Andrés G. Axthammer

I am a psychoanalyst in training, working with children, adolescents, and adults. Having lived in several countries both as a child and as an adult, I know first-hand how formative different cultural contexts and transitions can be. These experiences have given me a deep interest in identity, belonging, and the ways early and later relationships shape who we become. Before starting my clinical training, I studied and completed my studies in Film Direction. My background in film and my broader interest in art continue to influence how I listen and pay attention in therapy — to stories, to images, to atmosphere, and to what is often left unsaid, or cant focus. I believe that creativity and imagination are essential in finding new ways of understanding and relating. I see psychotherapy as a space where complexity is welcomed. Rather than trying to reduce people to symptoms, I aim to meet each person in their uniqueness and to provide a reliable, thoughtful space in which difficult feelings and experiences can gradually be worked through.
