Welcome, I'm Ilona. I am in the latter stages of accredited training in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy and work under regular supervision in line with UKCP standards. This ensures that my practice is ethical, supported, and consistently focused on providing you with safe, effective therapeutic care. I have also completed the Infant and Pregnancy Loss practitioner, Rainbow Baby and Infertility Specialist training.

Before starting my psychotherapy journey, I worked as a secondary school teacher and am now a full-time firefighter. I know first-hand the demands of high-pressure environments and the importance of finding space to reflect and reconnect with yourself. As someone diagnosed with Autism and ADHD as an adult, I bring a personal understanding of neurodiversity to my work. I love spending time in nature with my husband and son, training CrossFit, and engaging in meaningful, authentic connections with those around me.

I have recently started a family and have been embracing the transition into motherhood and all the learning and growth that comes with it. While this is an exciting chapter, it has also been extremely challenging in ways I didn’t anticipate. Change, even when deeply wanted, can bring unexpected difficulties, and I understand the importance of support during times of transition.
