I I graduated from clinical psychology at the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade. Also, I completed a master's degree at the same faculty. I acquired the knowledge and skills of psychological testing within a one-year internship at the Institute for Mental Health, a psychiatric institution (where I mostly tested children and adolescents). I am currently engaged within the Center for Psychotherapy Dr Visic, where I work as a psychotherapist in education with adolescents and young adults. I am in education from two psychotherapeutic directions: Transactional analysis and Integrative child psychotherapy.
TA believes that our childhood experiences, particularly from birth to five years, strongly effects our behaviors and our responses in social interactions, so importance is placed on our upbringing and how we were parented.This process is also referred to as script analysis, which analyses and explores our scripts developed in childhood. Scripts are unconsciously built beliefs and views we have of ourselves, others and the world, which we developed to make sense of our internal and external environments, from early experiences and interactions.During script analysis any positive or negative reinforcements we were given as a child to behave or not behave in a certain way will be explored, along with life messages we given I.e. ‘only lucky people become rich’, or ‘you have to suffer to succeed’. The Integrative Child Psychotherapy program includes and incorporates theoretical and practical postulates of various psychotherapy schools based on four theories and therapeutic traditions: humanistic orientation (client-oriented psychotherapy by Carl Rogers), expressive-action (sand-tray play therapy, child psychodrama), cognitive - and psychodynamic (intersubjective approach, object relations, self psychology, theories of attachment and mentalization) perspectives, integrating them into a unified approach to man as a basis for understanding psychic development. Affirming the importance of a unified approach to man, he represents an important position in psychotherapeutic practice that when considering the background of any moment of a child's functioning or the cause of conflict, in addition to the psychodynamic background, it is important to recognize the interdependence of thoughts, feelings and behavior in interpersonal and social space.
