Approach

Existential-Integrative psychotherapy is an approach that combines the depth of existential philosophy with methods from other therapeutic disciplines, tailoring the process to meet the individual needs of clients at different times. This approach allows for a flexible and comprehensive therapy experience, addressing both profound life questions and practical daily challenges.

Integration of Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

As part of my training, I took advanced modules in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which further inform my practice. This allows me to help clients uncover and understand the unconscious influences and early experiences shaping their current behavior. By integrating psychodynamic principles, I can provide a deeper level of insight and healing, addressing both the conscious and unconscious aspects of your psyche.

Integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

In addition to psychodynamic principles, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into my practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors. This integration helps clients develop practical skills for managing stress, anxiety, and other challenges. By combining CBT with existential and psychodynamic approaches, I offer a well-rounded therapy experience that addresses immediate concerns while fostering long-term growth and self-understanding.
