About me
During my undergraduate studies in Psychology, I received training in various therapeutic approaches, including CBT, ACT, MBCT, and Narrative Therapy, which allowed me to strengthen both my theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Throughout my education, I conducted client sessions, administered psychological assessments, and carried out case analyses—experiences that significantly enhanced my clinical competencies. I completed my Cognitive Behavioral Psychology training, and obtained my certification. Currently, I am continuing my education in Psychodynamic Therapy. For the past two years, I’ve worked as a psychoeducator focused on emotional intelligence while providing individual therapy for adults from diverse cultural backgrounds.

Approach
In sessions, I aim to create a calm, empathetic, and safe space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. I believe that genuine understanding and change occur when people feel heard and accepted as they are. Therapy, in my view, is not about fixing someone but helping them reconnect with their own capacity for awareness, self-compassion, and growth. I am working with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy approaches.
From CBT, I integrate practical tools for identifying unhelpful thought patterns, regulating emotions, and developing psychological flexibility. From mindfulness-based approaches, I use exercises that help clients stay present, observe their inner experiences, and respond rather than react to challenges. Narrative techniques support clients in reframing their stories shifting from self-criticism toward self-understanding and empowerment.
My ongoing education in Psychodynamic Therapy allows me to bring deeper exploration into the process—helping clients uncover how past experiences, early relationships, and unconscious beliefs may be influencing their current struggles. Together, we work to bring these patterns to light, fostering new ways of relating to oneself and others.
