Mr Ognjen Vukotić

Registered Clinical Psychologists

I guide self-discovery through therapy infused with art, psychedelic experience integration, cinema, RPGs, and gaming—transforming healing into immersive storytelling where the mind plays, explores, and rewrites its own narrative.

About Me

I am a registered clinical psychologist in JF, MG, Brazil. I help you manage addiction, navigate life transitions, and pursue personal development. I work with art therapy, music therapy, relationship counseling, psychoeducation, cross-cultural issues, and dream work.

Approach

I am basing my psychotherapy approach on the teachings of Claudio Naranjo and it's integration within relational paradigm of Gestalt approach.

Gestalt approach influenced by Claudio Naranjo and later Alejandro Jodorowsky, widely used in Latin America Gestalt community gave me a possibility to truly find an approach that I practice even as my day to day life.

My psychotherapy approach is not based on problem-solving paradigm, but to make more sense of our simptoms and what story they are telling to us. I'm strogly interested in what is behind our everyday behaviours and decisions, as in my works I'm trying to investigate depths of consciousness and practice awareness with my clients.

In my works I am using fantasy, art and culture as an integrative and investigative tool of our processes. It helps me and the clients to see that their life stories are nothing more than a beautiful art.

I'm here to listen and aknowledge your life stories with all of it's ups and downs. From your saddest moment, to your happiest paths and wishes. From your broken and scattered dreams to the heights of your successes. ..

All of these experiences makes us who we are. Every look of a mother, every rejection of a loved one, every hug, every laughter or cry, every moment lived by us and experienced by the moment we meet in therapeutic healing space will make you who you are and how you define you.

I'm here to hold you in a safe space, while we together look at the traumas that might be defining your decisions and preserving the way you are adressing your problems.

I will empower you, seek and train with you your powers that you hold within yourself, and follow you down the path of confronting our shadows.
