About me

My work is grounded in the principles of Gestalt therapy, which does not judge or offer universal instructions, but helps you find your own solutions through a better understanding of yourself, your needs and your resources.
In practice, this means I will engage in a lively dialogue with you, offer you feedback and help you become aware of what is happening within you right now, so that you can find the inner resources for a better present.

Services

Individual therapy

Individual therapy is a space where you don’t have to face your struggles alone – whether you are dealing with specific difficulties such as depression or burnout, or a general sense of unease. I will help you explore your current needs and find the resources for a more satisfying and fulfilling life.

What psychotherapy can bring you

  • A kinder relationship with yourself, greater self-confidence and self-understanding.
  • Healthier relationships with others in which you feel safe.
  • Greater resilience in coping with life crises and changes.
  • Life satisfaction that comes from finding joy and meaning.
  • Relief that comes from safely working through trauma, calming anxiety and overcoming burnout or depression.

Couples therapy

In couples therapy, I create a neutral environment for partners who want to rebuild trust or overcome a period of crisis. I will help you gain insight into your own needs and those of your relationship as a whole, and find ways to communicate them clearly, so that your partnership can once again be a safe and fulfilling place.

As a couple, you can develop

  • Strategies for handling recurring conflicts and disagreements.
  • Mutual understanding and respect for each other’s needs and views.
  • A safe space to rebuild trust in the relationship, e.g. after an affair.
  • Clarity on whether to continue the relationship, or finding a respectful way to separate.

Terms

Regularity
Effective therapy requires regularity, most often once a week or once a fortnight, which we will agree on together. For reasons of effectiveness, I do not offer less frequent sessions.
Rescheduling
A session can be rescheduled free of charge (by email or phone) no later than 24 hours in advance. For later changes, I charge the full amount. Thank you for respecting my time and availability.
Insurance contributions
I participate in the preventive programmes of health insurance companies (e.g. VZP contributes up to CZK 5,000). I recommend checking the current terms directly with your insurance company.
Confidentiality and supervision
Confidentiality and ethics are fundamental to me. I adhere to the ethical code of the European Association for Psychotherapy and have my work regularly supervised to ensure a fully safe and professional approach.
I adhere to data protection principles.

In accordance with Act No. 101/2000 Coll. on the Protection of Personal Data and Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (GDPR), I hereby inform my clients about how their personal data is handled and processed.

  • I collect client data to the following extent: first name (surname is not required), phone number, and optionally email address, solely for the purposes of mutual communication (rescheduling or cancelling sessions).
  • This data is processed only by me and is not shared with any third party.
  • During therapy I take personal notes in anonymised form (clients cannot be identified from these notes, and they are not linked to the personal data listed above). They are therefore not personal data under Act No. 101/2000 Coll. and are not subject to the personal data processing measures under the above-mentioned regulations. These notes are used solely for my therapeutic work and are never accessible to third parties.
  • I am not a clinical psychologist and therefore do not maintain medical records as required by the relevant legislation.
