About me
I'm a native English speaker and love working with people from all around the world.
Born in Prague, in the Czech Republic, I moved to Switzerland at age 4 and grew up in a very international community for 15 years. I then spent many years living in the UK and the Netherlands. As an expat through and through, I have always been very curious and open-minded, though it has not come without its challenges e.g. where are you from? where is home? ... :)
I take a holistic approach to understanding you, your life story and current problems. I believe that everything in life is connected, and that to truly understand you, I must take all aspects of your life into consideration. Not just your thoughts, emotions and behaviors, but also your lifestyle, health, identity, habits, relationships, home, culture and so on.
I am especially interested in the field of women's health. I chose to do my master's thesis on the topic of menstrual cycle phases and mood in women. I consider this area to be hugely under-researched, but hugely relevant. So if you struggle with premenstrual syndrome (PMS), premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), premenstrual exacerbation (PME) or anything related to hormonal health, I would love to help you.

My approach
I am calm, empathic and non-judgmental, and work in an organized and transparent way. Our mutual understanding and therapeutic relationship is of utmost importance to me, so I will nurture our bond and mutual understanding. I will also often ask for your feedback: what is working for you & what is not, so that we can keep fine tuning our focus on your goals and progress.
I am primarily trained in cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), which is a structured, shorter-term, and present-oriented therapy, in which you and I work collaboratively to achieve your goals.
Together we will set goals & frequently review your progress so that you can see & feel positive changes as soon as possible.
I will give you things to work on in between sessions and over time you will build a toolkit of skills and resources that you can use independent…my ultimate goal is to support you in living your ideal life.
Feel free to reach out to me for a free 15 min call. :)
At the moment I mostly only have daytime availability (9am - 4pm) on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
