Toxic work environment
draining your confidence.
"I liked the combination of psychology and a business approach."
"In just over half a year, the results were very quickly apparent."
"This set of sessions is a very thoughtful investment in your future."
Does this sound familiar?
You feel stuck, frustrated, ready for the next level... but something's missing?
Career path confusion
Is it too late to change?
Drowning in ideas
without clear action plans.
Major life transition
leaving you purposeless.
Juggling everything
Home, parenthood, job.
Paralyzed by possibilities
and can't take the first step.
You keep thinking "There has to be a better way." Good news: there is.
What is psychological business counseling?
It sits between psychology and business. We look at how you work, decide and react on the job, because that's where your patterns show up most clearly. Then we turn what we find into moves you can actually make: a boundary, a decision, a plan.
"Through psychological business counseling training, I discovered something fascinating: it's easier to explore ourselves through how we work than by diving into personal history. When I started observing my patterns at work, everything clicked into place."

Hi, I'm Mateja!
Let's be honest: I'm not here to pretend I have it all figured out. I've been through my own career pivots, workplace drama, and heavy identity crises. The difference is I've learned how to navigate these challenges effectively. These real-life experiences, paired with my professional background, gave me the tools to meet you exactly where you are.
I have an honest and direct style of counseling that (I've been told) my clients really appreciate. There's enough fluff and noise in the world; the last thing you need is BS from your counselor.

In my clients' words
"Speaking solely of return on investment: considering how confident you are going to come out of this counseling and how much more agile it lets you become in your immediate work environment: there is such an amount of extra money you are probably going to generate for yourself throughout your life because of that. This set of sessions is a very thoughtful investment in your future."
"I like the diverse approaches, from drawing, conversation, work exercises, and writing, which are adapted to the situation."
"The continuity was useful to me, that we were able to monitor the changes and processes that were taking place within me and my work environment over several months. And in general: compared to traditional therapy, PPS offers a very proactive approach to resolving blockages and situations in the work environment, which then resonate into other areas of life."
"In just over half a year, the results were very quickly apparent. We dealt with acute situations and during that time I received really good support."
"I liked the combination of psychology and a business approach. And I thought it was a very good way to transfer insights from the business world to the private sphere."
"I felt safe and confident. The space was pleasant and bright. The online sessions were also very pleasant, and I felt safe."
Straight answers
What is psychological business counseling?
A mix of psychology and business thinking. We use your work life as the way in: how you decide, react and get stuck on the job. Then we build the confidence, boundaries and plans to change it.
How is it different from therapy or coaching?
Clients describe it as more proactive than traditional therapy and more personal than business coaching. We work on concrete situations at work, and the changes tend to carry into the rest of life.
Is it online or in person?
Both. Sessions run online or in person. The discovery call is always online.
How long does it take?
It depends on where you're starting. Some clients come for one acute situation, others stay for several months to track deeper change. A typical set is 10 sessions.
What happens on the discovery call?
We have an online coffee, you tell me what's going on, and we see whether and how I can help. No preparation needed and no obligation to continue.

Your inner critic is not your strategist
