“I’m a Master's degree psychologist with many years of experience in counseling work with adults. I do counseling and gestalt psychotherapy, which enhances clients' awareness, enables new insights, and leads to changes in behavior and experiences.”

About Me

I am deeply passionate about psychotherapy and the meaningful change it can bring to people’s lives. With a background in psychology and extensive experience working both in Serbia and abroad, I have developed a strong belief in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship. My work as a Counselling Psychologist and Gestalt Psychotherapist is grounded in the conviction that awareness, presence, and personal responsibility can help individuals overcome emotional challenges and reconnect with their authentic selves. Having lived and worked in different cultures, I bring openness, empathy, and a deep respect for each person’s unique story. For me, psychotherapy is not only a profession but a calling — a space where people can heal, grow, and discover inner resources they didn’t know they had.

Approach

My approach to therapy is rooted in Gestalt psychotherapy, a modern and highly effective form of therapy that emphasizes the "here and now." This means we focus on your present experiences, emotions, and thoughts, helping you become more aware of how you interact with the world around you and how those patterns affect your well-being. I take a phenomenological approach, which means we explore your unique perspective without imposing assumptions or judgments, allowing for a deeper understanding of your feelings and behaviors. This method helps you reconnect with yourself in an authentic way, leading to profound insights and personal growth. In Gestalt therapy, we also work with the body, recognizing that physical sensations are closely connected to our emotional and mental states. This mind-body connection is a key aspect of healing, as it allows for a more holistic approach to your therapy. I truly believe that everything can be healed and transformed through authentic contact. This means that the therapeutic relationship itself—based on trust, openness, and genuine connection—plays a pivotal role in your healing process. By fostering this meaningful contact, we can work together to address your struggles and empower you to create lasting change in your life.

Services

As a psychologist specializing in Gestalt psychotherapy, I offer a unique approach tailored to those facing the challenges of adapting to new cultures or re-adjusting when returning home. Having lived abroad for many years myself, I deeply understand the emotional and psychological struggles that expats and immigrants often face, particularly when dealing with culture shock, reverse culture shock, and the process of adaptation. My practice is centered on helping individuals navigate the complexities of living between cultures, whether it's managing the difficulties of settling into a new environment or re-integrating after a return to their home country. I provide a safe, supportive space for my clients to explore their feelings, gain insight, and work through the emotional hurdles that come with these transitions. If you're looking for someone who truly understands the challenges of living abroad and returning home, I am here to help you find balance, healing, and a deeper understanding of yourself.
