Individual sessions are tailored according to your needs. We're all different and I believe in curating my sessions with you that serve you best, to make you comfortable and to create a safe space without judgements. As a therapist, I aim to create an inclusive space for queer people, disabled people and people from minority communities.

There will be a free 30-minute discovery call to introduce ourseleves and understand if you concerns and needs align with my expertise.
The first session is free. This session aims to see if we could work well together (pricing will also be discussed in these sessions).
ABOUT ME
As a person seeking therapy, you deserve to know more about me.
As a therapist, I understand there is more to a person than simple terms. The human experience is nuanced. At apricity, the aim is to understand the different aspects of the familial, social, economic, political and biological systems that make a person and to delve into them to help you achieve your goals and help you heal.
Full transparency: Things will get uncomfortable before they get better. Unfortunately, the discomfort is important to explore to progress.
On a lighter and ethically personal note, I like dancing, writing, reading mythology, philosophy and linguistic as well as random facts and have a slightly concerning love for cats (I still do love dogs dearly).
I like reading and watching rom-coms, feel-good stuff, murder mysteries and thrillers. I used to love Marvel, but I fell off after Hawkeye, we all know why. DC? Never tried, but now I'm over sci-fi to try it out. That's all you get to know about me, unfortunately, maybe there will be a bit more self-disclosure in our sessions, we shall see. See what I did there? Create mystery (maybe).
