About me
I have always been fascinated by the question of what shapes people in their relationships – with themselves, with others, privat or workwise, and with their past. Today, as a couples and family therapist and systemic counselor, I support people in breaking destructive patterns, gaining clarity, and creating new paths in their relationships.
Before finding my way into counseling and therapy, I spent many years working in the film and advertising industry. There, I learned how to navigate diverse personalities, expectations, and conflicts – an experience that enriches my work today and that I gladly incorporate into my business counceling.
With the birth of my child, I began to take a deeper look at the patterns that shape our lives. This exploration ultimately led me to therapeutic work.
My approach is rooted in experience: I believe that true change arises not just from insight, but from lived experience. I view each person as part of a larger system, and meaningful transformation requires us to explore the dynamics within and around us. A somatic perspective is an integral part of my work, helping to anchor healing not only in the mind, but also in the body.
I work with appreciation, openness, and without judgment – with the aim of fostering new connections and strengthening meaningful relationships.
My practice in Berlin-Mitte is a space for growth and exchange – whether through business coaching, couples and family therapy, or individual counseling. I am convinced that change is possible – and it begins with the first step.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
Family therapyRecommended for families who want to resolve conflicts, improve communication, and understand each other better within the family dynamic.
Integrative therapy Recommended for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
Systemic therapyRecommended for those who want to understand how their relationships and environments influence their behavior and emotions, particularly within family or organizational systems.
IDENTIFYING PATTERNS & INITIATING CHANGE
My initial focus is to guide you in developing a deeper sense of observation. Together, we work to identify and understand the patterns formed by past experiences and examine the resulting behaviors. We sort these patterns together and look at how they affect your behavior today.
QUESTIONING PERCEIVED REALITIES
Often, our “perceived reality” matches what we experienced in the past but is no longer suitable for our present life and experiences. I support you in feeling and understanding that many of the reactions that are now internalized are no longer necessary. Although they once had meaning, they often hinder us today.
CREATING NEW EXPERIENCES AND ENABLING DEVELOPMENT
Once you recognize these patterns, you can create new experiences and initiate positive development step by step. This process opens the path to a more authentic life and more sustainable relationships.
BUILDING SUSTAINABLE RELATIONSHIPS
To build sustainable relationships—whether in partnership, family, or professional life—two important prerequisites must be met:
SELF-RESPONSIBILIT AND AWARENESS
Everyone involved must become aware of their own desires, needs, and boundaries and take responsibility for their behavior. This self-reflection is the first step toward a stable and healthy relationship.
CREATING SPACES FOR SHARED DEVELOPMENT
It requires a willingness to create space for shared development and to engage with each other. Relationships are dynamic and develop in dependence on one another. Actively shaping this process requires time, patience, and mutual trust. Throughout this journey, I will support you with understanding and guidance.
BALANCING AUTONOMY & DEPENDENCE
A sustainable relationship always consists of a balance between autonomy and dependence. Just like a bird that relies on its environment—air, light, wind, and currents—to fly freely, we humans are also part of a network of relationships that shape and support us.
