I am a Senior Counselor at IE. With a keen interest in understanding how individuals connect with themselves, each other, and their environment, I am particularly focused on the social dynamics of interpersonal relationships, discrimination, and abuse. My objective is to contribute towards creating a more inclusive and diverse society that has room for people from all walks of life.

I possess over a decade of experience working in the field of domestic violence in London. My responsibilities included direct interaction with perpetrators, assessing risk, and preparing reports for social services, family courts, and the police. Additionally, I designed, managed, and facilitated behavioral change group programs for men who were abusive and violent towards women, collaborating and synchronizing safety plans with victim support services. Furthermore, I collaborated closely with the police, schools, mental health services, and social services to manage high-risk cases and provided training on understanding and mitigating risk by focusing on the perpetrators.

In addition to my extensive experience in the field of domestic violence, I possess expertise in wellbeing and personal development. I have worked as an Executive Coach and a Life Coach, helping individuals understand their roles in society and within organizations, identifying barriers they may face, and guiding them on how to overcome these barriers to perform optimally. I am currently working toward becoming a Clinical Neuropsychologist, exploring human behavior from a micro perspective.
