Are you feeling trapped in repetitive, unsatisfying patterns, weighed down by unease, discomfort or self-criticism? Are you longing for a change in how you relate to yourself and others, yearning for more fulfilling connections and inner peace? I am here to offer support and guidance as you navigate your journey toward healing and personal growth, helping you become more aligned with who you truly are. We work together as a team, building a supportive relationship in a safe, open-minded atmosphere. We look at how to unblock issues stuck for years and increase your participation and satisfaction in life.
As a gestalt therapist and a mindfulness practitioner, I offer a gentle and empathic approach to therapy; therapy interventions are tailored to your needs and are experiential, embodied and relational. They rest on warm human awareness and understanding encounters. My commitment is to move you beyond self-denial to an identity based on pride and affirmation.
As a trained clinical psychologist in Croatia and psychotherapist in Toronto, I've aided people in enduring various forms of suffering, including neurodivergence, gender diversity, and racialization, for over three decades. Providing clinical supervision to psychotherapy students, RP (Q)s and RPs has been a deeply fulfilling and humbling experience for me.
