Leyma Mir
Counselor
As a counselor, I seek to understand my clients’ internal experience and frame of reference through a collaborative and supportive approach. I aim to accompany my clients on their path towards self-realization. It is important to me to make each individual feel completely at ease through this journey by providing a warm, empathic, and safe space. The approach I use is mainly oriented towards cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), but I also incorporate acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) as well as mindfulness interventions.
