To have the courage to avail support in your struggles is the first important step towards positive change. As a psychologist and trained counselor, I offer professional consultations online in German or English.
I am Psychologist (M.sc.), graduated in Social&Health Psychology Research. Since my studies I lived in the Netherlands and traveled through whole Europe living in my self-build Van, on the search for meaning. What I have experienced throughout this time was and still is until today, to allow and to appreciate the constant reshaping of my self. I involved with many different people, and I fought for my rights & my attitudes - something that made me overcome my insecurities. I learned that I can do it - all myself. And that it is not a problem to ask for support sometimes. I decided finally to integrate my personal experiences into my profession and completed a training in Individualpsychology Counseling, following the approach of Alfred Adler. His humanistic view fits my personal attitudes and my approach to psychological growth the best. Until today I am involved with the queer community and engage in various political and societal struggles, I still love traveling and try to live my life as autonomous as possible. I love dancing and I learn to play violin.
I am convinced that everybody has the answers to their questions already available, but not always one can find the direct access to it. This is where the counseling process can start. With empathy, effective conversation techniques and a little lightness I can help to reconnect and to look at yourself and your situation within a different light. I am using methods of conversational therapy and systemic approaches.
Utterly important is for me, that you yourself will find your own solutions, that can work out for you. Nobody else than yourself knows the best, what can have a lasting positive continuance.
„Life contains only one real danger: too much caution.“
This citation is from Alfred Adler, the founder of Individual Psychology, which sees the individual as unique within its context of social relationships and their environment. Life does never stop to challenge us. To be brave is improtant in my personal life but also for your process. Concretely, this means to cultivate a brave attitude towards life and to be ready to try out new paths.
