I work with people at moments when everyday life no longer accounts for what is happening: an *anxiety* that will not pass, a recent *grief*, work that has lost its meaning. I listen to what insists, and to what has not yet found words.

## What I post

On Instagram, everything moves past quickly. Here each post sits at the centre, one at a time, with the text that came with it.

## Two paths

### Analysis

Jungian psychotherapy, weekly and with no set end. For people who arrive with anxiety, with a grief, with relationships that weigh, or with the sense that work has lost its meaning.

### Career and vocational guidance

A programme with a beginning, a middle and an end: up to twelve weekly meetings with tests, conversations and activities, to reach the profession that makes the most sense in your life right now.

When the question is what work means in your life, the path is analysis. When the question is which profession, it is career guidance.

## The symptom as a call

Some things insist: the anxiety that returns, the dream that repeats, the tiredness that rest does not touch. They are rarely just a fault to correct. They are a way the psyche has of saying something that has not yet fitted into words.

The work is to listen to that call until you understand what it is about, rather than to silence it.

## Who receives you

I am a clinical psychologist. I work with people going through anxiety, grief, career transitions or suffering in their relationships.

The pace matters as much as the content. Nothing that usually brings someone to analysis is understood in a hurry.

## How it begins

1. You write to me on WhatsApp. A short message is enough. You do not have to tell everything at once.
2. We arrange a time and a fee for a first conversation of about fifty minutes, with no commitment to continue.
3. After it, you decide. If it makes sense for us both, we set the weekly meeting.

## A short conversation is usually enough to see whether this makes sense.

The simplest way is WhatsApp. You write me a short message (you do not have to tell everything at once) and we arrange a time for a first conversation, with no commitment. From there we decide together how to continue.
