Why do we love the way we love?

How we live and shape relationships is learned and can be changed throughout life. I help you design your relationships the way you desire.

Profesional and Personal Orientation

In my work I take a holistic approach and include the body, mind and soul. 

​

My educational and professional orientation is based on the systemic way of thinking. This means that I look at behaviour in the context of interactions with the system, i.e. the world around us.

​

I am convinced that, without exception, every situation can be changed and that you carry the solutions (because there is always more than just one) within you. I see it as my task to help you make them visible!

​

My sessions are characterized by precise questions on my part, sharing facts and scientific research findings, relaxation techniques and suggesting physical exercises to be carried out at home.

Theoretical Orientation

Sessions are interactive and in addition to the classic form of talk therapy can also include exercises with therapeutic materials (paper cards, figures, symbols).

SYSTEMIC

We look at your concerns in a broader way and see them in the context of the world around you.

SEXOCORPOREL

A holistic approach to sex therapy that also includes physical exercises.

EDUCATIONAL

I will debunk up myths and explain what facts science has to offer you.

​
