I currently have weekend availability for new clients.

I work as a phenomenological and psychodynamic psychotherapist in a quiet and safe space where reflexive awareness, honest self-reflection, inquisitiveness and courage are key parts of the process toward increased self-knowledge, and an embodied sense of personal growth and self-development.

I approach my work in an honest way with a non-judgmental attitude. I put effort into creating an encounter with my clients that is genuine and compassionate and which promotes emotional congruence. Thus my work is fundamentally relational and supportive of individual human dignity. Moreover, focussing on strengths, I endeavour to work with the values and the life-world of my clients in order to enable desired changes.

I favour phenomenological methods of intervention and believe with Merleau-Ponty that 'Nothing is more difficult than to know precisely what we see' - such that attaining clarity and coherence in perception is something I strive for in my therapy, for both my clients and myself.
