5 Questions for

1. Why do you work in psychosomatic medicine?

In addition to medical and pharmacological treatment, building relationships with patients is also a priority. I particularly enjoy helping patients develop their sense of self-efficacy.

2. What is important to you in your day-to-day work?

Time to chat with the team, whether it's about work-related matters or personal topics during breaks.

3. Do you have any special responsibilities?

In addition to my general ward duties, I also serve as a clinical instructor for trainees and am part of the biofeedback team.

4. What is your experience working with other professional groups?

I find collaboration on our ward to be particularly important, as working as part of a multidisciplinary team ensures that our patients receive the most appropriate and comprehensive treatment tailored to their needs.

5. What makes you happy in your job?

When I see that my work has helped contribute to the therapeutic process and its success, and I feel the patients' appreciation.
