A few interesting facts about me

I love traveling, watching movies, and reading detective novels.

Working for many years in a children's rehabilitation center taught me to appreciate life’s most essential values — noticing, celebrating, and valuing even the smallest achievements.

Viktor Frankl, Carl Rogers, Carl Gustav Jung, and my colleagues in psychology — both peers who continue to learn and grow and senior colleagues who offer guidance and help me appreciate the delicate and beautiful aspects of psychotherapy.


 Viktor Frankl, Recollections: An Autobiography

"Reason... If someone asks me how I've achieved something in life, I consistently reply: 'The point is to approach any small task as thoroughly as the greatest endeavor, and the greatest endeavor with the same calm as the smallest task.'

"And feeling... Though I see myself as a rationalist, that is, a person of reason, I don’t deny the place of feeling. I’ve already made it clear that I know only a few good qualities about myself, one of which — perhaps the only one — is the ability to remember kindness and forget the bad. I encourage everyone to do the same: when something goes wrong, I kneel (only in my imagination, of course) and pray that nothing worse happens. There is a hierarchy of both the good and the bad, which is essential to keep in mind in such situations. 'Don’t think about nonsense, and take joy in every small thing.' And so, one must also see the positive side, especially helpful for those who want to master the art of living. Everyone should be grateful for any past happiness and mark 'personal celebrations.'"
