About me
Before becoming a Therapist I used to work as Marketing & Communication Professional at global leading IT & High Tech companies. Then I founded my own business in Marketing & CSR Consulting & Translation (FR/DE/EN), while I was activist for Environment & Social Causes.

During my transformation process I came through many states of development that a human being encounters. I also tried many kind of techniques (Therapies, Spirituality, Body based techniques, Arts/Painting/Drawing/Music/Theater/Pantomime/Dance etc. with Facilitators & Therapists) which made me experiencing holistic effects and helped me to get to know myself better.
Each experience I made as Individual, MarCom Professional and Therapist, benefits my Clients. In our session everything flows and is integrated smoothly.

Intuition, creativity applied to body, movement, meditation and arts are parts of my daily life.

I am curious about Social Entrepreneurship, Mushroom, Minimalistic Living & in Small Space. I am fascinated by Life and Nature.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
EMDRRecommended for those dealing with trauma who want to process painful memories in a structured way to reduce their emotional impact.
Solution-focused therapyRecommended for those who want quick, practical solutions to their problems without focusing too much time on the past.
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.
SYSTEMIC and TRAUMA-informed
Aiming at client's Growth/Empowerment/Self-determination/Autonomy. Based on principles like Circularity/ Reccurence/ Interdependence/ Reciprocity.
Reality is considered as a construction, multidimensional & relative, depending on context & people's perspective.
Our Body, Mind & Soul are intelligent. We do things for good reasons: HOW useful is a behavior (ex.: blockage/conflict)/mindset (ex.: confusion)/state (emotion) for a SYSTEM? What FOR? WHOM does it serve most? Is it STILL useful? Need a NEW way to deal with?
Becoming aware of circular conflictual relationship & communication patterns w/family & social environment is essential. Mindsets & believes shape us. Changing them changes the way we see/do things. The smallest difference matters.
We widen fields of actions by exploring possibilities & strategies. We co-find solutions by activating all Your resources (faculties, creativity, emotion, spirituality, resilience, network, strategy, self-/social & professional experiences).
Each session is unique/an experiment. Trust Your Gut. I facilitate & go the path with you.

METHODS I use among many other creative ones:
TRAUMA specific: EMDR, EFT, CIPBS, PITT/Ego state, Internal Parts, Somatic Experiencing (Body sensing and moving), focus on emotions/solutions and resources. connecting body-mind-emotions
SYSTEMIC: circular questioning, context, reframing, metaphor, narrative, externalisation, genogram, (family) constellation,
...and many more creative ways to re-connect to yoursel: acceptance, Arts (drawing/picturing, imagination, sounds, play dough...)
If necessary, we will find and develop together new techniques and methods!

I work Integrative, client-centered: breath, blink of eyes, gesture, facial, sound, movement & all other things, that no one hears or sees but feels and perceives, show who you are. I will resonate. I use Intuition, Creativity & my High Sensitivity as devices that I extend mindfully.

I like playing, improvising, experimenting with anything you share. Please join me & allow yourself to play like a Little Child again!

ATTITUDE: I am all-partisan, open & curious. You are my Inspiration. I give impulse. You know best what to do. You are the Expert, the Artist, Actress/Actor & Director. I facilitate. Your Life is in Your Hands.
