Counseling
"Every moment in which you are present, opens the possibility of presence in those around you."
(Ken McLeod)
In my experience, in most cases people do have the resources to overcome their difficulties, but on the other hand sometimes it can be hard to access these resources on their own. In these cases counseling can be helpful.
As counseling psychologist, my primary aim is to support my clients in a process of self-exploration. I strive to listen and be present in this process, and to be open to the experiences that emerge. I don’t just listen to you, but also share my own point of view or feelings, if I feel that this can help you to better understand and accept your experiences, and to experience changes in your point of view, emotions and reactions. I don't stick to dogmas, but react to the specific situation and person. I aim to be as open and honest in the relationship as possible.
Each person knows best their own life, their own experiences, therefore I cannot tell someone else what would be right for them (right decision, direction, goal, etc.) But I can assist them in discovering that for themselves.
My service does not aim at curing diseases. I help people in overcoming their stuckness in life by facilitating their personal development and self-exploration.

About me
I received my psychologist degree (MA) from Eötvös Loránd University (Budapest, Hungary) and my person-centered counselor certification from the Hungarian Association for Person-Centered Psychotherapy and Counseling. I am also certified by PCE Europe - European Network For Person-Centered and Experiential Psychotherapy and Counseling. I am taking part in continuous personal development at Dr. Manu Bazzano's (London-based psychotherapist, teacher and scholar) professional workshops and courses, and professional programs of Rogers Centre Foundation (Budapest, Hungary). I have published two academic articles in psychotherapy journals.
Besides working in private practice, I have worked in various fields as psychologist: as researcher, as counselor in an addiction counseling center, as counselor in a homeless shelter, and also as school psychologist. I have facilitated numerous self-development groups and workshops at Rogers Centre Foundation, where I was team member for 5 years. Altogether, I have more than 8 years of experience as counseling psychologist.
