About me
I was born in Tirana, the capital of Albania, where I attended a variety of international schools. I moved to Vienna, Austria in 2015 to further pursue an education in a similarly rich and diverse environment. Moving countries and integrating in a new culture comes with its challenges and I have learned to use my experience as a tool of empathy in my work, to connect with my clients and help them out of their own challenging situations.
Over the last 9 years in the psychotherapy field I have incorporated various approaches, from psychodynamic to more instructive forms of therapy that ensure my clients support and competent guidance in every step of their journey.

Treatment Approaches
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
International Psychotherapy & Brainspotting
I offer personalised, short-term and long-term therapy treatment options. I start with a 5-session basis, meaning I will guide you in a comprehensive manner throughout 5 weekly sessions, where you will gain significant insight about yourself and a new outlook in life. In the fifth session, we discuss how we are going to proceed if agreed upon by both parties.
The point of therapy is not to go back to the patterns that led us in the dark forest, instead to look at them, understand them, find out why we've been keeping them this way, and incorporate these findings in our life, not only to overcome the current difficulties, but also future ones, in order to enjoy a full and meaningful life.
