My approach

Psychoanalysis, unlike other forms of therapies, is not a method of neutralisation (forcing the patient to accept and become what others consider as "normal", "healthy", or "positive"). These forces and believes, in the name of cure, oftentimes exhaust the patients and left them no room to speak for themselves.

My practice of psychoanalysis offer a space for you to speak with dignity.

Talking cure gives each person the opportunity to transform from a passive object of mental illness to an agent to sublimate our unique symptoms with dignity, to live with what we could not live without.
