About me
About Me -- Your Partner in Healing and Growth I understand the emotional weight of anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions. As an English-speaking therapist in Europe, I provide trauma-informed, compassionate therapy designed to help expats heal, build resilience, and regain peace of mind. Whether you're navigating past trauma, emotional dysregulation, or adapting to a new culture, I’m here to guide you with personalized care. Since 2017, I’ve lived as an expat in several European countries, including France, England, Hungary, and the Netherlands. This personal experience has given me a deep understanding of the challenges expats face, from culture shock and isolation to the stress of adjusting to new environments. I know how tough it can be to find balance when life feels unsettled, and I am committed to supporting you through these transitions with compassion and practical guidance. In 2021, I faced the unexpected death of my partner. This life-changing experience reshaped my understanding of grief and trauma, deepening my ability to empathize with those navigating profound loss. The journey through my own grief and the emotional upheaval it caused informs how I support clients, helping them heal from loss, anxiety, and life’s hardest transitions. I hold a Master’s in Clinical and Health Psychology from ELTE University in Budapest and a Bachelor's in Psychology from Queen’s University in Canada. My additional training in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Megan Devine's Grief Care, and yoga therapy enhances my ability to offer holistic, compassionate care.

My Approach to Healing
I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed approach tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're managing anxiety, trauma, or emotional challenges, I use evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you make meaningful progress and lasting change.
Goal-Oriented & Personalized Therapy Every session is designed to address your goals—whether that means reprocessing trauma, learning emotional regulation, or gaining clarity in difficult emotions. My approach is structured yet flexible, ensuring you receive individualized support while steadily working toward healing and growth.
Mind-Body Healing Emotional healing doesn’t stop in the mind. I encourage clients to tend to their physical well-being, integrating simple yet impactful practices like:
Nutrition & Hydration Movement & Rest Sleep Hygiene Self-Compassion & Daily Care These practices support your nervous system and create a strong foundation for emotional healing.
LGBTQ+ Affirming & Inclusive Care I provide a safe, open, and non-judgmental space for individuals of all identities, backgrounds, and orientations, ensuring you feel seen, heard, and respected in every session.
