As a psychologist, I pursue learning and knowledge so that I can become a better practitioner. At the same time, I believe that our personal lives play an important role in this profession — and I am someone who wants to enjoy everything life has to offer.
Outside of my psychology practice, I enjoy creating and exploring different forms of expression — writing, dancing, collaging, sculpting, embroidering... Art is an important dimension of my life, and listening to music, watching films, and reading books mean a lot to me.
Nature is also something I value deeply, and I try to integrate it as much as possible into my day-to-day life. I believe we cannot disconnect ourselves from the seasons and natural cycles. As part of this, I increasingly pay attention to the ways our bodies experience the world, as they are our gateway to sensory experience. I value caring for our bodies and learning to listen to them.
I try to approach life with curiosity, openness to experience, and acceptance of different points of view. Each of us is a unique constellation of experiences, memories, and biology, and the best we can do is to look at one another without judgment. I believe in the goodness of people, and that both caring for others and being cared for lie at the core of existence.
