My approach is based on a comprehensive assessment and an individualised treatment plan that takes your personal circumstances into account. Depending on your needs, treatment may include psychiatric care, psychotherapy, or group therapy.
Psychiatric Care ▼
A careful assessment and a thorough understanding of your individual situation form the basis of every treatment. I believe it is important to see each person as more than a diagnosis, taking into account their personality, life history and current circumstances.
Together, we will discuss the treatment options best suited to your needs, ranging from psychotherapy and psychosocial interventions to medication, where appropriate.
I offer assessment and treatment for a wide range of mental health conditions, including:
• Adjustment disorders
• Anxiety disorders, including panic disorder and phobias
• Bipolar disorder
• Depression and burnout
• Eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder)
• Personality disorders
• Psychosomatic disorders
• Sleep disorders
• Schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, including the early detection of psychotic disorders
• Trauma-related disorders
• Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
Psychotherapy ▼
Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of your emotions, thoughts, patterns of behaviour and relationships. It can help you develop new ways of coping with life's challenges, strengthen your personal resources and bring about lasting change.
I offer individual psychotherapy in a seated setting, with sessions taking place once or twice a week.
Psychotherapy may be helpful if you are experiencing:
• Difficulties coping with everyday life or fulfilling your potential
• Low self-esteem
• Anxiety, panic attacks and stress
• Depression and depressive symptoms
• Challenging life events and periods of personal transition
• Issues related to fertility, pregnancy and parenthood
• Traumatic experiences
• Recurring conflicts in close relationships
• Destructive patterns of behaviour (e.g. impulsivity, anger outbursts or self-harm)
• Marked emotional instability
• Difficulties with intimacy or sexuality
• Sleep problems and insomnia
Group psychotherapy ▼
Group psychotherapy can be particularly helpful if you experience difficulties in relating to others or find yourself repeating patterns that make interpersonal relationships challenging or distressing. Through interaction with other group members, it becomes possible to gain a deeper understanding of your own feelings, patterns of behaviour and interpersonal dynamics.
The group provides a safe and supportive environment for personal growth, new experiences and mutual support within a psychoanalytic framework. Sessions take place in a small group of no more than nine participants.
