It depends on your goals, needs, situation and desired changes. During the first session, we can discuss your needs to create a plan that works best for you.
It depends on what exactly you are looking for and how ready you are to work on yourself and open up. A psychologist is not just someone who listens or gives advice. But a guide and a tool to help you understand your fears, desires, goals, and unresolved issues.
Life presents many challenges, and you can handle them on your own, with the help of friends, mentors, or self-reflection. The key is to understand whether the person you choose can truly help you to solve what’s troubling you. If one approach doesn’t work, another might be more effective.
I focus on making your life easier, not intensifying your struggles, using practical tools and a rational approach. You will feel heard, supported, accepted, and never judged.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling to cope with emotions, relationships, or life challenges, and the strategies that used to work no longer help, you may be seeking new tools to navigate the situation. Seeking support can provide you with clarity, relief, and effective strategies to improve your well-being and comfort of your life.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapeutic approach designed to help people process and heal from traumatic experiences and emotional distress. It involves guided eye movements while focusing on specific memories or feelings. This helps the brain reprocess those memories, reducing their emotional impact and allowing for healthier responses.
The goal of EMDR is to help clients break free from the burdens of the past and move into a healthy and productive state of mind. In other words that the past will stay in the past and will not control you in the present.
EMDR can address following emotional and psychological challenges, including:
• Trauma and PTSD
• Anxiety and Panic Disorders
• Grief and LossDepressionStress Management
• Self-esteem and Confidence Issues
• Stage fright
EMDR is particularly effective for unprocessed traumatic memories but can also benefit various other emotional and behavioral concerns.
Here are a few simple and useful tips:
1. Try to define your goal – think about what is bothering you and what questions you would like to discuss
2. Write down important thoughts – if you are afraid of forgetting something or find it difficult to express your feelings
3. Don’t worry if you don’t know where to start – this is completely normal. The psychologist will help guide the conversation in the right direction
4. Give yourself time after the consultation – try not to schedule important tasks immediately after the session, so you can transition calmly to your activities
5. And lastly, but just as importantly – psychological change is a process that requires time and effort, a shared effort.
