About

With over two decades of experience in clinical practice, my vocation has been dedicated to supporting people in caring for their mental health and seeking profound well-being. As a psychoanalytically oriented clinical psychologist, I understand that taking the first step toward therapy requires courage, but also the certainty of having an ethical, safe, and judgment-free space. Throughout these years, I have maintained a constant commitment to continuing education, now supported by a master's degree in contemporary psychoanalytic approaches. This combination of experience and ongoing learning allows me to offer you close, thoughtful support tailored to your unique situation.
