Most common questions

You can bring up topics such as: intimacy and desire communication difficulties sexual concerns or anxieties relationship conflicts shame, guilt, or fear around sexuality identity exploration dating and attachment patterns emotional regulation stress, self-esteem, and personal development mood, anxiety - any difficulties you feel like you’re facing You do not need to “have a serious problem” to seek support. Many people come simply because they want greater self-understanding, healthier relationships, or a more fulfilling intimate life.

Booking a first session can feel like a big step, especially when the topics involve intimacy, emotions, or relationships. The first session is a full professional consultation where we explore your situation, needs, and goals, and begin understanding how we might work together. In the first session, we may explore: your current situation and concerns relationship or intimacy difficulties emotional patterns or challenges what you would like to change or understand better what type of support would be most helpful

No. Many people seek support not because something is “wrong,” but because they want greater self-awareness, healthier relationships, better communication, more satisfying intimacy, or support during life transitions. Therapy and psychological support can also be preventive and growth-oriented.

Yes. Many people begin therapy with a general sense of feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, emotionally stuck, anxious, dissatisfied, or uncertain rather than with one clearly defined problem. Part of the therapeutic process can involve understanding emotions, patterns, needs, and experiences that may initially feel difficult to explain. You do not need to have everything “figured out” before seeking support. You can find your therapeutic goals with the help of your therapist.

Yes. I offer both online and in-person sessions for individuals and couples.

Yes. Sessions are confidential and conducted according to professional ethical standards. Confidentiality may only be broken in exceptional situations required by law or when there is a serious risk of harm to yourself or others.

Many therapists offer brief introductory calls, and for some clients this can be a helpful way to ask practical questions before booking. I am always happy to answer logistical questions by email, Whatsapp or phone,  such as information about availability, the format of sessions, my approach to therapy - or basically any other questions you might have. However, I do not offer free introduction consultations because I believe that the concerns people bring to therapy deserve sufficient time, attention, and professional care. Even within a short conversation, important personal topics often emerge, and it would not feel ethical or clinically meaningful to begin exploring them without the time and structure necessary to do so responsibly. The first session is therefore a full consultation. During this meeting, we have enough time to discuss what brings you to therapy, your current situation, relevant background information, and your goals and expectations. It also allows you to experience how I work, ask questions, and decide whether you feel comfortable continuing our work together. Finding the right therapist is important, and I understand that this is an investment of both time and resources. My aim is to ensure that our first meeting provides genuine value and a meaningful starting point, rather than a brief conversation that only scratches the surface of the issues you may be facing.

There is no universal timeline. Some people seek short-term support around a specific issue, while others choose longer-term therapeutic work. Some people just want a singular consultation. The process depends on your goals, needs, and personal pace. It can be between a couple of months to a couple of years.

I regularly participate in professional supervision with a certified psychotherapist-supervisor. Supervision is an essential part of ethical and responsible therapeutic practice. It means that my work is continuously supported, reflected upon, and developed with the guidance of a highly qualified and experienced professional. A certified psychotherapist-supervisor is not simply another (but more experienced) therapist. They are an advanced specialist trained to oversee clinical work, support professional development, maintain ethical standards, and help ensure the quality and safety of therapeutic practice. For clients, this means that the therapeutic process is not based solely on one person’s perspective, but is supported by ongoing professional reflection and accountability.

Sex education focuses on providing reliable knowledge, psychoeducation, and practical understanding around sexuality, relationships, and emotional wellbeing. Sex therapy tackles psychological, emotional, and interpersonal factors affecting one’ sexual life, health, satisfaction. Psychological support focuses on psychoeducation and strategies to better understand one’s emotions, patterns and behaviours. Psychotherapy is a deeper, longer-term therapeutic process focused for e.g. on psychological change, emotional processing, and relational patterns. It requires additional training and is regulated in many countries. It has a structured, professional framework and the highest ethical standards.

A sexologist is a specialist who works with topics related to sexuality, intimacy, relationships, desire, sexual wellbeing, identity, communication, and emotional aspects of intimate life. Sessions may include psychological support, psychoeducation, emotional exploration, and practical guidance depending on your needs.

Booking a first session can feel like a big step, especially when the topics involve intimacy, emotions, or relationships. The first session is a full professional consultation where we explore your situation, needs, and goals, and begin understanding how we might work together. In the first session, we may explore: your current situation and concerns relationship or intimacy difficulties emotional patterns or challenges what you would like to change or understand better what type of support would be most helpful

Yes. My work is based on openness, professionalism, and a non-judgmental approach. Many people carry shame, anxiety, confusion, or fear around sexuality and relationships. Therapy and sexological support should be a safe space to discuss topics that may feel difficult elsewhere.

Yes. I work with both individuals and couples. Couples sessions may focus on communication, intimacy, emotional disconnection, sexual difficulties, trust, conflict, desire discrepancies, or relationship dynamics. I also provide polycules therapy and counselling.

Yes. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirmative and inclusive. I work with queer individuals, same-sex couples, diverse identities, and non-traditional relationship structures in a respectful and supportive way.

People seek sexological support for many reasons, including: low desire mismatched libido in relationships sexual anxiety difficulty with intimacy painful emotions connected to sex shame or guilt communication around sex identity exploration difficulties with arousal or satisfaction fear of vulnerability or closeness

No. Therapy can support emotional wellbeing, relationships, self-development, communication, stress management, identity exploration, intimacy, and personal growth, not only diagnosed mental health conditions.

That is very common. Many people were never taught how to speak openly about intimacy or emotions. Therapy moves at your pace.

Most people begin with weekly sessions to create consistency and therapeutic continuity. Depending on your needs and goals, sessions may later become less frequent.

Finding the right specialist is not only about qualifications, but also about feeling emotionally safe, understood, and respected. A good therapeutic relationship should allow you to speak openly without fear of judgment. It can be helpful to consider: whether the specialist works in an evidence-based and ethical way whether they have appropriate training and supervision whether their approach feels compatible with your needs whether you feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics with them Therapy is a collaborative process, and feeling safe within that relationship matters.

Yes. I work with people in ethically non-monogamous (ENM) relationships, including polyamorous, open, and relationship-anarchist dynamics. Relationships outside traditional monogamous structures can involve unique emotional, relational, and communication challenges, as well as experiences of stigma, misunderstanding, or lack of supportive spaces. Therapy can provide space to explore topics such as: communication and boundaries jealousy and insecurity attachment dynamics emotional safety intimacy and connection relationship agreements conflict resolution identity and authenticity navigating multiple relationships My approach is non-judgmental and affirmative. I do not treat consensual non-monogamy itself as a problem, pathology, or dysfunction. Instead, I focus on helping clients better understand themselves, their relationships, and their emotional needs within the relational structures that feel authentic to them.

Yes. I work with neurodivergent clients, including ADHD, autism, sensory sensitivity, masking, social exhaustion, emotional overwhelm, and different communication or relational styles. I understand that neurodivergence can influence many areas of life, including relationships, intimacy, emotional regulation, sexuality, self-esteem, burnout, boundaries, and everyday functioning. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming, meaning I do not view neurodivergence as something that needs to be “fixed.” Instead, I aim to create a supportive and non-judgmental space where your experiences, needs, communication style, and ways of processing the world are respected. Therapy can also involve exploring the impact of masking, chronic stress, shame, relationship difficulties, sensory experiences, or feeling misunderstood in personal, social, or professional environments.
