Hello hello,
I am Agnes and I founded Wishing Well, the Center for social-emotional Wellbeing in Berlin two years ago.
I am convinced that individuality and difference need to be encouraged. I believe that neurodiversity, bodily differences and gender diversity are natural, indispensable and valuable.
I am very passionate about supporting neurodivergent people and people affected by gendered marginalisation, rainbow-families, as well as activists (including animal and climate justice activists) who experience secondary trauma.
My therapy practice is informed by my formal training and my own lived experience as part of the communities I support - and where that ends I liaise with colleagues who share more of my clients' reality. Nothing about us, without us!
**For trans clients**
I won't need your dead name for any potential paperwork (contracts, invoices etc.).
**For neurodivergent clients (and everyone else):**
I safeguard your autonomy and self-determination and help you navigate a neurotypical world authentically and in your own individual way. I do not support rewards for adapting to neurotypical standards. Instead I help you build resilience, autonomy and self-determination through unmasking safely and on your own terms.
__________
Client feedback (reposting from text/email with their permission):
"There was never any pressure. I appreciate you moving at my pace."
"Caring and thoughtful. Our sessions really gave me the strength to continue my journey of self-knowledge and I now have great tools to navigate through my ADHD. I am very grateful our paths crossed and highly recommend them!"
"I am learning so much about myself, everything kind of makes sense now"
