About me

I was born and raised in Germany as the child of political refugees. Growing up between cultures shaped me early on – I learned to move between different worlds, and over time, I came to appreciate the beauty and strength that come from that in-between space. That experience sparked a lifelong curiosity about people – their stories, their resilience, their contradictions. It’s taken me on many different paths: professional detours, time living abroad, meaningful connections, and a few painful disappointments. All of it taught me that the most important journey is the one we take inward. Along the way, I’ve been fortunate to be supported by people who saw me, who believed in me, and helped me stay grounded. Today, I offer that same presence to others. With intuition, clarity, and deep respect, I support people as they navigate their own paths – helping them reconnect with what feels real, honest, and true.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Nonviolent CommunicationRecommended for those who want to improve communication and to regulate conflicts by learning how to express their feelings and needs and listening to other’s.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Somatic ExperiencingRecommended for those who want to use the mind-body connection to address the effects of trauma and restore natural regulation of the nervous system.
Do you often feel torn or deeply burdened by inner conflicts? Do you notice inner resistance that is difficult to put into words? My work is shaped by an authentic, relationship-oriented approach. I work with a psychodynamically inspired perspective, viewing inner conflicts and challenging experiences as meaningful signals that can offer insight into your current situation. Our work together does not focus solely on defining problems, but rather on maintaining and strengthening your ability to act. I provide a clear and supportive structure that helps you approach your challenges in a solution-oriented way, while offering guidance throughout the process.
