About
To be 'human' is such a simple and yet such a deep and miraculous concept. Suffering is a natural part of human experience and emotional avoidance is one of the main causes of psychological problems. Avoiding negative emotions may bring you short term relief but in the long term it will end up with pain. When we accept a negative emotion, it tends to lose its destructive power. Therapy is a healing journey where the alliance between client and therapist plays an extremely important role in the process of acceptance.
I had experience working with clients suffering from addiction, borderline personality disorder, , mood disorders, trauma, grief, and PTSD. I primarily use DBT, CBT, and a psychodynamic therapy approach but I believe that each client's uniqueness drives an approach guided by curiosity, meaning-making, and individual strengths.
I create a therapeutic environment in which clients feel seen, heard, supported, and safe enough to find self-discovery. I allow my clients to build self-love and self-compassion by encouraging them to understand, accept, and empower themself in their therapeutic process.
