About me

I am a clinical psychologist trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, neurodivergent & 🌈 LGBTQIA+ friendly. I work both online and at my office in Bucharest (Piața Unirii area). I work with people who struggle with anxiety (panic attacks, social anxiety, excessive worrying, fobias), depression, bipolar disorder, insomnia, burnout, procrastination, and relationship difficulties. I've also worked people with behavioral addictions (e.g., social media addiction, smartphone addiction, pornography addiction, and Internet addiction), difficulties with their sexuality and intimacy, discrimination, online dating, and challenges facing the LGBT community. My areas of expertise include LGBTQIA+-affirmative therapy, trans-affirmative therapy, and BDSM/kink-affirmative therapy—explicitly supportive approaches that do not center every issue on sexual orientation or gender identity, but rather address them in a way that honors who you truly are inside. I work with queer women, lesbians, bisexuals, pansexuals, and people in same-sex relationships who struggle with everything from relationship issues to ways to express their anger, desires, and complexity in healthy ways without having to explain the basics of their sexuality. I also work with gay, queer, bisexual and non-identifying men on issues such as shame and low self-esteem, family tension, dating burnout, difficulties with intimacy and belonging. Sometimes, life can bring us moments when we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from ourselves. During such times, it can be valuable to have a space where we can be listened to with empathy and without judgment. If: - you are dealing with anxiety - you have lost your motivation, you feel that you no longer see life's meaning, you feel overwhelmed - you want to better manage your relationship problems - you are still discovering yourself and are facing uncertainty, confusion or feeling overwhelmed - you are trying to reconcile different aspects of your identity (faith, culture, values) with who you are deep down - you are LGBTQIA+ 🌈 (gay, bisexual, lesbian, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, or other gender identity and expression, including non-binary, genderqueer, genderfluid, gender-expansive, agender, or otherwise) - you are part of the BDSM, fet, kink, poly communities or have an alternative lifestyle - you are a person with disabilities (including psychiatric disorders) I will meet you exactly where you are now and accompany you, with care and empathy, towards more clarity, balance and the change you need, respecting your rhythm, needs and experience.
