My approach- Integrative psychotherapy
Taking a look inward requires vulnerability and bravery.
Opening up, speaking what has not been spoken, trusting and being vulnerable is courageous and a sign of strength. My approach is holistic and integrative, emphasis client's agency and strengths, recognizing unhealthy patterns, holding space, and improving functioning.
Working from an integrative approach, I utilize evidence-based techniques, such as CBT, ACT and mindfulness, psychodynamic, person-centered, narrative, and attachment approaches with a genuine, direct, down-to-earth therapeutic attitude. Accordingly, I combine in my work practical tools along with non-judgmental emotional process.

"
The most beautiful people we known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggles, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.
Beautiful people do not just happen".
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
