Are you an emotionally sensitive person? Do you often feel that your emotions are often intense and out of control? Do you think that your emotions don't mean anything except to remind you how different you are from everyone else? Do you think that you are fake and often vascilate between pretense and secretiveness? Do you often feel depressed and anxious at the same time and this combination heightens your feelings of shame and thoughts of worthlessness? If any of the above sounds familiar; then, this page is for you and welcome!
What to expect
I am not a passive listener and my therapeutic style is active, transparent and interactional. In addition, I often give feedback to my clients and solicit their feedback at the end of the session. I believe that the relationship between the therapist and the client is an important aspect of psychotherapy. In order to facilitate change and healing, I engage in a warm, empathic and genuine dialogue. This dialogue might include several components.
I will inquire about your goals, dreams, hopes and aspirations. I primarily work in the here and now and often promote action-oriented interventions. It does not mean that I am not interested in your past; I will inquire about your past in order to better understand your current difficulties and focus on the current events and ways of coping. Then, we will work together at achieving your goals and aspirations and finding ways to improve your quality of life.
