Description
My therapeutic approach is grounded in principles such as unconditional positive regard and empathy. Drawing from a psychoanalytical perspective, particularly influenced by Jungian psychoanalysis, I believe in exploring the depths of one's identity as a key element in understanding and addressing various mental health issues. I consider the roots of our challenges often lie in our identities and past experiences, shaping our minds and influencing our current mental well-being. Through this lens, I work collaboratively with clients, fostering a safe and non-judgmental space.
