Hi, my name is Roma from Derby and I enjoy baking and cooking for my family, as well as going for walks in the countryside. I am currently studying for my Masters in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy at the University of Derby after doing my BSc in Psychology at the same university. I have always had an interest in talking therapies from when I first studied Psychology at GCSE level and this has continued throughout my education. While studying for my Masters, I also work for a healthcare company that provides the NHS 111 service for the East Midlands area so I have experience in dealing with such health issues that can range from low urgency to emergency situations.
I use an integrative approach combining Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Attachment Theory. For more information, please see our Guide to Therapeutic Approaches.
I am currently working to complete my MSc in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy at the University of Derby I also hold a BSc in Psychology (Hons) from the University of Derby. My expertise is working with clients that suffer with anxiety and self-esteem issues, as well as depression and low mood. I have worked with clients who have had eating disorders and they have said that it helps for them to speak to me about the negative thoughts that they get regarding their body image.
I'm a student member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and bound by their code of ethics for standard practice in counselling. I also work closely with my clinical supervisor at all times.
