About me

I am a psychologist and coach specializing in the cognitive-behavioral approach, currently pursuing a 4-year advanced training program in CBT. My work is rooted in evidence-based methods, but also in empathy, respect and a genuine curiosity for every person’s inner world. I support adults experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, panic attacks, chronic tension, burnout, ADHD, OCD, Bipolar disorder, perfectionism, phobias and difficulties in both personal and professional relationships. In my therapeutic and coaching work, I focus on psychological safety, collaboration and real, sustainable change. I treat every client as an active partner in the process — someone who deserves to be heard, understood and guided with care. Together we explore patterns that shape your emotions, behavior and daily experiences, uncovering what supports you and what stands in your way. I help clients develop emotional awareness, regulate the nervous system, build healthier boundaries, strengthen resilience and create a more balanced, compassionate relationship with themselves. My approach is structured yet flexible, allowing us to work at your pace while keeping your long-term wellbeing and personal goals at the center. I believe that true change occurs when self-awareness is paired with steady, intentional action — and my role is to help you bring these two elements together in a way that feels supportive, empowering and safe. Before my psychological practice, I spent many years working in international corporate environments. This experience gave me deep insight into the emotional and professional challenges people face at work — high pressure, constant expectations, stress, low mood, reduced motivation, self-esteem difficulties, workaholism, clinical perfectionism and burnout. Understanding these dynamics from the inside allows me to support clients with authenticity, realism and genuine compassion for the complexity of modern professional life.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
CoachingRecommended for those who want support and motivation to achieve personal or professional goals, often with a structured, goal-oriented approach.
1. Psychological Support — 50 or 75 minutes sessions every 1–2 weeks In my therapeutic work, I help clients identify destructive thought patterns, emotional triggers and behavioural habits that contribute to distress or keep them stuck. Together, we examine these patterns with curiosity and compassion, gradually replacing them with healthier, more adaptive alternatives. I encourage active participation in the change process, helping clients recognize their strengths, build emotional awareness, and develop a more nurturing relationship with themselves and the world around them. Our sessions offer a safe, steady and supportive space where clients can slow down, reflect and explore their internal experiences without judgement. We work on building clarity, grounding and resilience, using evidence-based methods tailored to each person’s needs. I guide clients through insight-oriented and skill-building steps that support positive, sustainable transformation. The goal is not only to alleviate symptoms but also to restore balance, enhance wellbeing and foster long-term psychological growth. Crisis intervention is an integral part of this work when needed. In moments of emotional overwhelm or instability, I help clients understand their thoughts and feelings, assess risk, stabilize the situation and regain a sense of control. Together, we develop strategies to navigate the immediate crisis while also building a long-term plan for safety, resilience and healthier coping. ________________________________________ 2. Coaching — 90 minutes sessions every 3 weeks Life Coaching: Life Coaching is a collaborative, forward-focused process designed to support personal development and improve overall life satisfaction. During our meetings, we explore your values, needs, goals and inner motivations to help you understand what truly matters and how you want to shape your life. We work together to address obstacles, strengthen self-awareness and develop consistent habits that support your wellbeing and long-term aspirations. This process provides structure, clarity and motivation. We break large goals into manageable steps, identify limiting beliefs, and build strategies that align your actions with your deeper intentions.
