Želim vam donijeti nadu, izlječenje i životnu ravnotežu koristeći pristup usredotočen na klijenta i na individualne snage.

Taking the first step into therapy can feel hard—especially if you’ve been managing things on your own for a long time. I work with adults who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, or the lingering effects of difficult experiences.
My style is collaborative and practical. We’ll start by understanding what’s been going on for you, then use approaches that fit your goals. Ideally, by the end of therapy you are feeling more like yourself or you have moved towards being the person you want to be.

Do you keep having the same argument, in your head, or with the people closest to you? You reach for connection, then pull back before it gets too close. Small moments spiral into hours of overthinking. Or you feel distant and unreachable, even when someone is right there with you. You might feel anxious, overwhelmed, or alone, even when the people in your life care. These patterns often live inside you: overthinking, an ADHD brain, or old attachment wounds that keep showing up in how you connect. In our work together, we slow things down, make sense of what's underneath, and move at a pace that feels safe for you.

You’re functioning but you’re not okay. Stress is building, sleep is off, patience is thin, and you’re either on edge or completely shut down. You may be stuck in your head, avoiding conflict, or exploding when things pile up. Maybe your relationship is strained, trust has been broken, or you feel alone even when you’re not. You want to feel steady again, handle emotions without losing control, and stop repeating the same patterns. You don’t need a lecture. You need support that actually helps.

I work with men who lack a sense of direction or purpose in life and want to find it. In addition, if you want to overcome what’s holding you back and learn to manage stress more productively, I encourage you to reach out.

After studying clinical psychology in Europe, I worked for more than two decades in a city hospital. I primarily treated adults struggling with a range of issues, including anxiety and phobias, depression, trauma, obsessive-compulsive disorder, sexual dysfunctions, and relational issues.

In addition to my clinical experience, I've had the unique opportunity to offer psychotherapeutic services in war-affected regions, working closely with refugees and soldiers suffering from PTSD and war-related issues.

On the outside, you’re highly functional—excelling in your career and managing every responsibility. But internally, you are battling chronic burnout and a persistent sense of imposter syndrome, feeling like it’s only a matter of time before it all feels 'too much.'
You might also notice yourself repeating the same frustrating cycles in your romantic relationships—choosing partners who are emotionally unavailable or finding yourself in familiar, painful dynamics even when you logically 'know better.'
