Gillian graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work in 2012, after which she went to work in a number of different services ranging from community social work and development, adoption services and children’s residential care. She has worked in Kenya, India and with different cultural communities in Malta, after which she went on to graduate with a Master’s in Counseling so as to support people therapeutically.
Gillian takes special consideration in providing the necessary safety for clients, where together they can work to understand themselves and their relationships better as she supports them in their recovery from any hardships or traumatic experiences. She is passionate about helping people to process their emotions, recognise their strengths and reach their potential for a more content and fulfilling life. She believes everyone can benefit from a therapeutic space to work on their personal growth, self-awareness, self-compassion and coping skills.
Gillian’s approach is warm, caring, empathic and respectful of the client’s pace and readiness.
She has experience working with overeating/obesity, gender-based violence, mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, trauma, learning difficulties and relationship difficulties. She particularly enjoys working with teens and adults on their self-esteem, self-growth and improved well-being. Personally, she enjoys expressing her thoughts and emotions through writing and dance.

3. Bundles which are purchased for Couples Therapy and Family Therapy can only be used by members of the couple or family with one therapist. If members of a couple or family decide to take up individual therapy with another therapist, the bundle will only apply to sessions with the therapist originally referred and cannot be also used for the individual sessions with another therapist. Exceptions will be made if the original therapist is unable to see the client or family and the couple or family are referred to another therapist. After referral, the same conditions will apply.
4. Bundles are valid for a limited time period, as listed above. This means that the bundles will expire once the respective time period has elapsed. Any sessions not utilised within this period will be lost. This means that a refund will not be given for unused sessions. Start date commences on date of purchase of bundles.
5. Bundles are only valid for full price sessions (charged at €60) and not for sessions with trainee psychotherapists, reports or assessments.
6. Full payment needs to be made on purchase, via bank transfer, cash or credit card.
7. Management reserves the right to terminate or suspend the use of the bundles. Reasons for such are at the discretion of the clinic.
8. Refunds or extensions of time period within which bundles may be used is at the discretion of management and will only be granted in exceptional circumstances.
9. Management reserves the right to modify or replace the terms and conditions. In such circumstances, clients will be given adequate notice and time to adhere to such.
10. The clinic’s cancellation policy is applicable also to bundles. Late cancellations or no shows will result in the forfeit of a session within the bundle allocation.
