I work according to the person-centered approach, which goes back to the American psychologist Carl R. Rogers. The approach is based on a humanistic view, according to which each person strives for self-actualization, which means that every person is in the constant process of becoming themselves and you yourself carry the necessary ressources for this change.
Sometimes painful experiences, fears or recurring patterns of thought may get in the way of this striving and we feel stuck. In a person-centred counselling you can learn to reassess your experiences, make sense of them, recognize your feelings, attend to them empathetically, accept yourself as a person and stand up for your needs.
In a session, I provide a warm, non-judgemental space of understanding where you can tell me how you are doing and what is bothering you. As a counsellor, I’ll try to understand your concerns logically and emotionally and formulate an individual goal together with you. Further, I will accompany and support you in finding your own resources and answers.
Person-centred counselling can help you integrate your feelings, reflect on your thought patterns and open up new perspectives for yourself. This can increase your wellbeing.
