About me
Let me start by saying that for me psychotherapeutic work is the most interesting and fulfilling work I have ever done — most days I leave my office with a smile, thinking, “Wow, I really love my job.” Each person’s story that enters the therapeutic process is a new puzzle we explore together with curiosity and creativity. Through this exploration, the client begins to truly understand themselves and, as a result, transforming their life.
My core values in the therapeutic process are openness, non-judgmental acceptance of the client, safety, genuine listening, creativity, and seeing the psychological process as both the play and a continuous story of self-discovery — one that evolves, deepens, and finds new resolutions with every session.
What supports me most in my therapeutic work is the time I spend myself in the realms of dreams, creativity, and art. The most precious aspect of the Jungian approach I practice is that it mirrors my own ongoing story of individuation — a continuous journey of meeting different inner figures through imagination and dreams. These encounters help me understand my own patterns and live a life that feels more meaningful, creative, and whole.
The path of psychotherapy found me like a sudden flash of insight — a clear knowing that this is what I am meant to do. It was love at first sight, and that love has stayed with me ever since.

Approach
In my work with clients, we begin by creating a safe and supportive space where it is allowed to feel, to express, and to simply be who they are. Through an accepting and attuned therapeutic relationship, clients can start to open up about experiences and feelings that may be difficult, confusing, or never before spoken aloud. Such material reveals new layers of the psyche and awakens fresh sources of energy that support personal transformation.
In therapy, we often work with therapeutic dialogue, projective cards, creative expression, active imagination, dream work, and the continuous use of symbols as guiding markers on the path of individuation.
My experience shows that during the first month, clients usually adjust to the new therapeutic relationship, explore safety, and begin to share their stories. By the second or third month, many start noticing the first changes in their lives — greater honesty with themselves and others, clearer boundaries, more inner clarity, and a deeper ability to connect external events with inner feelings. After six months, clients often recognize more profound transformations — a stronger sense of self, new insights, and meaningful steps forward on their individuation journey.
