 Hi, I'm Agnes, a Wellness & Relationships Psychotherapist, Holistic Practitioner and former Psychologist. My journey began with a strong foundation in evidence-based practices within traditional psychology. Over time, I recognised the value of a more holistic approach, which led me to train in energy-based and mindful practices that support holistic well-being and personal growth, integrating both physical and emotional wellness. This broader perspective allows me to help foster a deeper connection between mind and body, offering clients a more integrative path to wellness. 

 I am dedicated to making self-care and wellness a fundamental part of everyday life.  With a solid foundation in psychology, fitness certifications, holistic practices, and over two decades of combined experience in counselling and wellness coaching, I am deeply committed to supporting individuals, couples, and families. I specialise in helping you navigate the pressures of modern life with compassionate and tailored support. 

PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy centres on nurturing health, well-being, mindfulness, resilience, and a positive mindset. By helping clients manage stress and overwhelm, enhance self-care, and improve overall wellness, my approach fosters deeper connections and understanding. This includes building stronger relationships with yourself and others, improving relationship dynamics for couples, and supporting families in strengthening their bonds.

PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
