About me

My way of working is shaped by a background in scientific research, which naturally brings a sense of structure and analytical depth to our sessions. I look for the patterns and logic beneath the surface, providing a grounded framework where we can safely explore the emotional layers that often feel chaotic or unaddressed. Complementing this, my own experience with immigration gives me a firsthand understanding of the complexities of identity and life transitions. I work extensively with expats and international professionals, supported by advanced training in intercultural therapy. I am familiar with the specific cognitive and emotional weight of navigating new environments and the process of finding where you belong. I often work with intellectually curious and highly self-demanding individuals—those whose minds are constantly evaluating and striving. While a sharp intellect is a vital tool, it can sometimes lead to a disconnect from your emotional life and physical presence. Our work focuses on restoring the balance between the analytical mind and the felt experience. I help you move toward a more integrated life where high internal standards coexist with self-compassion, and your drive for achievement harmonizes with the capacity for genuine vitality and enjoyment.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Integrative therapy Recommended for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
I approach therapy with a balance of emotional warmth and thoughtful exploration. Humor often finds its place in our work, helping to ease tension and create a sense of connection without minimizing the seriousness of your experiences. I value authenticity and encourage freedom of expression, respecting the individuality of each person. My work also emphasizes the connection between body and mind, exploring how physical awareness can deepen understanding and support change. The goal is to create a grounded and open space where we can collaboratively make sense of your experiences and uncover meaningful ways forward.
