About Me

I offer a grounded, welcoming space for individuals navigating life's complexities. With many years in Counseling and psychotherapy, I support people across a broad range of experiences. This includes children and youth, those on the autism spectrum, LGBT clients, and individuals facing health challenges like dialysis. My practice provides a calm environment where we can explore your unique path and find practical ways forward.

Approach

Building on a steady, welcoming tone, sessions move at a practical, humane pace where safety and small experiments come first. I meet people in Tirana and online, offering work in Albanian, English and French to fit life and medical schedules. Typical sessions blend focused skill practice, reflective listening and gentle pacing, with short between-session tasks and, when relevant, coordination with care teams to support long-term health. This approach suits those facing identity questions, chronic illness or layered trauma who want concrete change.
