About me

I am a psychologist (M.Sc.) with several years of experience in therapy and psychological consultation in several professional contexts. In 2024 I started further education to become a psychotherapist in depth psychology. Since then I worked in psychiatry and psychosomatics with a focus on eating disorders. Due to several years of experience in social working with children and young adults, I see the importance of community work as well as individual counseling in order to give young people their space for problems, doubts and individual challenges. Therefore, I give psycho-education to students and teachers in schools to prevent mental illnesses and to improve psychological wellbeing in young adults.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Clinical psychologyRecommended for those who need help with diagnosing and treating more complex mental health issues, often involving assessments and evidence-based treatments.
CoachingRecommended for those who want support and motivation to achieve personal or professional goals, often with a structured, goal-oriented approach.
Person-centered approachRecommended for those looking for a supportive, non-judgmental space where they can lead the conversation and explore their feelings at their own pace.
My therapeutic style is an empathic, supportive approach while focusing on the needs of my clients. I only offer psychological counseling in this specific context.
