About me
After finishing my master in psychology in 2016, I started to attend psychotherapy-school in Berlin, where I am currently getting trained in CBT. In addition I joined a post-gradual master program at University of Bern in Switzerland. The post-gradual master is focusing on a "general therapy approach", including everything that has proven itself helpful within the different therapy approaches (e.g. activating resources, therapeutic relationship, motivational clearing,..).
During my training to be a psychological psychotherapist I worked half a year at Charité Berlin specializing on affective disorders (anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder,..) as well as one year in an anthroposophic clinic specializing in psychosomatic-disorders. 2021 I received the license as a Psychological Psychotherapist. Since then I offer coaching, counselling and therapy on private pay as well as through the reimbursement procedure.
In my work I create a room for a trustful and authentic relationship that allows to share feelings, to express needs, to activate resources, to strenghten the relationship with yourself and to find new solutions. I offer a wide range of techniques from CBT to emotion-focused techniques to schema-therapy.

Approach
Working as a therapist and coach I noticed that when we get stuck in an unpleasant situation or develop symptoms (e.g. reduced sleep quality, depressed mood, low self-esteem..), it´s always a good idea to look closer at the current strategies we are using as well as the feelings (e.g. anxiety, sadness,..) and assumptions (e.g. believes about us or the world) behind. Most strategies, that we consciously or subconsciously use, are a result of early experiences in life. My work focusses on getting to know yourself better, to strengthen the relationship with yourself and therefore creating more freedom to choose more helpful and self-accepting strategies when facing challenges in life. This can change the way we feel, think and behave with ourselves and others.
