ABOUT

ABOUT ME

ABOUT ME

I am a psychologist (counselor), a neuropsychologist and a clinical psychotherapist. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Post-Rationalist Therapy, EMDR therapy and Mindfulness.

In my clinical approach, I believe that self-awareness and self-development can be achieved if you and I keep together a non-judgemental approach towards feelings and behaviours. Rather, we ought to be curious about underlying needs that are trying to be fulfilled.

Having been an expat myself, I have a special interest in expatriates' issues.
