Psychotherapy has been an important part of my life for more than 20 years. I was introduced to it as a participant in group psychotherapy (2001), and have continued with years of training and parallel work on myself. In 2008 I welcomed my first client. Since then <\/span>psychotherapy is my mission,<\/b> and continuing professional development and work on myself is an important part of it.<\/span><\/p>

I am a university graduate sociologist (2002) and a certified psychodynamic psychotherapist (2008) with a certificate from the European Association of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapies<\/a><\/strong> (2012) and a<\/span> European Diploma in Psychotherapy<\/a><\/strong> (2014) awarded by the European Association of Psychotherapy (EAP). I also work as a learning therapist and provide supervision for specialist and certified depth psychotherapists.<\/span><\/p>

From 2012 to 2017 I was Vice President and President of the Association for Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. After its annexation European Association of Psychoanalytic Approaches Slovenia (EZPPS)<\/a><\/strong> in 2017, I chaired the Honorary Tribunal of the EZPPS between 2019 and 2021. The EZPPS is a member of the Slovenian Umbrella Association for Psychotherapy (SKZP),<\/a><\/strong> where I was a member of the Honorary Tribunal in 2019 – 2023, and in 2023 I became Chair of the Honorary Tribunal of the SKZP and a member of the SKZP Media Group. <\/p>

I work in accordance with the Code of Ethics of the European Association of Psychoanalytic Approaches Slovenia (EZPPS)<\/a>, which<\/strong> is aligned with the ethical norms and standards of the Slovenian umbrella association for psychotherapy and the Slovenian Psychotherapy Association. European Association for Psychotherapy (EAP)<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
