I was born in the Czech Republic and graduated from the Masaryk University Medical School in Brno. Soon after, I moved with my husband and two small children to the United States. As our family grew, I stayed at home while raising my little ones and had to put my own professional career on hold. Once my youngest daughters entered kindergarten I returned to school and completed my Master's in counseling at John F Kennedy University.

   Moving to a foreign country and restarting my life there was not easy. I recognized through my own struggles and trials how valuable, precious, beautiful, and at the same time difficult human life is. I learned that often the most difficult step for our healing is asking for help. As we have been and are hurt by past painful experiences or by painful relationships, I believe that healing comes again through relationships. Human existence is very fragile, and we need to enjoy every moment of our lives and to live according to our values.
