Areas of therapy

 As a specializant in psychotherapy, I am well aware that people need to communicate; communication is essential to our survival. Every, even the smallest interaction we dedicate to another person (it can be just a smile or a nod), is called by the English term “stroke.” Therefore, stroke indicates the kind of attention we give to another person, and it is crucial that we understand that the success of this communication is exclusively dependent on the recipient.

Psychotherapy, besides dealing with observation and behaviour change, also focuses on understanding the roots of problems and the emotional causes lying beneath the surface. To assist you, I am able to provide:

PROBLEMS IN RELATIONSHIPS

  • Lack of trust, which can manifest through doubts, jealousy, and feelings of frustration.
  • Maintaining relationships with others becomes difficult due to frequent conflicts.
  • Dissatisfaction in the relationship because you struggle to express your needs, desires, or emotions.
  • Avoiding difficult conversations can lead to the accumulation of unresolved issues.
  • Feeling of alienation and a lack of intimacy that can lead to the cooling of the relationship.
  • Difficulties in managing emotional stress related to divorce.
  • Inability to say NO and express your own opinion.

LOW SELF-ESTEEM

  • You have difficulties in establishing and maintaining healthy relationships.
  • You avoid social situations because you feel inadequately confident.
  • You doubt your ability to make decisions.
  • You strive for perfectionism in the hope of gaining a sense of self-worth.
  • You are dissatisfied with your self-esteem or recovery after narcissistic abuse.
  • You have self-doubt and do not feel your own value.
  • You have difficulties expressing or accepting emotions.

OVERLOAD AND BURNOUT

  • Inability to perform tasks or a feeling of helplessness under pressure.
  • A sense of deep, chronic fatigue, regardless of rest.
