He provides a safe space for the client to feel comfortable and be able to open up, without judgment. In a collaborative way, Domen helps you deconstruct unhelpful patterns and implement positive changes in your life.

He tailors his approach to the individuals needs of each client. Domen uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches to help the client improve their wellbeing and functioning. In sessions, he is empathetic and nonjudgmental, coming from a place of genuine curiosity.

To take care of his own mental health, Domen finds it important to move and exercise his body. He plays tennis, runs, and goes to the gym. Physical exercise helps him clear his thoughts and manage emotions.
