About me
I am a wife, a mother and a counselor. I have a BA in Psychology and I received training in relational psychoanalytic therapy, counseling and coaching. I offer individual counseling sessions.
Whether it's navigating a new career path, relocating for personal or professional reasons, having to build new personal connections, moving on after a separation, or adjusting to a new stage in life, like for example welcoming children, living with a chronic illness or retiring, change can feel daunting and often brings emotional turmoil. Having personally transitioned careers after 15 years in the communication industry and spent several years living outside my home country, I deeply understand the challenges, dilemmas, and emotional struggles that come with major career and life transitions.
Many of my clients face similar situations.
Together, we work on gaining clarity, breaking down barriers, and developing strategies to approach these transitions with confidence and a sense of purpose.

Approach
My style is interactive, collaborative, and supportive. I work together with my clients to create a space that feels safe and comfortable, allowing us to reflect openly on the changes they wish to make in their lives.
Often referred to as the "talking cure," my approach draws on my training in counseling techniques, relational psychoanalytic therapy and attachment theory principles. Whether through conversations, reflective exercises, or visual aids, each step of the process is meant to foster deeper understanding and self-awareness, allowing us to:
Create a safe space where you can express difficult emotions, particularly in the early stages of our work. By using association techniques, you’ll have the freedom to further explore certain thoughts and feelings as they arise naturally.
Reflect at times whether your personal history influences your current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Sometimes, understanding these connections can be key to overcoming the challenges you're currently facing, whether they're related to a transition or other situation.
Identify patterns from past relationships that may be impacting your present ones, especially those that are no longer helpful. Together, we’ll work on reshaping these dynamics to foster healthier, more supportive connections within your environment.
Understand how attachment styles formed in childhood could shape your current relationships. This awareness can help you bring more stability, security, and connection to your most important relationships.
It’s a collaborative journey where we work together to address and overcome the challenges you’re currently facing, helping you navigate both personal and cultural transitions.
