Growing up as an asian looking kid in Germany, I've had to deal with a lot of feelings of not belonging. It took a lot of work and support to finally find my home within myself. I believe everyone has their own very unique gift to give to this world and I wish to help people in finding it and making it thrive.
I work almost exclusively with Internal Family Systems (IFS), a modern approach developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz. In IFS we assume that the human psyche is made up of many sub personalities or parts. These parts express themselves through moods, feelings, impulses, believes, addictions and other behaviors. By befriending and caring for our parts, we can gain their trust and uncover the trauma or false believes that burden them and help them transform from problems into valuable resources.
As a practitioner I like to give my clients a lot of individual space. I do not lead as much as I am a mediator between you and your parts, offering gentle guidance when needed, helping you to stay present and supporting you as go inward.
