About Me

Multicultural Psychotherapist – Fluent in English, French & German

 

With my French-German and American background, I am fluent in English, French, and German. This allows me to offer psychotherapy that is not only linguistically adaptable but also deeply attuned to cultural nuances. Having grown up and lived in multiple countries and later experienced life in a quadrilingual household (French, German, English, and Georgian), I have developed a profound understanding of how language, culture, and values shape personal, social, and professional identities.
