I am a compassionate, solution-focused therapist. My goal is to create an encouraging, calm and relaxed atmosphere, and to work in respectful collaboration with the client. I will listen to you, I will understand you - and will never judge. I provide ongoing support and practical recommendations to help clients effectively address personal life challenges or cope with stressful situations. We are going to discover your inner strengths and build on them, gaining valuable insights and discovering ways to solve your problems.

I incorporate various counselling methodologies and approaches, such as Gestalt (including BodyMind Rubenfeld Synergy method), Narrative therapy, Cognitive-Behaviour therapy, and others. I also offer an effective Stress Management Program, based on the principles of deep diaphragmatic breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and mindfulness meditation. The program can be implemented individually and in group settings.

Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult
