Let's get to know each other!

As a therapist, I invite you to explore your inner world—a journey that may have its challenges but holds the promise of meaningful growth and transformation. Together, we’ll confront what’s within, uncovering truths and tapping into your potential. My approach goes beyond addressing symptoms; it engages you in self-discovery and personal development that requires courage and commitment.

Drawing from the traditions of psychology and philosophy, I encourage you to find meaning and embrace authenticity through honest and sometimes challenging reflection. We’ll delve into the beliefs and values that shape your experiences, questioning assumptions and facing fears that may have been long avoided. This process requires confronting difficult truths, but through our shared courage, we’ll foster growth and a stronger connection to what truly matters to you.

Our sessions are tailored to your individual needs, combining existential insights with evidence-based practices. Alongside traditional talk therapy, we’ll explore techniques from positive psychology, movement, and the latest advancements in cognitive and neuroscience. By integrating these diverse methods, I aim to provide a holistic approach that promotes lasting change. While the path ahead may be challenging, embracing it can help you realize your potential.

A bit more about me…

I began studying philosophy at a young age, driven by a desire to understand myself and find my place in the world. This exploration into existential questions and the nature of reality eventually led me to psychology, where I could delve deeper into the human mind and behavior. My desire to become a therapist emerged when I experienced the profound impact of deep, exploratory conversations in my own life. Moments where two people engage—not to compete, but to genuinely listen, understand, and collaboratively delve into meaningful topics—revealed to me the transformative power of authentic dialogue. I believe that fostering this kind of connection is one of the most important aspects of our lives.

Engaging in open exploration of who we are and what we perceive with another person is, in my view, a profound form of intimacy. In a world that often feels isolating, such genuine connections become even more essential. Carl Jung captured this sentiment when he said, “Loneliness does not come from having no people around you, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you.” This insight resonates deeply with me and underscores my commitment to fostering meaningful dialogue and authentic understanding in my work as a therapist.
