About Me

IntroducinG

Hello and welcome,

My life experience had taken me through several fields of psychological work and various scientific approaches to mental health. From computer science and psychological support in aviation to academic approaches in psychology and psychotherapy within universities and institutes. All these parts of my life thought me a small part of what it means to be a human today helping people in their psychological and emotional struggles and successes.  

Life can sometimes be hard, there are ups and downs, tears and laughter, joy and sorrow, insights and ignorance. I met some great people and friends along my life, traveled all around the world and visited over 100 countries which showed me how different cultures live and strive. These had thought me about the universality of human suffering and pain but also about their striving, growing, prospering and happiness. All these experiences took me to the place where I am today, a psychologist with a private practice. I am so grateful I came to know one of the best psychotherapy methods and I want to share this knowledge to help people with various emotional and psychological problems. 

Every person has an innate healthy part of themselves which wants to thrive, grow be content and happy. However, this might be clouded by the anxiety and psychological defenses which make us suffer when facing yourself. Often it is hard to see how they directly cause us to hurt, abandon, criticize or ignore ourselves or others. Seeing these unconscious self-sabotaging mechanisms and turning against them brings kindness, unconditional positive regard, and empathy to ourselves and others. We will work together to help you bring to conscious what was unconscious before. This journey will open up your abilities for self-reflection, emotional processing and will make you get to know yourself on a deeper level of your being in order to be a master of your inner world, be more integrated person and accept yourself, others and the world fully.
