Special areas of interest
I love working with attachment and attachment styles.
I use mindfulness as an effective tool for stress reduction, self-discovery and personal growth.
I am interested in understanding human relationships and love helping clients get a deep understanding of their relationship patterns (one tool I use is the Drama triangle).
Sexuality and sex life are fabulous topics to explore in therapy and discuss without the social taboos that surround related topics.
I love exploring dreams and using dreams as a tool to get into the otherwise hidden parts of the psyche. I mix the traditional dream interpretation with cutting-edge neuroscience of sleep and dream states.
For mindfulness classes follow this link.
I focus on the attainment of a goal that has been set in advance unless the client specifically wishes for a more exploratory approach. More about my therapeutic style here.
What to expect in the first appointment
During our first assessment appointment together we can define a general course of action. I am offering brief therapy as well as longer-term, open-ended therapy. After the first session, you can decide whether therapy is something for you.
Mindfulness Based Short Interventions
If you are looking for short-term, evidence-driven interventions targeting specific problems like Insomnia/Improving Sleep Quality and Overthinking/Chronic stress please refer to these short-term plans.
