about me

I have been married for 19 years. Together with my husband, we have three amazing children, whose mother I love being immensely. Recently, our family has also enjoyed a beautiful addition, a Coton de tulear puppy. Others describe me as calm, joyful, sensitive, empathetic and a good listener. I also love humor and a good laugh.

During my free time, I like to take walks in the nature, listening to music, being with my friends, sharing moments with family and developing myself. I also love everything beautiful!

While practicing therapy professionally, I also do it with my whole heart. Seeing people strengthened and finding their full potential in life brings me fulfillment.

Having lived in several countries and continents, my identity is fairly international and multicultural. Treating each individual from all backgrounds and worldviews with respect, is important to me.

Beyond therapy,

my work experience includes

  • Family support and child-protection services
  • International work assignments (relief, crisis-work, teaching, mentoring)
  • Drug-abuse and mental health rehabilitation 
  • Refugee ministry
  • Care worker in Finland and Canada
