I have been working as a psychologist since 2005. From 2005 to 2008, I worked as a counseling psychologist in a rehabilitation center. Since 2008, I have been working at a municipal psychiatric dispensary as a senior counseling psychologist, specializing in clinical psychodiagnostics. I collaborate with neurologists and psychiatrists (with client consent). I also run a private practice in my own office. My work primarily employs the Gestalt approach, respecting each individual’s right to live their own story without imposing labels of normality or pathology.
