In a fast-changing world, every person matters — and every step toward awareness counts. I work with people who want to respond to life, not just react to it. We focus on developing emotional resilience, psychological flexibility, and a broader, kinder perspective on life. I combine evidence-based tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with mindfulness and reflective practices. I believe that mental health support should be accessible, practical, and integrated into daily life — not something you turn to only in crisis.
