About Me

My name is Ensad Miljković, and for more than 14 years I have accompanied people through processes of change, believing that therapy contributes most when science is combined with a genuine human relationship.

As a psychotherapist and supervisor for REBT, CBT, ACT, and CFT, I adapt each session to the needs, goals, and pace of the person in front of me. In-person sessions take place in Sarajevo (Naselje Bulevar, Stup), and I’m also available online.

International Experience

Nearly ten years of work within the United Nations system — daily psychological counseling in English with people of different cultures, religions, and life experiences around the world.

Education

Psychology studies (BA & MA) in Banja Luka, then a four-year CBT training program under the mentorship of Dr. Igor Krnetić and Dr. Zorica Marić. REBT specialization at the Albert Ellis Institute in New York and the title of Associate Fellow & Certified Supervisor (2017).

Continuous Development

Additional training at the Beck Institute (Philadelphia), Praxis (Florida), and City CBT Coaching College (London) — CBT for depression, ACT, CBT coaching, and supervisions.

Supervisions & Research

International REBT supervisor and external supervisor at CBT centers in Banja Luka and Belgrade. Author of several professional books and papers, currently completing doctoral studies in psychology.

Beyond the Therapy Room

Running, hiking, traveling, reading, and writing — physical and mental challenges that build resilience, discipline, and self-awareness, values that naturally carry into my professional work.

Approach to Work

Continuous development is not an obligation but a way of thinking — following current scientific knowledge to offer clients, trainees, and colleagues quality, ethical support.

Experiences

Psychotherapy is a space where understanding, clarity, and ease are built — here is how clients who have gone through it describe it.

"

I experienced therapy with Ensad as a space filled with empathy, understanding, patience, and humor. It brought me clarity, ease, and a pace of work that suited me.

A.M. — Bosnia and Herzegovina
"

Ensad creates a safe space for conversation, open and clear communication. I gained useful insights and concrete methods for coping with mental health challenges. I genuinely recommend him.

M.V. — Bosnia and Herzegovina
"

The sessions were relaxed, pleasant, and calming. Ensad is skilled and patient — he guided me so I could better understand what was bothering me in certain situations.

I.K. — Bosnia and Herzegovina
"

Before therapy, I doubted it could help me. Already after the first session, I felt I was talking to someone I could trust. I see clear changes in myself.

N.C. — Serbia
"

Ensad has a professional yet warm and gentle approach. The sessions are relaxed and often infused with humor, and afterward my thoughts feel lighter and clearer.

E.V. — Croatia
"

Ensad asks excellent questions and follow-ups that help reach important conclusions. Communication is natural, relaxed, and often woven with humor.

H.Q. — Austria
"

I felt like I was talking to someone who truly understood me. Ensad is warm, skilled, open, and creative, and helps you get to know yourself and your values better.

R.G. — Germany
"

The therapeutic work was a great support in difficult life situations. I experienced it as professional, kind, and calm — a safe space when I needed it most.

Supervision is a collaborative process of reflection and professional growth — here is how supervisees who have gone through it describe it.

Workshops are an opportunity for practical development and the exchange of experience — here is how they are described by participants who have taken part in them.

"

The workshop on values and goals was extremely useful because the theory was immediately linked to concrete exercises. I gained clear tools for working with clients who feel lost or unmotivated.

A.M.
"

The workshop on the first session helped me better structure the start of the therapeutic process. I gained concrete questions, guidelines, and ideas for making the first meeting clearer and safer for the client.

N.K.
"

What meant the most to me was that the workshop wasn't just a lecture, but hands-on work. Through demonstrations and examples, it was much easier to understand how to translate theory into an actual therapy session.

I.B.
"

The topic of compassion in therapeutic work was presented in a warm, clear, and applicable way. I especially benefited from understanding how to help clients develop a supportive relationship with themselves.

M.S.
"

The workshop on metaphors opened up a completely new way of thinking about therapeutic interventions for me. I came away with a large number of concrete metaphors and a clearer understanding of when to use them.

J.P.
"

I especially liked the combination of expertise, clarity, and a relaxed atmosphere. The workshop was concrete, yet deep enough to prompt reflection on my own therapeutic style.

E.H.
"

The workshop on goals helped me better distinguish surface-level goals from values-oriented work. Especially useful when working with clients who want change but don't know which direction they want to go in.

S.T.
"

I liked that every exercise had a clear purpose and an explanation of how it could be used in therapy. After the workshop, I felt I could immediately apply several new interventions.

L.K.
"

The workshop on the first session was especially important to me because it offered structure without being rigid. I gained ideas for better establishing contact and laying the foundations of the therapeutic relationship.

D.V.
"

The greatest value of the workshops is their practicality. I always come away with concrete examples, clear guidelines, and the feeling that I can immediately apply what I've learned in therapeutic practice.
