My name is Vanessa Teixeira, and I am a dedicated Counsellor and Therapist with extensive experience in the field of counselling. I hold a degree in Counselling and a Master’s Degree in Psychodynamic Counselling, complemented by ongoing professional development in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and trauma-informed therapy, among various other modalities. 

​

My goal is to assist individuals in navigating their emotional and mental health journeys in a sustainable and effective manner. My counselling approach is person-centred, focusing on the client as a whole rather than merely addressing the issues presented in therapy sessions. As a mental health professional, I believe in the transformative power of empathy and active listening, which helps create a safe and supportive environment for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings meaningfully.

​

I am deeply committed to advocating for equality and diversity, ensuring that all individuals feel valued and understood. Through engaging workshops, training sessions, and both group and individual therapy, I strive to share my knowledge and empower others to embrace their unique experiences. My expertise encompasses a broad range of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, workplace stress, and burnout.

​

Outside of my professional pursuits, I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends, reading, writing, and taking walks in nature. These activities enrich my life and deepen my connection with clients. I invite you to reach out to discuss how I can support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
