About me
I specialize in utilizing Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Schema Therapy in my practice, tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each client. Creating an open and safe atmosphere, free from judgment, is of utmost importance to me. I firmly believe that individuals are the experts of their own stories, possessing remarkable strengths that can be harnessed to overcome challenges. My goal is to provide you with the support needed to gain self-awareness and make desired changes in your life.
Over the course of 5 years, I have worked with diverse clients in various settings, including a Special Education Center, the United Nations Migration Association, and my own private clinic. By applying CBT and Schema Therapy principles, I have helped individuals achieve positive outcomes. Additionally, for the past 2 years, I have actively contributed to a mobile phone application project focused on the Relationship and Communication Support Program. This experience has allowed me to blend research findings with practical expertise, offering effective and personalized treatment to my clients.
I am genuinely excited to embark on this journey of self-discovery with you. Your inner, world and empower you to implement the changes you desire.

Approach
As a therapist, my approach is characterized by creating a warm and empathetic therapeutic alliance with my clients. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change. By actively listening and demonstrating genuine empathy, I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can openly explore their thoughts, emotions, and concerns. I prioritize understanding each client's unique background, experiences, and goals, tailoring the therapy process to their individual needs. Drawing on evidence-based interventions and my theoretical training, I work collaboratively with clients to develop personalized treatment plans that encompass their desired outcomes. Throughout the therapeutic journey, I provide supportive feedback, psychoeducation, and guidance to foster self-awareness, insight, and the development of effective coping strategies. With a goal-oriented approach, I continuously review progress and adjust strategies as needed, all while upholding the highest ethical standards and promoting a culturally sensitive and inclusive therapeutic enviroment.
