About Me
I welcome people from all walks of life, nationalities, socio-economic backgrounds, races, sexual identities and religious beliefs. I am very open minded, non-judgemental and compassionate.
My professional background before becoming a therapist was diplomacy and financial planning. I take interest in neuroscience and I enjoy researching imagination.
Quest cognitive hypnotherapy changed my life and helped me take steps to turn my existence into a more fulfilling and rewarding experience. It has been a very effective way to work through my own trauma, limiting beliefs and unhealthy relationship dynamics.
It has helped me to become more authentic with myself, my children and other people around me, which empowers me to make better choices and brings a lot more joy, true connection and meaning into my life.
I know first hand what a difference it makes to have resources and strength to keep a positive and inquisitive mindset when facing inevitable trials of human life.
I like to share my experience with each of my clients to help them towards reaching their full potential. You might be surprised how quickly many things can begin to change after you take those first few steps towards feeling better.
I would love to know more about you too, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

“When I initially came to see Dina I was looking for help with health and fitness goals. I was overeating and unable to stick to a fitness regime. Together we explored my motivations, values and aims as well as what, specifically, was happening in my mind in those moments when I was choosing to go against my own plans. Our work together, however, went much deeper than this. Dina guided me, with patience and care, to the root of the issue. This enabled me to address the problem and, in turn, my relationship with myself head on. Since seeing Dina my relationship to food has improved, I am exercising more and I have greater self compassion. I am so grateful for the work we have done together. I hadn’t appreciated how impactful cognitive hypnotherapy could be. I would highly recommend cognitive hypnotherapy and Dina to anyone who would like help making changes in their life.” Lucy P., age 36
