About me
I work as a coach and counselling psychologist in one person. I try to inspire people in finding their own dreams and fulfilling their own needs.
I completed my master's and doctoral studies at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Trnava in the field of Social Psychology and Organisational Psychology. I passed a rigorous exam at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Prešov in the field of Psychology. I also completed additional studies in law (LL.M.) and management (MBA) at Pan-European University.
I continuously supplement my education in various areas such as the attachment theory, couples and family counseling, adult education, career counseling, NLP coaching, movement and process-oriented therapy, body-focused therapy, diagnosis of movement developmental patterns, hippotherapy, Montessori pedagogy and therapeutic pedagogy, mentoring, developmental kinesiology, sports, and movement development.
For several years, I worked as a consultant in the field of human resources management and as a project and process manager in customer care and service, as well as in investment and development projects. In 2007, I founded the nonprofit organization MARTINO - Institute for Society Development, and in 2019, I established the nonprofit organization myJUMP.sk, both focusing on competence development, education, and psychological counseling. Since 2010, I have been leading my own consulting and advisory company, MMT Consulting.
In 2016, after many years, I returned to active consulting and started again professionally coaching and mentoring people who want to change their lives just like me. I work with people with work and relationship problems, overweight, and psychosomatic complications, educate and advise in the field of career and personal development. I help others transform their attitude towards themselves and enjoy life. My professional focus in the field of science and research is the issue of occupational psychology, movement, performance, relationship bonding and eating disorders.
Since 2017, I have been working as an academic teacher at universities and colleges in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. In the past, I worked with the Trnava University in Trnava and the private Hochschule Fresenius in Banská Bystrica. I currently participate in teaching at the University of Applied Psychology in Terezín and at the University of Health and Social Work in St. Elizabeth in Bratislava. In addition, I actively publish scientific studies in professional and expert journals.
In my private life, I am dedicated to sports, travelling and good food. I like history, pedagogy, psychology and hippotherapy.
