of psychological symptoms associated with urological diseases. My areas of interest also include

complaints associated with urological cancers and male fertility problems, as well as female and
male sexual dysfunctions.

in the following areas:

• Effective conflict management
During the process, we use the following tools, among others:
Identifying and re-evaluating negative thoughts

• Facilitating the everyday application of the above tools
• Identifying personal values and goals, and supporting coping with life difficulties that
hinder their realization
