About me

Hi ! Nice to have you here. Let me introduce myself - I am a lot of things; psychologist, yoga teacher, mother, partner, nature lover. Over the years I have worked in different fields in mental health care, as a neuropsychologist and as a policy-researcher of international mental health care, all while living in different countries. I have always had a strong interest in our biological system (our physical health) and how it influences our mental health. My professional and personal experiences made me realize the need for mental health care specifically focused on women’s health through the course of life. With my background and knowledge I am here to provide therapy sessions especially for women.

During our sessions I want to work with you to create space for learning, vulnerable moments and self growth. I am looking forward to building a connection, and a safe space for listening. I am trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This means we will work with your cognitions and behaviours and we will investigate how they influence your daily life. We will have a look at what values are important to you and how you can align your thoughts and behaviours with your values to feel better in life.
