Briefly about me

I specialize in the areas of self-knowledge and personal growth, interpersonal, family relationships, emotional, somatic, anxiety, depression and other difficulties. I apply the principles of psychodynamic psychotherapy in my work.

Professional motto: “My job is to help clients discover their inner resources and ability to take care of themselves. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where they can openly explore their difficulties, gain a deeper understanding of themselves, and move towards personal growth, change, and better well-being.”
