About me
Psychotherapy is my third major and it was a thoughtful decision, although it took me quite some time to get ripe and ready for this profession. My curiosity to explain unexplainable brought me to Vienna to study psychoanalysis at Sigmund Freud University. Currently besides working as a psychotherapist under supervision I also follow up with learning relational psychoanalysis and group analysis. Uniqueness of every psychotherapeutic relationship keeps me challenged at my work.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
I am trained in psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy. Both of them are talking cures, where a patient speaks the unspoken and while speaking the affects, fantasies and thoughts become real and have a possibility to decompress.
What are we going to do?
We will look back but move forward while reassessing your worldview and emotional baggage that you sometimes willingly and sometimes unwillingly collected through the years of experiencing interaction with people. We are going to discuss relationships, anxieties, fears, fantasies, impulses as well as other important issues, which should bring you to new insights, disillusionments, improve quality of life and quality of interpersonal relationships and decrease suffering.
Which one would fit you?
1) Psychodynamic psychotherapy is evidence-based short-term treatment, 1 or 2 times weekly. It is substantially based on psychoanalytical theory however the interpersonal relationship between client and therapist is also very important and is explored. Psychodynamic psychotherapy is focused on exploration of dynamic tensions (how inner forces (drives) respond to external demands, social influence, interpersonal relationships) and internal conflicts between 3 agents of psychic apparatus (id, ego, super-ego).
2) Psychoanalysis is in-depth, long-term treatment, usually at least twice a week. During analytic sessions therapist keeps distance in order to give space for the analysand’s unconscious fantasies, feelings and memories to come out. Beneficial for those who are curious to explore many WHYs and open the uncanny doors of their mind. Psychoanalysis gives a possibility to untangle how the unconscious impacts current behaviours, thinking processes, feelings and relationships. Main tools to be used: free association technique, dream analysis, transference/counter-transference analysis.
