I help Individuals and Couples reconnect, reflect and heal – both with themselves and within their relationships.
Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply seeking more clarity and connection, therapy with me offers a compassionate space to explore what is really going on beneath the surface. My approach is rooted in empathy, curiosity and collaboration.
Together, we will untangle the patterns that may be keeping you from feeling understood, valued and emotionally safe. You don’t need to have all the answers – just a willingness to begin.
Wherever you are on your journey, I’ll be alongside you as we explore things together.
About Me
Hi, I’m Ylenia, a Relationship Therapist dedicated to supporting individuals and couples in navigating life’s challenges, improving communication and building stronger, healthier relationships.
My Style & How I Work
Empathy, trust and confidentiality are at the heart of my work. Therapy with me is a judgment-free space, where you can explore your thoughts, emotions and relationship patterns with the guidance of a professional.
Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and find new ways to understand and care for yourself. In the therapy room, I create a balanced and non-judgmental space where you will feel heard.
Fluent in both English and Italian, I strive to make therapy inclusive, accessible and culturally sensitive. I also stay up to date with the latest therapeutic practices through CPD trainings and BACP conferences, ensuring I provide the most effective support possible.
My Story & What Drives Me
My journey into therapy began with a deep interest in human relationships – why we connect, how we disconnect and what helps us repair.
Originally from Lazio, Italy, I moved to the UK over 10 years ago to fully pursue this calling. I began my path with a degree in Psychosocial Studies & Psychodynamic Counselling and volunteered for years with Samaritans, where I offered emotional support to individuals in distress. This experience shaped my understanding of how powerful being truly heard can be.
What drives me most is, witnessing those moments of reconnection: when a client begins to see themselves with more compassion, or when a couple finds their way back to emotional closeness. Those shifts are powerful and deeply human.
Types of Therapy I Offer
I offer individual and couples therapy for adults.
Whether you’re seeking support as an individual or a couple, I offer a warm and non-judgmental space where we can explore what you are going through and work towards meaningful, lasting change – at your pace.
My Expertise & Focus Areas
I support people dealing with many different issues including:
- Anxiety
- Self-esteem issues
- Depression
- Life changes
I help couples:
- Improve communication
- Rebuild connection
- Navigate challenges such as conflict, intimacy issues, parenthood, infidelity
My Therapeutic Approach & Methods
My work is guided by an integrative approach, which means I combine different therapeutic models to best support each individual or couple I work with. I don’t believe in a “one-size-fits-all” method – each person is unique, so I adapt my approach based on your needs, goals and the issues you’re facing.
At the heart of my work is the belief that self-awareness and emotional connection are key to creating lasting change. I draw from:
- Psychodynamic Therapy: to explore how past experiences might be influencing your present
- Systemic Therapy: to understand how relationships and patterns affect your current situation
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): to help individuals and couples better understand their emotional needs and rebuild safe, secure connections

I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel truly heard and supported. I offer a warm and empathetic environment where clients can openly explore their emotions and experiences, allowing us to work together toward meaningful goals.
My background is in Social Psychology, and I went on to complete further training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I have over eight years of experience working with clients in both NHS and private practice settings. My therapeutic approach is relaxed and informal. Together we can help make changes that will hopefully have a long lasting impact long after therapy is completed.
My Approach
I use a blend of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and person-centred therapy. CBT is a practical, solution-focused approach that helps you understand how your thoughts affect your feelings and behaviours. In our sessions, we might use tools like thought records or journaling to help identify patterns and move towards more helpful ways of thinking and coping.
Alongside CBT, my person-centred approach ensures sessions are guided by you. I offer a non-judgemental, compassionate space where you feel safe to talk openly and be yourself. Building a trusting relationship is key to our work together.
What I Can Help With
I support clients with a range of issues, including:
Anxiety and low mood
Low self-esteem and confidence
Relationship challenges
Trauma
OCD
And more
If you feel I could be the right fit, I’d be honoured to work with you. Together, we can create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported—where real, lasting change can begin.
