Since then I have kept working with large companies to this day. That experience gives me a direct understanding of the pressure inside organisations, not just a theoretical one. I understand just as well that we are different, and that this makes us react and adapt differently to what our environment asks of us. For the past 11 years I have practised intensively as a psychotherapist. In that time I have also contributed to two projects very dear to me — the Burn the Burnout (burntheburnout.ro) and InYourMind (inyourmind.ro) platforms, built for prevention, assessment, intervention and support for the people who come to us. My approach is also rooted in personal experience — I have been through my own hard stretches in life, and I know, not only from the literature, what it means to look for balance after a period of exhaustion. I work one to one and in groups, starting from the idea that wellbeing is built; it does not simply appear. 02 · Training and certifications ## Trained in integrative psychotherapy His main specialisation is integrative psychotherapy, complemented by certifications in several directions — clinical and organisational. - ### Integrative psychotherapy The core specialisation — combines several therapeutic frameworks according to what the client needs. - ### Transactional Analysis For understanding relational patterns and the roles we play without realising it. - ### Gestalt Working with present experience — contact, awareness, responsibility. - ### NLP Neuro-linguistic programming, as a complementary intervention tool. - ### Coaching Coach training, used both one to one and in programmes for companies. - ### Identity Compass A personality assessment tool, used in coaching and in corporate programmes.
