Approach

Treatment Approaches
Clinical psychologyRecommended for those who need help with diagnosing and treating more complex mental health issues, often involving assessments and evidence-based treatments.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.

I start the therapy process with few assessment sessions and then a feedback session with parents where I explain my views of the possible reasons for their referral. I mostly work with emotional problems and symptoms that children have. In therapy sessions I use psychodynamic play therapy to help children explore their emotions and gain self-agency. I keep the parents in the process and work with them too by having parent sessions around once in a month (this period can be longer or shorter depending on the needs of the child and the parents).

With adolescents I start the process individually with them and include parents as much as adolescent feels comfortable to.

As a counselling psychologist, I don't hide behind clinical jargon or neutrality; instead, I meet clients as human beings who don’t need fixing, but space to feel, question, unravel, and rebuild.

I work with people who want to understand and develop a better relationship with themselves, and with others around them. I believe change is possible, if we ask for help and do the work. And if we are kind to ourselves.
