I have always been fascinated by the inner world of a person – how the psyche works, what can disturb its balance, and what opportunities exist to support recovery or prevent difficulties. Cognitive-behavioral therapy has provided me with an evidence-based and supportive framework that helps to understand the functioning of the inner world and to guide changes consciously and purposefully. In my work with clients, I consider it central to create a safe and trusting collaborative relationship – it is precisely in such a relationship that it is possible to jointly reach the essence of problems and move towards solutions at a suitable pace. I believe that meaningful changes can be achieved through cooperation, and everyone has the ability to acquire new skills and approaches that help to enjoy life more.
All clients aged 18 and over are welcome to my practice.
