I am Gen, a fully qualified, registered Humanistic-Existential Counsellor.My own multi-cultural background and my lived experience of adaptation and loss in different countries helps me gain deeper insight into the ways that clients cope with transition, changes and loss. Throughout my life and different careers, I came to understanding that purpose and meaning of life continually change. Working as LSA (supporting children requiring extra support and care) at schools I understand the challenges the parents and teachers go through, not realising the "burn out". As a result of my own experiences, my passion is to help others to overcome challenging times, consider new perspectives, develop their full potential, discover a deeper sense of their purpose and meaning.You may lost a loved one and never be able to say goodbye due to lockdown. You may moved to a new country or find working overseas challenging when leaving behind your loved ones, places you used to visit.  Feeling confused, you want to make sense of what is going on for you, figure out what you really want in your life.I help people to find acceptance and a meaningful way forward. I am here to encourage you on your journey to overcome a stressful period by providing a safe space where you can gain clarity. Working together in therapy I guide my clients to explore the source of their issue and help them to find solutions to overcome their problems.​I practice a non –judgemental, respectful and empathetic approach as I believe this creates a safe environment in which we can work together to explore and examine any difficult feelings and problematic issues that may be causing you distress.I fluently speak Russian and English, and in my practice, I work with a diversity of clients, tailoring my approach to match each unique needs.
