About me
I am trained Jungian Analyst from Slovenia, who lived abroad for many years. I provide Jungian analysis, psychotherapy and counselling. I have many years of professional and volunteering working experience with ‘talking cure’, sound knowledge of holistic perspective of the world and various traditional and modern methods of healing.
I love to work with people and help them expand their perspective. I have run a small business in communications in Netherlands and then in Slovenia, before I thoroughly dedicated to psychological work and humanistic methods.

Approach
Here I describe my mission and service in the first part and the logistics of 'how I work' in the second part.
How I work - my mission and service:
I help people find the boundary between what they need to change and what they need to accept - and then help them do just that. I love to support people on their path towards empowering themselves with loving but relentless honesty. I believe that making things conscious is a big step, but after that we need to embody what we want to become.
Balance is needed - I belive in power of both: process and psychoeducation. Theory is not enough, but furious activity is no substitute for understanding.
I am Slovenian-born but I understand most of the different European cultures as I have lived in Europe for 15 years (Dutch, British, Slavic, German and other specific cultures).
How I work - the logistics:
If we are meeting for counselling, the time-table can be flexible. However - for palpable results of psychoanalysis and long-term therapy the fixed setting is needed. Discipline helps us for the unconscious patterns to be recognised and addressed.
In this case I start with up to four introductory sessions. The purpose of this is for me to see if I can help you and for you to become familiar with my way of working. Shortly: for us to see if we are compatible. After these intro-sessions I expect -and offer- commitment and regularity which will be in details discussed at the beginning, therefore nothing stays unclear.
Both counselling and therapeutic sessions last 45-50 minutes. I have a cancellation policy and payment policy which will be discussed in the introductory sessions.
