Types of consultations
Individual
Have you found yourself in a challenging life situation, feeling under pressure and not knowing how to get out? Do you have trouble saying no or do you have recurring conflicts in your life with people you care about? Do you feel empty, lifeless and without purpose? Are you bothered by psychosomatic problems? Can't get over the past or decide what to do in the future? Do you want to evolve towards greater satisfaction in life? This type of consultation will be for you.
Careers
Deciding what to do next with your working life? Do you feel stuck in your current job and don't know what to do to feel a greater sense of satisfaction? Wondering how to approach your job search? Do you want to know what preparing for an interview and impressing your dream employer should look like? If you answered yes to any of these questions, career consultations can be an effective way for you to navigate these issues.
Couples
Every partnership goes through phases of crisis and phases of flourishing. This type of counselling is suitable for couples who want to develop their relationship at whatever stage you are at. It can be about difficult topics such as infidelity, conflicts, misunderstanding, estrangement... Equally beneficial are couples consultations at times when your relationship is flourishing and you both feel you want to pay attention to minor distractions so that they don't grow into bigger problems.
About me
My passion is to become aware of our inner sources of strength. They help us deal with whatever life brings. I am constantly amazed at how often we just need to give a short safe space to fully express our inner parts, emotions, ideas or fears and miracles begin to happen.
My psychological consultations use elements from the direction of process-oriented psychologywhich I have been studying since 2017. This psychotherapeutic training is accredited Slovak Institute for Education in Psychotherapy. I am currently working under the supervision of Institute of Process Oriented Psychology Slovakia and I am a member of Slovak Psychotherapeutic Society and registered in Slovak Chamber of Psychologists. I completed my Master's degree in Psychology at Comenius University in Bratislava (2014). For years I worked in the field of occupational psychology with a focus on employee selection, management and HR consulting. My experience also includes areas such as crisis intervention, coaching and distance counselling. My full professional CV can be found at here.
Currently, in addition to taking care of my son, I am engaged in private consulting practice in Slovak and English and I also provide psychological first aid within the framework of "employee assistance" programs in cooperation with GrowMe a ENEF Consulting. My heart project is OZ Centre for Therapeutic Servicesthat I helped found. Our mission is to make quality mental health care accessible to all people, regardless of their socioeconomic status.

Basic principles of consultation:
Voluntariness. You are not committing to a predetermined number of sessions. You may voluntarily end the series of sessions at any point.
Confidentiality. All personal information is kept confidential and is not shared with others. The only exceptions are situations where there would be a serious threat to your life or the lives of those around you.
Professionalism. To guarantee the quality of psychological help, I regularly consult (supervise) my procedures with experienced mentors of psychotherapeutic work.
