working with individuals (18+) and groups, I tailor my approach to what each person needs — integrating different therapeutic modalities as appropriate, in service of personal growth, trauma recovery and empowerment.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent years in the world of design and fashion. Rather than leaving that behind, I brought it with me. I deeply believe that creativity — through writing, drawing, role-play, or other artistic means — serves as a gateway to parts of ourselves that are not easily accessible through words alone.

In 2018, together with writer and counsellor Kostas Mavrakakis, I co-created a Creative Writing and Self-Knowledge seminar, nurturing the creative process within a therapeutic setting. Through a series of tailored exercises, we explored how creative expression can become a powerful tool for self-exploration and self-knowledge. The response was so strong that the seminar organically grew into a four-level programme.

I have also facilitated support groups for adults with ADHD, using creative exercises to build communication skills and a greater sense of empowerment.

Most recently, my work has continued to grow in new and exciting directions. I have been facilitating IFS Group Workshops, bringing the transformative power of Internal Family Systems into a collective setting. Alongside this, I have had the privilege of facilitating IFS Group Sharing circles on retreats, holding space for deep, communal inner work in immersive settings.

I am also the founder of Delphys — A Healing Circle for the Feminine Experience, a space dedicated to honouring the feminine journey and cultivating a sense of community and solidarity through the deep exploration of each woman’s unique “tapestry”. Here, I am able to bring together my therapeutic work, creativity and spiritual perspective in a way that feels wholly integrated. Looking ahead, my vision is to expand Delphys into a retreat experience — a dedicated space for deeper immersion, connection and renewal.

For over 26 years, my personal spiritual journey has shaped the way I move through life and work. When I discovered the Internal Family Systems model, something resonated deeply — here was an approach that placed the Self at the very centre, recognising it as healer, guide and Leader within our inner world. It connected with everything I had come to believe.

My intention is to continue deepening my IFS practice by pursuing Level 3 training when the opportunity arises — a process that, due to exceptionally high demand, involves a competitive selection process.
