About me and my therapy practice

My particular field of interest is the treatment of eating disorders - particularly in children and adolescents. I have personally witnessed how eating disorders sufferers frequently feel stigmatized and judged and am passionate about creating a supportive, communicative and empathic treatment model in which patients are understood in an holistic way and provided with multifaceted psychotherapeutic support in order to make a full recovery. I have worked for over 17 years in the field of Mental Health – treating Eating Disorders, as well as Addictions, Trauma, Bereavement, Familial Conflicts and Stress- related conditions. I am an advocate of removing all stigma around mental health issues and am dedicated to providing exemplary care for those who deal with these conditions.
