Ieva Baršauskaitė
Ieva believes the answers we seek are often closer than we think. She helps you slow down and listen to your own inner voice. Often giving space to our feelings regarding a specific situation allows for new perspectives to emerge, find relief, or understand what you need.
Having lived in Lithuania, Belgium and the Netherlands, Ieva understands how it feels to live between cultures. These experiences have made her a welcoming and queer-friendly psychologist who values your unique story and background.
Ieva focuses on helping you feel seen and supported while you deal with life changes, mental health challenges, or are in search for a new perspective. Together, you will find your strengths and the practical habits you need to feel better in your daily life.

Working style
Ieva communicates in a simple and direct way. She asks questions that help you explore your emotions and find meaning in your situation. Instead of following a fixed method, she focuses on what you need most in the moment. You will work together to find your strengths and build healthy habits and routines around them. She acts as a guide, empowering you to make your own choices. Ieva always checks that you feel understood and that the support you receive fits your needs.
There is a deep wisdom within our very flesh, if we can only come to our senses and feel it. — Elizabeth A. Behnke
