Everyone comes with something different. One person needs to understand where what's happening to them comes from. Another needs something concrete to do by next week. Another needs to settle down first, before they can talk about what brought them there.
My training in integrative psychotherapy covers several schools of therapy, and from them I choose what fits what you bring into the practice.
Techniques help, but what matters more is feeling that I understand you and respect your pace, so that you have the safety and support you need while we work together. That's why I look at you as a whole: at what you think, at what you feel, at what happens in your body, and at the way you live your life.
All of this connects, even if at first it might not seem so.
You don't adapt to the method; the method adapts to you.
I'm a university professor with a doctorate in law, at the Faculty of Legal, Economic and Administrative Sciences in Craiova, Spiru Haret University. I teach and do research in the field of private law.
It has no direct link to what we do in the practice, and my PhD is not in psychology. I mentioned it because it explains where I come from, and because years of teaching taught me something I use every day: how to explain a complicated thing in simple words, without simplifying it.
About coaching.
I'm trained in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and in NLP Coaching at Master Coach level. I also work in coaching, for clarity in decisions, personal and professional goals, and performance.
It's important to know that neuro-linguistic programming and coaching are activities I keep separate from integrative psychotherapy, and that I offer them through my matchmaking agency, iMatch International, not through the practice.
About iMatch.
I'm also the founder of iMatch International, a matchmaking agency that finds the right life partner based on who a person really is, not on who only seems right at the start.
It's a project separate from the practice: in the agency I work with people looking for a relationship, and at the practice, among other things, I work with people who want to understand why they always end up in relationships that finish the same way, and how they can stop ending up in the same place.
That's reason enough for a first conversation. Write to me about what's happening, in a few lines. I'll reply personally.
