More about Luka
- 12 years' experience
- Female
As a psychosocial counsellor, I offer support with a wide range of personal and emotional concerns. With over 12 years of experience in the field — including as a family therapist in child and adolescent psychiatry — I support children, young people, parents and adults. I’m also a certified mindfulness trainer and autismcoach. My areas of expertise include family issues, parent-child interaction difficulties, stress, autism, ADHD, trauma, attachment problems and anxiety.
I work from a warm, non-judgemental and compassionate attitude, while also asking the critical questions needed to help you move forward. You remain in charge — see me as someone who walks alongside you for a while, until you feel ready to continue on your own. Respect and trust are core values in my work. You are welcome exactly as you are, and feeling safe in our sessions is essential.
A holistic approach
In our sessions, I take a holistic view — meaning we look beyond the surface of the main concern or question. Often, a specific issue is connected to a broader context. By exploring the bigger picture together, we can identify where change is possible and where you have influence, so you can begin to move forward.
Together, we’ll explore what approach suits you best. Some people benefit most from a body-oriented approach, while others feel more supported by cognitive work — or a combination of both. Your needs, wishes and questions will always guide the process.
I look forward to meeting you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
