Therapeutic Approaches

• Psychodynamic Therapy

“I understand that reaching out to a psychologist is a big step for many people. Therefore, no matter who is sitting in front of me, I try to provide a gentle, kind and flexible approach and to offer a safe space for self-reflection. I take the time to listen carefully to people’s concerns and, together, to work out a way forward.”
