Irena  Vukicevic-John
Counsellor in London

I am a level 4 qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with an extensive experience working with both adults and children. Having spent over 10 years working as a private tutor with a hollistic approach and an EFL teacher, I am happy to offer my services both in person and online.
My love for languages and other cultures has played a part in me being trilingual - fluent in English, Serbian and French. I am a mother of 3, a proud dog owner who loves travel and animals, but above all, I enjoy helping and guiding others towards achieving their goals and aspirations.

Background & Counselling Qualifications

I moved to London from Belgrade over 30 years ago, where I managed to obtain my GCSE, A Level and BA Hon in English and French qualifications. During my years of travel and living abroad (Paris and South of France) I became an EFL Teacher and quickly started to study what has been my passion since I can remember, psychology and counselling. I went on to qualify as a CBT therapist specialising in working with children, adolescents and adults and also achieved a level 4 qualification in Counseling and Psychology. I am on the enhanced DBS check and can work with both adults and children.
