What my clients say

harald

I sought Idán’s counseling when I found myself in a situation that felt hopeless. Through the conversations with Idán, I was able to refocus on my needs and desires. Idán helped me identify actionable steps towards improvement and implement them. What I particularly appreciate about Idán is that, due to his personal experiences, I didn’t have to explain my queer perspectives in the counseling sessions. I also found it very helpful that it was possible to switch between my two everyday languages with Idán. With his warmth and openness, Idán creates a space that feels very safe. He shared with me many tools to navigate my life situation.

I connected with Idán online and was impressed by the depth of our conversations, even without ever having an in-person session. I have experienced Idán as a very attentive listener who has a good sense of finding the right time for questions or feedback. I’m happy for the chance and I can only recommend the sessions with him.

Noam & Milo

Our search for multi-layered discrimination-sensitive and explicitly trans* and poly-friendly relationship counseling did not turn out to be easy and we consider ourselves lucky to have found Idán. The sessions with him are comfortable and enrich us with different methods and approaches that we can take with us into everyday life. Idán offers counseling at eye level, and is professional, approachable, and kind-hearted. We are grateful for the support!

Working with Idán over the last few months has been a really insightful and empowering experience. Even though we’ve only met online, he creates a warm and inviting environment that makes it easy to reflect on complex issues while feeling safe and comfortable. I’m always impressed by how thoughtful and responsive a listener he is - giving me plenty of space to open up while following up with insightful questions, anecdotes, and methodologies that push me to gain clarity about myself. I generally leave sessions feeling uplifted and excited to continue working on myself — which is all to say that I highly recommend meeting with Idán!

The sessions with Idán helped me clear the fog surrounding my intricate and tangled thoughts.

Ingelis

Idán helped me to resolve a very emotional conflict with a dear friend and how to focus less on the rights and wrongs and more on what connects us in the first place. To be vulnerable with each other, to truly listen and move forward on the base of love and understanding. I am deeply thankful to him for guiding me to a path of renewal in a situation where my emotions clouded any positive view of the future.

The counseling with Idán impressed me in many ways. Right from the start, he made me feel seen and understood. His methods were spot on and helped me get clear on things really quickly and to take concrete steps forward. I particularly appreciated Idán’s approach, which was both personable and professional at the same time. This combination made the counseling a rewarding and effective experience for me.

The sessions with Idán helped me to broaden my perspective and to gain a deeper understanding of different social dynamics and my own desires within them. Working together has allowed me to take a step back and approach my questions with more certainty and self-confidence.
