Dr Nushka Marinova
Clinical Psychologist
“My clients find that therapy with me helps them to understand themselves better, break free from old patterns, feel more at ease, and live life more aligned with their values. Perhaps something needs to shift, or you're curious about therapy. It's not easy, but looking for support is already a major first step. Whether you're finding things difficult or want more clarity, we'll work out together what makes a difference. No one-size-fits-all, but a space to explore at your pace. Please feel free to get in touch when you're ready.”
