SCIENCE • COMPASSION • AUTHENTICITY
Ludo uses an evidence-based approach to work with people while embracing their uniqueness and creating change through a strong therapeutic relationship. Even science tells us that the relationship is the most important aspect of therapy.
​
Ludo feels blessed to be able to practice this way, as that is what really makes her feel truly fulfilled. Warm, curious, and compassionate, Ludo's personality is reflected in the way she works with her clients too. Her approach is tailored to your needs and highly person-centred.


MY
THERAPY APPROACH
Ludo's approach is centred around two evidence-based therapies, Schema Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which have been shown to be highly effective in helping individuals overcome a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges. However, every person is unique and so are our needs. Ludo will work closely with you to understand your specific concerns and create a personalised plan that works best for you.
​
Hobbies: everything whales and dolphins, singing (her car is her stage), dog training - especially with her so-very-deeply-beloved puppy Aida. Ludo also has a (self-declared healthy) addiction to learning all things therapy.
