About me

My approach is grounded in the present moment, while staying aware of how the past and your current context shape your patterns. Together, we’ll build awareness of your thoughts, emotions, and bodily signals so you can make clearer choices, shift unhelpful patterns, and reconnect with yourself. In our sessions, we may explore unconscious limiting beliefs or unrealistic self-concepts, while also paying attention to your body’s sensations, as they often provide valuable insights into your emotional and mental state. We’ll focus on what is within your control and your personal responsibility.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Gestalt therapyRecommended for those who want to focus on the present and take responsibility for their feelings and actions to promote personal growth.
Holistic approachRecommended for those who want to address their mental health through a balanced focus on mind, body, and spirit.
Person-centered approachRecommended for those looking for a supportive, non-judgmental space where they can lead the conversation and explore their feelings at their own pace.
I try to stay flexible and apply integrative approach depending on your unique needs and situation. In between sessions, I may encourage practices or individually crafted reflexions or excersisies such as journaling, meditation or reading. These are meant to support your progress and deepen the insights gained in our work together. I work with topics such as: - Self-confidence & Self development Supporting you in building a grounded, honest sense of self-worth - Relationships Exploring patterns and supporting deeper, more fulfilling connections with others - Anxiety & Panic attacks Helping you understand and regulate overwhelming fear and tension. - Stress & Burnout Helping you reconnect with your limits and restore inner balance - Life transitions Guiding you through life changes with clarity and emotional presence. - Grief & Loss Offering space to process, honor, and live with loss.
