About me

After my training as a therapist I followed my dream and started my private practice in Berlin in 2022. I offer psychotherapy, couples therapy and therapy for families and friends. As a trained social worker, I had been working in counselling and as a team leader for more than 10 years prior to that.

Born and raised in Switzerland, I`ve been living in Berlin since 2014.

I offer counselling for every kind of relationship - friendships included

Approach

Treatment Approaches
IFS: Internal Family SystemsRecommended for those who want to explore and heal the different parts of themselves that might feel conflicted or overwhelmed.
Sex therapyRecommended for individuals or couples who want help improving their sex life, intimacy, or overcoming sexual issues in a supportive environment.
Systemic therapyRecommended for those who want to understand how their relationships and environments influence their behavior and emotions, particularly within family or organizational systems.
In a first session, we get to know each other and see if we feel comfortable working together. I offer sessions at my practice and online.

I work according to what works for my clients. I have a variety of tools at hand. Many people find it helpful to work with IFS (internal family systems by R.Schwartz), a concept where we work with different parts of the personality. It`s powerful to develop more compassion towards all of your feelings and thoughts. It makes change possible.

It can be helpful to work with the dynamics of the family you grew up in. We look at what shaped you, what dynamics and values you want to keep in your life and what you`d rather leave behind. Working with the family of origin can be helpful for individuals, but also for couples and families.

I see your story and struggles in the context of the society we live in and you grew up in. Gender roles, race, class and other categories are important to consider when we look at what challenges you face. I see mental illness and other challenges in this context as well.

People of all backgrounds, gender identities, sexual orientations and in all kinds of relationships and families are welcome in my practice.
