Lianne is a dedicated Mental Health Practitioner. She holds her graduate membership with the British Psychological Society (MBPsS) and is currently in the process of obtaining her UAE license. 

Building upon her educational background, Lianne pursued further training focused on the safeguarding of vulnerable populations and working with survivors of sexual and domestic violence. 

Lianne began her career in mental health by working with survivors of sexual and domestic violence. During this impactful period, Lianne focused on predominantly supporting vulnerable young women aged 18 to 25, remaining mindful and inclusive of intersectional identities in her therapeutic approach.

In addition to her counseling work, Lianne has a rich history of hosting workshops focused on women's mental health and empowerment. These workshops serve as a dynamic platform for individuals to delve into themes of self-discovery, resilience, and reclaiming personal agency. Through group discussions and creative expression, participants are invited to explore their identities, experiences, and strengths in a supportive and nurturing environment.

Lianne has extensive experience providing individual counseling to adults and adolescents facing a wide range of challenges, such as depression, anxiety, self-harm, relationship difficulties, and trauma.

Guided by Person-Centered and Trauma-Informed modalities, Lianne has honed her skills in creating a safe and deeply non-judgmental space for her clients. In her practice, she prioritizes cultivating trust and mutual respect, understanding that healing flourishes in an environment where individuals feel seen and heard. This commitment to safety extends to her Mindfulness-Based interventions, where she guides clients towards self-compassion and inner peace. 

Lianne's philosophy emphasizes the importance of client autonomy and empowerment. She firmly believes that clients are the experts of their own lives and encourages them to take an active role in shaping their therapeutic process. Whether through exploring mindfulness techniques, engaging in dialogue, or incorporating psychoeducation, Lianne supports individuals in developing the tools they need to navigate life's challenges with resilience.
