EMOTION-IMAGE THERAPY
Find safe space
for self exploration
Emotion-Image Therapy (EIT) is a new method in psychotherapy which addresses chronic negative emotional states and helps solve psychological and psychosomatic issues. The therapy method is based on a principle that any emotional state can be expressed through visual, audial or kinaesthetic images produced in our minds. Thus, a psychodynamic conflict can be resolved through the interaction with those images and their transformation.

How I work
During the therapy session, I first create a space of safety, acceptance and trust in which you can explore your negative emotional states. Then I gently guide you through a process of engaging with your inner world, step by step. Together we find the cause of your inner conflict for resolution and relief.
My approach is respectful, professional and non-judgemental. I attend regular supervision sessions with senior psychologists to ensure I support my clients in the best possible way.
Principles that inform my therapy work:
Authentic inner change through a conscious choice
Acceptance of the outer world for what it is
Compassion instead of self-criticism
Curiosity instead of fear
Freedom instead of control
Relaxation and playfulness instead of tension
Self-sufficiency instead of co-dependency
Permission to be happy instead of self-pity
Life happens for you, not to you
"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."
Rumi
