You have taken your first step towards healing!!
If you are reading this, the chances are that there may be something in your life which is troubling you. It’s not always easy to ‘go it’ alone. Talking things over with a trained and experienced practitioner can be of much needed support to anyone who is struggling with everything that life can throw at us.
What can I do for you?
I see clients in individual, one-to-one sessions, and I also offer ‘Couples Therapy’ to clients who are experiencing conflict or instability in their relationship with their partner. My aim is to improve your well-being and mental health, to resolve or mitigate troublesome feelings, thoughts, emotions, beliefs and behaviours, and to help you to communicate in a more fulfilling and productive way. Buried deep within each one of us is the answer to life’s challenges, and my online therapy room offers you a safe space to explore your innermost self and to draw on your own personal internal resources, in complete confidentiality. You may be suffering from stress, anxiety, depression, or self-doubt, to name but a few of the more common issues, or there could be elements in your environment that may be triggering anger in you, e.g. in your work life, with your spouse, in your social life or at home. You may be feeling distraught or overwhelmed, going through one of life’s many challenging transitions, such as marriage, widowhood, menopause, separation, ageing, etc. Whatever your issue, my task is to be there for you, with you, to listen and support you throughout your journey of self-discovery.
My CV in a nutshell:
I was born and raised in Benghazi, Libya, and I have lived in many different countries since then. I am fluent in English, Maltese and Italian, and I have a working knowledge of Spanish and Arabic, plus a smattering of French. My travels and my varied life experiences have provided me with insights into cultural diversity and multiple perspectives. My earlier profession as an educator is multi-faceted, and I have lectured in countries as far away as the Sultanate of Oman. I have now permanently settled in Malta, where I run my online psychotherapy practice. My first degree and first MA were attained in UK, at the University of Reading, Berkshire. I hold an M.A. in Gestalt Psychotherapy, which was awarded by the European Accredited Gestalt Psychotherapy Training Institute, Malta (GPTIM). I am a Certified Couples Therapist (NCIP, UK). I am warranted to practice as a Clinical Supervisor (IFTS Malta), and I am a UK accredited Certified Online Counsellor. I hold the European Certificate of Psychotherapy, (ECP), Reg 409122, and I am a member of the Standards Committee of the Malta Association of Psychotherapy, (MAP).* At time of writing, my clients’ ages range from 20 – 93 years!
