About Me:

My name is Valentina.

​

Based in London, I offer sessions in English and German. I’m originally from Vienna and left Austria at 25. Since then, I’ve spent over a decade living abroad, moving countries, meeting people from many walks of life, and collecting a mix of experiences that continue to shape how I work and live.

​

A Personal Path:

This work comes from a long personal journey through traditional therapy modalities, plant medicine, somatic and spiritual practices, each bringing valuable insight. The path hasn’t always been straightforward; not every space felt like home.

I value both spiritual depth and rational clarity, meeting life as it is.

​​

Living Fully:

Years ago, I read an online discussion about what it means to live deeply. One comment stayed with me: living fully means feeling deeply, highs and lows, taking what is with openness and honesty. We don’t have to go everywhere or do everything to have a meaningful life. ​

​

To not escape the ordinary, but to meet it with presence, honesty, and joy.

​​​

The Work:

Systemic work (or family constellation work) is central to my journey. It offers a wider view, beyond the individual, into the systems we belong to. Often, what feels stuck can begin to move when seen from this perspective.

​​

While constellation work is often practised in groups, I currently offer one-on-one sessions. The same systemic principles are applied, but instead of using representatives, we explore the dynamics through dialogue, careful listening, and reflection. This creates a space where the patterns, roles, and connections within your system can come into view and begin to shift.

​

For a fuller picture of this approach, see my About Systemic Work and 1-on-1 Counselling pages.

How I Work:​​

Grounded, respectful, and meeting you where you are. Openly and without judgment.

​

I approach this work with care and honesty, no pressure, no performance. Just a steady space to notice what’s present and let something shift. The process is conversational, listening for the language and patterns that reveal what lies beneath the surface. 

​

At times, I may also bring in gentle somatic tools such as meditation or breathwork, inspired by Osho’s way of using the body as a doorway into awareness and integration. These practices can help insights from dialogue settle more deeply, so that change is not only understood but also felt.

​

Systemic counselling can be deep work, but it often makes life feel lighter, freer, and more your own.
