About me

I am a trained psychoanalytic psychotherapist in private practice with a Ph.D. in Psychology and an MA in Clinical Psychology. My practice adheres to the three foundational components established by the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA) which include personal analysis for the analyst, courses, and seminars providing theoretical knowledge and clinical skills, as well as clinical supervision.

Psychoanalysis, art, and literature are the essential pillars of both my professional and personal life. My research, publications, and translated works often explore the intersection of these fields. my Master's thesis, presents a psychoanalytic narrative of fairy tales, while my Ph.D. dissertation delves into the psychoanalytic dimensions of art and the creative process.
