When the same conflicts keep repeating themselves, important conversations become increasingly difficult, or a decision simply won't let go, a non-judgmental space can help you see things from a different perspective.

About me

I am a trained psychological counsellor and coach with a focus on mindfulness and Nonviolent Communication.

Nonviolent Communication has had a profound impact on my own life. Through this approach, I have learned to better understand myself and others and to navigate conflicts with greater calm and understanding. What touched me most was the realization that honest communication does not have to be hurtful, and that we can learn to express ourselves authentically while remaining empathetic.

This experience sparked a desire to support others in better understanding themselves and those around them, and in finding new ways to navigate challenges and conflicts.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
CoachingRecommended for those who want support and motivation to achieve personal or professional goals, often with a structured, goal-oriented approach.
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
Nonviolent communicationRecommended for those who want to improve communication and to regulate conflicts by learning how to express their feelings and needs and listening to other’s.

My work combines psychological counselling, coaching, mindfulness, and elements of Nonviolent Communication.

Together, we take the time to better understand difficult situations, conflicts, or recurring thoughts. Often, change begins when we slow down and approach ourselves and others with greater understanding.

My sessions are shaped by openness, empathy, and mutual respect. I aim to create a non-judgmental space where you can simply be yourself and where whatever is present in the moment is welcome.

Experience

Since 2023, I have been working as a self-employed psychological counsellor and coach. I support people through personal and professional challenges, conflicts, and life transitions.

Creating an empathetic, non-judgmental space where people feel seen, heard, and respected is at the heart of my work.
