I’m a seasoned psychotherapist, skillfully weaving together elements from both the dynamic realm of psychodynamics and the practical toolkit of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My professional journey has traversed continents, having served the field of counseling and psychotherapy in Europe, New York, and beyond, ever since I earned my psychology degree.
Over the years, my expertise has been harnessed by a diverse spectrum of organizations and clients. My focal areas of specialization encompass a wide array of challenges, including navigating the complexities of career and work-related dilemmas, alleviating the burden of anxiety, addressing the unique strain of fertility-related fatigue, untangling the intricate threads of relationship and family issues, fostering healing and growth in couples, and offering support to survivors of abuse, as well as those grappling with the intricate web of trauma, resilience, and post-traumatic stress.
My academic journey mirrors my diverse professional background, with degrees not only in psychology but also in the realms of business and human resources management. This multidimensional expertise equips me with a holistic perspective to guide you on your unique path toward personal growth and emotional well-being.
I am dedicated to creating a secure, confidential haven where you can delve into your concerns and uncover solutions in a nurturing environment. Our unwavering focus will always be on the future: how you envision yourself, and how you aspire to feel, not just in the coming week, but in the months and years ahead.
My role as a therapist is not just a profession; it’s a profound passion. While therapy can be a demanding journey, for both therapist and client, I embrace the challenges wholeheartedly. Having personally experienced the transformative power of therapy, I understand the remarkable impact it can have on our lives, both in the present and the future.
Nobody should endure unhappiness or fear. Witnessing my clients initiate positive and enduring transformations in their lives, confidently striding toward their desired destinations, is a source of boundless satisfaction for me. Your journey towards a brighter future begins here.
