// Personally

I enjoy spending time with my wife and our 8 year old daughter. We go for walks in nature, swimming, visiting new places, biking and rollerblading, day trips and camping. We also enjoy cooking, listening to music, dancing and relaxing around a camp fire when camping or in our backyard.
I also enjoy time by myself going in nature, having moments of self-reflection and stillness, reading and listening to music.

// Why Therapy?

My passion is understanding and empowering others.

 

Since my youth, it was and remains my passion to understand myself and to empower people I come in contact with, developing a harmonious relationship with themselves and with others.

I believe we are all part of something greater.

 

I see a human being as a “part” belonging to something bigger than themselves, “the whole” (e.g. family, society, universe).

I help people establish healthy relationships.

 

In my work I help my clients to establish balanced and healthy relationships with themselves and with “the whole”.
