His therapeutic approach is primarily psychodynamic, aiming to understand the underlying emotional conflicts and unconscious processes that are shaped by individual history and interpersonal relationship experiences. At the same time, he values an integrative and flexible approach, adapting therapeutic methods to the individual needs of each client. His work is guided by the principle that effective psychotherapy should be tailored to the unique life situation, personality, and goals of the individual.
