Learn how to approach any complex case from a modern psychoanalytic perspective.

I offer consultation for psychotherapists, dieticians, lawyers, medical doctors and other professionals, supporting you in handling complex cases.

My consultation services provide a supportive setting to share & discuss experiences related to your clinical material.

Engaging in consultation is a wise, effective and generative choice when handling complex cases. Establishing a consultation practice enhances both depth and security in your work.

Supporting your Professional Path

Consultation, approached from a modern psychoanalytic perspective, parallels psychotherapy by emphasizing emotional resonance, countertransference experiences, significant interventions, and enduring growth.
