As a private individual

I strive to know the world from as many perspectives and ways as possible. Life for me is a continuously changing journey, and it's this change that gives it the greatest value. In the words of Carl Rogers, a famous American psychologist and one of my professional role models:

“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.”

In my free time, I mostly spend it reading and expanding my knowledge. For relaxation, I meet friends, take long walks, play complex thought-provoking games, or immerse myself in the diversity of various music genres.

For four years, I've been DJing as a hobby, which has been a unique way to experience my emotions and connect with others.

As I was very interested in biology in high school, I started my university studies in this field, but I soon realized it wasn't my path. This is when my interest in psychology began, so I started reading psychology-themed books, listening to podcasts, and taking personality tests. Through these, I grew closer to psychology. Finally, I decided to pursue it at a more serious level. Even after the first semester at university – I felt in the right place.

Since then, I graduated and started volunteering at a foundation for adult counseling and working in child protection.

I feel like I've found my calling, where I can use my interest in others and empathy, my deep positivity, and my love for learning and development.

Even though the road here was tough, and I know there are many more challenges and lessons ahead, I am grateful for every day spent with psychology. My personal life is also enriched by those internal values that are important to me in my work.

As a therapist

My clients come to me with various problems, such as anxiety, self-esteem issues, indecisiveness, life management, communication, or relationship difficulties.

I believe that everyone has the ability to grow positively and that everyone can overcome their problems.

My job is to create an environment where this growth can take place, and to accompany it with genuine empathy and attention. The previously mentioned Carl Rogers and humanistic psychology provide the guidelines upon which I build our work together.

These are the foundations I rely on in every therapeutic relationship, while also recognizing the potential in the diversity of psychology. Every person, every problem, every situation is different. Therefore, reflecting on this diversity, I incorporate elements from other theories into the sessions as needed by the situation.

I also consider psychoeducation important and strive to use every tool to help my clients truly understand the processes happening within them. I believe that with the help of joint work, the resources found deep in the soul can be unleashed in everyone.

In terms of methods, I enjoy working with altered states of consciousness, whether it's relaxation, meditation, or various forms of hypnosis. This topic really began to interest me at university and still strongly engages me today. That's why I decided to start the MAKOMP Complex Integrative Therapist training, which I am currently continuing.

Alongside my individual counseling work, I also work part-time in child protection, where I provide psychological support for foster parents and foster children.
