I am a supervisee of Jungian analysis at the renowned C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, which is categorized among psychoanalytic therapeutic approaches. I completed my Master’s degree in Analytical Psychology with a focus on Jungian and Post-Jungian Studies at the University of Essex in England. Additionally, I obtained a diploma in Psychotherapy Science from the Sigmund Freud University in Ljubljana.

I work with clients from Slovenia and the USA and collaborate with the Guild of Analytical Psychologists (G.A.P) in London. I have the privilege of working with a diverse group of clients in my practice. Each of them faces unique mental health challenges, including trauma from familial sexual abuse, clinical depression, and suicidal thoughts. Some younger clients struggle with issues at home due to unhealthy relationships with their parents, while others face narcissistic sociopathy and pedophilic tendencies.

Over the past ten years, I have gained significant experience in diverse working environments. During my work in England, I closely collaborated as a mental health counselor with a diverse group of clients diagnosed with various conditions, including schizophrenia, personality disorders, autism, OCD, PTSD, and learning difficulties. Additionally, I actively supported former homeless individuals transitioning to a new phase of their lives. My work as a personal assistant deeply immersed me in working with individuals with severe physical disabilities. I further enriched my experience by volunteering in drug rehabilitation societies and day centers for drug users in Slovenia. I was also involved in a crisis center for children and adolescents, providing support to children in distress.

Every therapy is completely different, as it is tailored to each individual. This is what I love most about therapy - it respects the individual, their story, wounds, strength, and destiny. In analysis, I will encourage you to share as openly and honestly as possible about yourself and your experiences, including your emotions, worries, regrets, fantasies, fears, and dreams. Alongside my knowledge and experience, I will bring intuition, warmth, humor, and dedication to our work. While therapy can seem like a daunting challenge as we face difficult feelings together, it is also full of discoveries, joys, admiration, and beauty.

I am grateful to have this professional path and the opportunity to dedicate myself to a lifelong study of the human soul and spirit.

Therapies are conducted in Slovenian and English.
