• Symptoms as a form of communication

    In psychoanalytic/psychodynamic therapy, symptoms are viewed as a form of communication, representing repressed thoughts, unresolved conflicts, or unconscious desires. Rather than merely being problematic manifestations, symptoms are understood as symbolic expressions of internal psychological struggles. They provide clues to the inner world, offering insight into deeper emotional and mental processes.

    Through therapy, i will help you to decipher these symptoms, uncovering their meaning and facilitating the resolution of the underlying conflicts, ultimately leading to greater self-awareness and healing.

How do i work

As a psychodynamic and psychoanalytic therapist, I focus on the deeper meanings behind symptoms, attuning to what lies just beyond conscious awareness. My aim is to bring these hidden aspects into the secure space of the therapy room, where we can examine, comprehend, and transform them together.                                                                      I am deeply passionate about supporting individuals who are navigating the aftermath of challenging childhood experiences, as well as those seeking greater understanding of their path and true selves.                                                               My approach is grounded in the belief that there are no "right" or "wrong" answers—rather, I aim to go with the flow and have an open, collaborative conversation. I promote therapy as a safe space for self-expression, encouraging the exploration of free associations, dreams, symbols, and narratives.                                                  
When working with complex trauma, I place a strong emphasis on creating a deep sense of safety, helping clients regain their inner control and agency. I guide them in developing core skills to address trauma-related experiences, ensuring that we approach this sensitive material gradually. I use a three-stage model, beginning with building safety and skills, moving on to trauma work and integration, and ultimately guiding clients toward the safe learning of new ways to live in their current environment.
