Oded Reitten, Existential and Integrative Psychotherapist and Counsellor, Supervisor
“I seek to reach towards what can never be fully understood and make space for what is already there, waiting to open.”
Being a human being is complicated, an endless shift between connecting and disconnecting, succeeding and failing, finding light and feeling overwhelmed by darkness. Starting this personal work is a conscious choice to turn deep questions and personal struggles into a conversation and see what emerges from it. But also, fundamentally, it expresses an attempt to both accept and change our lives.
My approach is intuitive, not rigidly driven by theory. I seek to reach towards what can never be fully understood and make space for what is already there, waiting to open.
My role is that of a companion to think alongside you as you face your concerns and possibilities. My aim is to listen to you and allow you to examine your experience, thoughts and feelings in a way that helps you understand yourself better, make new choices if you want to, or simply share things you feel unable to tell friends or family.
My approach is informal and conversational. I’m not here to analyse you, offer quick fixes, or tell you what to do. Instead, I’m here to help you explore your concerns in a way that feels respectful, at a pace that works for you.
