Sarajevo: 20.03.2025.
I was born in 1966 in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, where I completed primary and secondary education. I began my academic education at the Faculty of Political Sciences in Sarajevo, Department of Social Work, and graduated with a degree in Juvenile Delinquency. I completed my master's degree as part of the postgraduate studies implemented as a joint program of the Faculty of Political Sciences in Sarajevo, the Faculty of Philosophy in Banja Luka, and the Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Gothenburg. I completed my master's degree in the field of Needs and Motives of Professionals for Supervision in Social Work. I completed specialist education in the field of Systemic Family Therapy, then in the field of Reality Therapy and Choice Theory, and education in Trauma Pedagogy. I was employed at the Public Institution "Cantonal Center for Social Work" until 2001, since when I have been working at the Cantonal Public Institution "Family Counseling Center in Sarajevo", and for the last 11 years as the Head of the Department for Counseling and Therapeutic Work. I have been intensively engaged in psychotherapy for 24 years, both in my workplace and within various projects that treat the area of family and family relationships. In cooperation with various governmental and non-governmental organizations, I worked with 27 groups of professionals and volunteers with the aim of providing professional support and assistance, and I realized more than 700 hours of group treatment with this target group. During my professional experience, I provided support within the framework of psychotherapy treatment for more than 3000 clients with various problems. I presented papers in the field of supervision in social work, and family and family relationships, as well as the importance of psychotherapy at several conferences. I was a member of the Management Board of the KJU "Home for Social and Health Care of Persons with Disabilities and Other Persons" and a member of the Supervisory Board of the KJU "Family Counseling Center. As a long-time employee in social protection and a researcher of the needs of professionals in social protection, I consider myself a good expert in the situation in this field.
