Nelli Rubante

Trainee Transactional Analysis Psychotherapist, offering therapy in Liverpool and online

I provide a warm, gentle, and non-judgemental space where adults can explore life's challenges, reflect on their experiences, and begin to make sense of what feels difficult. My aim is to create an environment where you feel truly heard, understood, and supported.

My interest in psychology and human behaviour developed over time, sparked by my experiences living and working across different cultural contexts. I am bilingual and moved to the UK at the age of 19, an experience that has given me personal insight into how culture and language shape the way we see ourselves and relate to others. I became fascinated by the ways people grow, cope, and find meaning in their experiences.

My Journey into Psychotherapy

Before training in psychotherapy, I completed a BSc in Industrial Design and worked in a range of roles across design, service delivery, publishing, and engineering.

These experiences taught me to transition easily between different environments, understand social dynamics, and appreciate multiple perspectives — skills that now inform my work as a psychotherapist in training.

My formal journey in psychology began over a decade ago with a postgraduate certificate in psychology. Over the years, I continued exploring different approaches, which eventually led me to train in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy from an Integrative Perspective (Level 7 Diploma) at Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy.
