About me and my practice
One day nine years ago I was filing up an application form for a job as a midday assistant for one of the local schools, I had to fill up the application by hand, not online or just by sending my CV. When the section came to write about my job experience, I realized that there was one job that I enjoyed in my paid professional life. Realisation occurred that I did not enjoy any of the jobs, my values did not match with the job role, and I was not happy.
Hence, I chose to be honest to myself and invested on myself.I started to study counselling and I worked on my skills since 2011, I have completed my studies Level 4 Diploma of Counselling (Person Centred + Existential approach) on 2017. From then on, I have been an Individual registered member of the BACP.
I started my private practice being inspired by fairytales, for that reason, the name of my company is "Ugly Duckling Counseling"
Experience
I specialize in Domestic Abuse Counselling, and Existentialism. I can speak 3 more languages apart from English; Spanish, Hindi, and Sindhi, which can make it easier for you if language is a barrier. The fact that I am Indian, brought up in Spain and lived in the UK for 27 years, gives me the extra skill of knowledge of these three cultures
I will offer you the same gift as I was given, when I was in the well of loss: non-judgement, empathy & confidentiality. I believe that therapy should be accessible, so I charge accordingly to the cost of living
The sessions are individually tailored, and the number of sessions are dependent to your healing process.
Qualifications
Level 4 Diploma Person Centred and Existentialism Approach
Cognitive Behavioural Theraphy
Diploma in Children's Counselling
Additional Information
I am constantly trying to educate myself, and the topics I choose are the ones I find interesting not just to tick boxes or it is fashionable.
I am completing the diploma of Carl Jung Archetypes and Menopause.
Furthermore, I do attend topics of CPD too. If I don't know something I am honest to let you know, and I will do my best to learn about a specific concept.
