✨ Find someone who shares your values and passion for life!
Stop searching for someone to complete you.
You are not half of anything.
Love isn’t about finding someone to fix your loneliness or fill the spaces you haven’t learned to sit with yet.
Completion is your responsibility.
Healing is your responsibility.
Wholeness is your responsibility.
The healthiest relationships aren’t built from emptiness —
they’re built from two whole people
choosing each other.🩷
Not leaning on one another to stay upright…
but standing strong on their own
and walking side by side.
Become whole.
Heal what hurts.
Build a life you’re proud of.
Then choose someone —
not because you need them to survive,
but because you want to grow beside them.
Wholeness first.
Partnership second.😉

✨It’s never too late to start.
True wellbeing is mental, emotional, and physical. It’s building a body that is strong, flexible, rested — with stamina and endurance for the long run. Not just to look good, but to feel capable, energized, and resilient.
Move your body. Stretch it. Strengthen it. And just as importantly — let it recover. Deep sleep is repair. Nutrition is fuel. Rest is not weakness; it’s strategy.
Your mind needs care too. Mental strength isn’t suppressing emotions — it’s understanding them, regulating them, and responding with awareness instead of reacting from old patterns.
Protect your peace. Choose relationships that are safe, supportive, and reciprocal. Your social network shapes your nervous system more than you think.
And when things feel heavy, ask for help. Psychotherapy is courage. It’s healing old wounds, breaking cycles, and building emotional resilience.
Wellbeing is built in small, consistent choices:
Hydrate. Move. Rest. Set boundaries. Have honest conversations. Let go of what drains you.
You don’t need a perfect plan. You need a starting point.
No matter your age. No matter your past.
It’s never too late to choose strength, clarity, and healthy longevity.💜

✨ Love isn’t just something we find in someone else.
It’s something we practice every day.
It’s giving — with openness and intention.
It’s receiving — without fear or guilt.
It’s allowing yourself to be seen.
Loving is risky.
It asks for vulnerability.
It asks us to soften when it would be easier to protect ourselves.
But without that risk, there is no real connection.
And most importantly, it’s learning to love yourself.
Setting boundaries.
Choosing what feels healthy.
Speaking to yourself with kindness.
When you give love, receive love, and become love —
life feels fuller.
Maybe love isn’t something we search for.
Maybe it’s something we choose.
And yes… love really might be all you need. 💜

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. If you're single, don't stress too much.💖

Every year, as February 14th approaches, the world seems to turn pink and red overnight. Store windows fill with heart-shaped chocolates. Social media overflows with carefully curated couple photos....

✨Spring is almost here. After a season of hibernation, reflection, and quiet work beneath the surface, something begins to stir.
Winter asks us to slow down, to turn inward, to listen more closely. And now, as the light slowly returns, we’re invited into a different kind of movement—not rushed, not forced, but intentional.
Reflection becomes readiness.
Rest becomes energy.
Contemplation begins to look like action.
If new projects, ideas, or longings have been forming quietly inside you, this might be the moment to let them take up space. Growth doesn’t happen all at once—it unfolds gently, petal by petal.
And sometimes, growth is easier when we don’t do it alone. Therapy can be a space to explore what’s emerging, gain clarity, and support yourself as you move into what’s next.
You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin—just a willingness to notice what wants to grow.
Spring is around the corner. And so is your next becoming. 🌷

✨Today is World Cancer Day.
And for me, it’s personal.
I’ve already lost too many people to cancer—people who should still be here, people who are deeply missed. Their absence is a reminder of how fragile life is, and how precious our time really is.🌟
This day isn’t only about awareness. It’s about action.
About choosing a healthier lifestyle where we can.
About prevention, early checks, and not brushing off the quiet signals our bodies send us when something isn’t right.
About resting when we’re exhausted, seeking help when something feels off, and valuing our health as the gift it is.
We can’t control everything—but we can listen, learn, and take care of ourselves and each other.🙏
If this message encourages even one person to pay attention to their body or make their health a priority, it matters.
Today, I remember those we’ve lost.💔
And I choose to live in a way that honors them.💜

✨January was a month of contemplation and preparation—a time to pause, reflect, and look honestly at what I want to grow and change. I took stock of my life, noticed patterns, and considered where my energy and attention need to go, laying the groundwork for meaningful steps forward.
February arrives as a month of refinement. It’s about taking those insights and turning them into action. I’ll be fine-tuning my plans — in love, work projects, healthy living, and relationships —making small adjustments that align with the life I want to build.🙏
This is the month to move from contemplation to doing, from awareness to action. I don’t need to have everything figured out; I just need to keep showing up, adjusting, and taking consistent steps. Awareness fuels intention. Intention fuels progress.
February is my reminder that change is a process, not a single moment. I’m ready to act —gently, intentionally, and with purpose. 🌟

💜

✨Januar je bil mesec premišljevanja in priprave – čas, ko sem se ustavila, razmislila in iskreno pogledala, kaj želim spodbujati in spremeniti. Preletela sem svoje življenje, analizirala vzorce in premislila, kam bom usmerjala svojo energijo in pozornost, ter kako postavila temelje za smiselne korake naprej.
Februar je mesec izpopolnjevanja. Spoznanja iz januarja bom spremenila v dejanja. Pilila bom svoje načrte – v ljubezni, delovnih projektih, zdravem življenjskem slogi in odnosih – z majhnimi prilagoditvami, ki so v skladu z življenjem, ki si ga želim.🙏
To je mesec, da se premaknem od premišljevanja k dejanjem, od zavedanja k aktivnemu ustvarjanju. Ni potrebno, da imam vse dokončno razrešeno; pomembno je, da sem prisotna, da se prilagajam in korak za korakom napredujem. Zavedanje daje namen, namen ustvarja napredek.
Februar me opominja, da je sprememba proces, ne en sam trenutek. Pripravljena sem ukrepati – nežno, namenoma in zavestno. 🌟

✨Slow down.
Breathe deeper.
Let the day melt away.
Anxiety, frustration, and insomnia are often signs of a nervous system that hasn’t felt safe enough to rest.
Yin yoga works gently with the body, inviting stillness, soft release, and space for the mind to settle. By slowing the body, we support regulation, emotional release, and mental balance.🧘🏼‍♀️
As a psychotherapist, I often suggest yin yoga as a supportive practice alongside therapy — especially for anxiety and sleep difficulties.
Softness is not weakness — it’s healing. ✨
Tonight, choose rest. 🌙🕯️

Men and therapy? Well, I see an increasing number of them knocking on my office door - which is encouraging.😀 And I can tell you that they do talk about their feelings. Sometimes they just lack the words to describe what's happening to them on the inside.

✨ Before the calendar turns, take a gentle pause.
Let the weekend slow your breath and bring you back into your body.
Notice where you are. Notice how you feel.
This moment doesn’t ask you to fix anything—
only to meet yourself with kindness.
As the month comes to an end, move through these days mindfully.
Rest where you are tired.
Be present with what is simple and real.
Speak to yourself the way you would someone you love.🙏
With the full moon arriving, allow awareness to soften what feels heavy—
releasing pressure, self-judgment, and the need to do more.
Make space for care, comfort, and compassion.💜
Choose softness. Choose presence.
Let this ending be gentle,
so the next beginning can meet you with ease. ✨🌕

✨ You don’t have to hate, label, or leave someone to find peace.
I’m a therapist, and I wrote this book for people in relationships with partners who have narcissistic traits — and who are tired of being told there’s only one ‘right’ answer.
This isn’t abuse-denial or narcissist-bashing.
It’s about understanding, boundaries, and choosing your happiness with clear eyes.
Peace doesn’t always come from leaving.
Sometimes it comes from clarity.💜
