About me

I am a psychoanalytic/psychodynamic psychotherapist holding a Master of Arts diploma in clinical psychology. Additionally, I have been continuing intensive trainings in Expressive Arts Therapy and Dance/Movement Therapy. I offer both online and in-person sessions for adults from a variety of backgrounds.

My approach

My theoretical orientation is mainly psychoanalytic/psychodynamic. From this perspective, our past experiences may still have an influence on our present, without our conscious awareness. I believe that healing is possible as we gain more insight into the unconscious parts of ourselves and our story, in the presence of an accepting other. In my practice, I aim at creating a non-judgmental and empathic space for you to express yourself freely and I will accompany you through the journey of self-exploration and creating a more fulfilling life. I believe that psychotherapy of any kind should be based on ethical principles and respect. Within this frame, I work with adults from variety of backgrounds and identities.
