About me

During my Psychology MA studies I was experimenting with therapeutic movement and group dynamics in acute and chronic psychosis management. Positive psychology and what creates or diminishes resilience in development was a part of my theoretical work. After graduating, I've spent a few years as a school psychologist, learning to work with adolescents, parents, families, teachers, school directors and classrooms. In the supervision part of my Biosynthetic Psychotherapy training, I created my private practice and started to conduct online individual and group sessions during the Covid pandemic. Currently I'm a part time college counselor, where I work with individuals and groups in both a counseling and therapy context. Occasionally I teach at the Charles university and conduct group workshops on self-care, among other topics.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Body therapyRecommended for those who want to connect their mind and body to release stress or trauma through physical sensations and movement.
Holistic approachRecommended for those who want to address their mental health through a balanced focus on mind, body, and spirit.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
The therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone and requirement for therapy to work. I tend to follow the rhythm and pace of the client, seeking to develop a space of safety in the therapy space, where we can explore more difficult, even existential issues with the aim of promoting a closer connection to creativity and freedom. Biosynthetic psychotherapy is an integrative, body-psychotherapy approach, where we consider the psychosomatic connection. It is not necessary to work directly with the body, although I do give instruction on breathing or movement excercises where appropriate and helpful. Rather than seeking emotional discharge, I focus on the feeling of safety that produces integration. The fuller expression of the emotional charge then naturally becomes gradually available.
