How can we bring more aliveness into our life, work and relationships?

— Therapy and depth coaching for the self-curious

Start with a conversation

Hi, I’m Alina.

I’m a certified psychotherapist and depth coach working at the intersection of relationships, work and identity.

I specialise in life transitions, complex trauma, relationships and sexuality, and existential questions of meaning and purpose. I work with thoughtful adults who understand themselves well but still find that insight alone hasn’t shifted their patterns.

Clients describe me as warm, authentic and connected, with the right dose of challenge. In our work, my intention is for you to feel genuinely met rather than reduced to a diagnosis, label or tidy theory — and supported to experiment with bolder, freer ways of living.

Finding a way through

Something brings you here. It may be a crisis; or the dawning realisation that the same patterns stubbornly repeat — in relationships, at work, with yourself. You don’t need to arrive with a neat explanation. We can begin with the mess of it.

Over time, this can make space for:

  • A restored sense of hope and energy to reach for what you want
  • Richer, more trusting and nourishing relationships
  • Work that has meaning and impact
  • More room for pleasure, play and spontaneity
  • Success that doesn’t cost your health, relationships or inner life

Therapy

An open space where we work with complexity, contradictions and patterns that have become entrenched over time.

Depth coaching

A focused space for a particular question or transition, often around work, meaning and purpose.

How we’ll work together

Whether we work together through therapy or depth coaching, short-term or open-ended, the work has an arc a beginning, a middle, and a point at which we review what has shifted.

What people say about working with me

  • Alina has the ability to create the conditions for deep awareness and meaningful change. Through our work, I gained clarity about parts of myself and patterns that had been influencing my choices for years without my fully understanding them. More than any other developmental work I've done, this helped me move beyond insight into action. I now feel like the person I want to show up as—something I'd wanted for a very long time.

    V.A.

  • Before working with Alina, my life felt very small. I think I was almost paralysed by fears from the past. Through deep work over time, I gradually started being braver, reaching out and adding more colour to my life. I'm really proud of that; and quite thrilled to find out what else I might be capable of.

    R.G.

  • I first went to Alina for executive coaching. It mattered that she understood the pressures of corporate life — I didn't have to explain that part. But I gradually realised the change I wanted needed to go much deeper. I had become disconnected from my feelings and needs, and was living almost entirely in my head. Through our work, I reconnected with myself, without losing my drive or sacrificing my performance.
