Body-Oriented and Mindfulness-Centered Psychotherapist
Languages: English, Croatian
My work is grounded in somatic psychotherapy and integrates transpersonal psychology, mindfulness, trauma-informed and attachment-informed perspectives, and Jungian-informed approaches.
In my work, I focus on how emotional and psychological difficulties are experienced and organised in both the mind and the body. This includes patterns of stress, grief, trauma responses, emotional overwhelm, and difficulties with regulation and connection. A central part of the therapeutic process is developing awareness of these patterns and supporting change through presence, safety, and relational attunement.
I also work with trauma-related experiences, with attention to pacing, stability, and the client’s capacity for regulation. The aim is to support integration of experience over time so that emotional and bodily responses can become more understandable and integrated.
Alongside this, I integrate dream work and inner imagery as part of exploring emotional patterns and meaning-making processes. This can support access to experiences that are not always immediately available through verbal reflection alone.
I have worked in the field of body-oriented psychotherapy for over ten years. My approach is structured and relational, with a focus on emotional regulation, integration of experience, and developing a more stable and connected sense of Self.
I work with individuals and couples.
At the heart of my work is the belief that we don’t only “talk about” our lives, we live them through the body. Our patterns, our emotions, our ways of protecting ourselves, and our longings all show up not only in thought, but in sensation, posture, breath, and relational experience. Therapy, for me, is a space where these layers can be met with attention and gradually come into contact with each other again.
I work with what is often already here but not yet fully felt: the places where we disconnect, where emotions become too much or too far away, where meaning feels lost, or where something in life is shifting and no longer fits the old way of being.
My approach is steady, relational, and grounded, while also open to deeper existential and transpersonal questions. I often work with people during periods of grief, transition, emotional overwhelm, or when they are going through experiences that feel spiritually significant, disorienting, or difficult to place in ordinary language.

We usually begin by exploring what brings you to therapy right now. There is no need to prepare anything in advance. The first sessions are about getting a sense of your situation, your inner experience, and what kind of support might be helpful.
Both. We usually begin with conversation, but attention is often brought to what is happening in the body as we talk, such as sensations, emotions, tension, movement, or absence of feeling. The work follows what becomes present in the moment.
It means we include the body as part of the therapeutic process. This can involve noticing sensations, emotional activation, patterns of regulation, and how experiences are held physically as well as psychologically.
Dreams can be explored as meaningful inner material that reflects emotional and psychological processes. In therapy, we may work with dreams to understand patterns, emotions, and symbolic themes that are active in your life.
Yes. I work with what can be described as spiritual emergence or crisis. Experiences that may feel expansive, disorienting, meaningful, or overwhelming, and which often don’t fit easily into everyday frameworks.
Both is possible. Some people come for a shorter, focused period of support, while others engage in longer-term therapeutic work.
People who are curious about themselves beyond surface-level solutions, who are open to both emotional and embodied awareness, and who are navigating meaningful transitions, internal shifts, or patterns that feel difficult to change through willpower alone.
