Psychologist with a strength-based approach

---

Hello and welcome! I'm Adriana, a multilingual coach with over two decades of counselling, therapy and coaching expertise. I have an integrative approach to therapy. 

My career started over 25 years ago working in clinics making referrals and psychological assessments to doctors on a range of psychological issues including anxiety and depression. I have worked with clients with additional or special needs and used therapeutic approaches to resolve psychological issues.

My passion is working closely with parents, couples, and single people who are going through emotional and difficult times. Alongside this, I can conduct sessions in the following languages (Italian, Spanish, English, Czech, Slovak, and Hungarian).

Over the years, my person-centred practice has further developed using principles and evidence-based practices of positive psychology. I employ a holistic strength-based approach to cultivate optimal functioning and living well.

I graduated with a degree in Clinical Psychology in 1992 from Komensky University in Bratislava, Slovakia, with 1 year of studying in Budapest, ELTE, as part of the Erasmus programme. 

After graduating, I worked in the public sector as a clinical psychologist in the psychiatric department of a hospital in Nové Zámky, and then in a polyclinic in Bratislava. 

From 1996, I lived in Germany and worked mainly with families of foreigners. From 1997 I lived a year and a half in Budapest, where I assisted a group of psychiatrists as a clinical psychologist. 

In 1998 I moved to Prague. After a maternity leave, from 2002 I worked in a head-hunter agency as a personnel manager.

After exploring the HR sector, I developed a deep interest in positive psychology, in particular the strength-based approach, counselling, and coaching, and combining these with my experience in clinical psychology.

I have been working in my private practice for the last 10 years.

In 2026 I moved to Budapest from where I have been working online since.
