Physician & Hypnotherapist
Different people need different things. Sooner or later, all of us encounter failure - the way you handle and react to this is the one thing you can control with certainty.
I specialise in:
About me
I am fascinated by people and their illness, recovery, and healing. I'm curious about the human brain and the mind– they are not the same. I also have great interest in the origin and progression of trauma, as well as its processing and therapy.
I don't believe in concepts. Meeting a new client is entering unknown territory. Concepts are, at best, useful maps, but it's on me to be open-minded, alert, and use all my experience in the best possible way to understand your territory. I go beyond my own prior ideas to discover a person’s traps and wrong turns, to understand the individuality of their experience; to work towards a coherent reality.
Therapy is simply a term for an encounter with someone you can trust, someone who can be your sparring partner. My goal is to be constructive, to build different things for different people. We will learn how to encounter failure and see the real difference it can make.
In all of these ways I will listen to you, so we can find out something you haven't known about yourself.
I believe: \
- What you stress about is what you care about. \
- Honesty and straightforwardness require timing and goodwill. \
- Humor matters!\
- It's equally important to acknowledge our strengths as well as our weaknesses.
- You don't make people comfortable by being uncomfortable.
- Every situation in life can be improved in some way.\
- Empathy manifests when you treat others respectfully.
- Good therapists must be willing to put their ego aside.

Approach
Nerval regulation - dealing with psychosomatic symptoms, rebalancing deranged nervous systems
Have you lost track of your own life? Do you feel lost in a bustle of emotions? What questions need to be asked now? And how can the answers be handled?
Change can be quick and it can be fun. It doesn't have to be a harsh back breaking one way street.
Joining the dots, understanding coherencies:
There might be coherencies in your life that, once identified, will explain how you got to the pont your at. Together we will look at different areas of life as well as medical principles and lifestyle choices and find out about possible coherencies and correlations. You can also pick an item you´re especially interested in and always wanted to know more about it, or how this could relate to your issues. Talk to me about the following topics:
- the nervous system
- sleep, regeneration
- immune systemstem
- nutrition, micronutrients, weight
- cortisol, stress reactions of the body, inflammation
- effects of movement and sports
- belief system
- psychology of time perspectives
- the female cycle
- alcohol – stress – body – mind
- resilience
Please note: all cancellations/postponements made less than 24h before an appointment will be charged for the full amount of your session.
Experience
Several years working as an NLP* Coach/Hypnotherapist within different settings in Berlin/Bavaria. Working as a psychooncological counsellor for HEXAL. Working as a counsellor at Stop-Stalking e.V. Working with traumatised people/staff after traumatic incidents. Social engagement since 2013 in crisis intervention (crisis line, emergency care).
*What is NLP? NLP stands for Neurolinguistic Programming. Speech (linguistic) determines our thoughts (neuro) and influences neuronal brain structures. This is reflected in our communication patterns and our behaviour – towards ourselves as well as our environment. NLP deals with the way we think and communicate, and how this results in either problems (aversive beliefs) or success (what do great people do differently). Situations cause thoughts. Thoughts cause emotions. In order to feel better, we have to think better.
