Nadine’s lifelong curiosity about the human mind and emotions led her to a career as a psychotherapist, where she has worked for over 20 years. Drawn to psychodynamic therapy, she explores the unconscious mind and the complexities of human relationships, helping individuals navigate personal growth and change.

Her passion for the mind-body connection deepened through yoga, leading her to study integrative body psychotherapy, which recognizes how trauma manifests in posture, breathing, and movement. She specializes in supporting individuals with trauma, anxiety, and life transitions, offering insightful guidance that fosters resilience and self-compassion.

Through a holistic approach, Nadine empowers clients to access their inner strength and wisdom, helping them move through life’s uncertainties with clarity and confidence.
