In my journey, I have found that a relationship that can care with warmth and are also aware of pathological structures in psyche can make us emotionally alive again. I work as psychotherapist where I share what I have learnt through my relationships and offer a relationship where I would like to support you to make sense of your journey, and look at painful parts with warmth and curiosity, and support them in integration of psyche.
I am member of ISPS (International society of Psychological and Social approach to Psychosis) and IARPP (The International Association for Relational Psychoanalysis & Psychotherapy)

If I was a carpenter and you would come to me with a broken chair, then I will embrace the broken chair and give it space. I will sit with the brokenness and work with it. Over time, through work, it will be nourished into healthy chair. Similarly I do the emotional work, by sitting with the brokenness in clients and working with them. Therapy experience may enrich your quality of life, support and progress you in your chosen vocation, relationships and overall sense of self.
