Welcome, make yourself at home!
This is not just another site about psychology and a psychologist. This is a site for people. To help people. To help you, to guide you, to improve yourself, to get in touch with your inner-self and with the traits you don’t know or you know little about. Here I present my vision based on my daily professional experiences.
