I grew up in Switzerland and in my twenties set off on a spiritual search travelling extensively and eventually I settled in the UK in 1997. I have had several different jobs including teaching and working with at-risk teenagers, and I am a mother of three young adults. I believe we all have the potential to live purposeful, meaningful and happy lives, while navigating the inevitable difficulties life throws at us.
My core training is in Psychosynthesis, which is a holistic and integrative model. It sees the person as a whole: body, mind, feelings and spirit, and takes into consideration all human needs, from the basic psychological needs for security, love, acceptance, respect and recognition, to the needs for meaning, higher values and self-actualisation.
I trained at the Psychosynthesis Trust in London, and am a registered member of the BACP, working within its Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.
I work in Lewes and online with adults of all ages, supporting people experiencing trauma, depression, feelings of low self-esteem or a sense of being stuck. I work alongside my clients helping them understand deep- rooted patterns and move towards positive change.
I am also a trained mediator and bring the same calm, respectful approach to helping people in conflict find a way forward.
