About me
I am a certified systemic individual, couples, and family therapist and currently work in two professional contexts. On the one hand, I work at a family counseling center in Berlin, where I work with children, adolescents, parents, couples, and entire families. On the other hand, I work freelance in my own practice two days a week, where I accompany individuals, couples, and families with adult children—both online and in person.
My professional background is in social work. I worked in the field of social psychiatry for many years, building up extensive expertise in dealing with crises and mental health issues.
After working in a pedagogical role, I also held management positions, leading a team and, at times, an entire department – a task that I also greatly enjoyed.
I regularly continue my education and continuously deepen my therapeutic and counseling work. Most recently, I completed an online continuing education course in hypnosystemic counseling and therapy with Gunter Schmidt and an online continuing education course in couples and sex therapy with Ulrich Clement. My work is characterized by curiosity, appreciation, and a keen interest in the individual life stories of the people who come to me.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CoachingRecommended for those who want support and motivation to achieve personal or professional goals, often with a structured, goal-oriented approach.
Family therapyRecommended for families who want to resolve conflicts, improve communication, and understand each other better within the family dynamic.
Systemic therapyRecommended for those who want to understand how their relationships and environments influence their behavior and emotions, particularly within family or organizational systems.
My therapeutic approach is systemic in focus. I work both as a therapist and as a coach, and I believe that problems, symptoms, and crises rarely arise in isolation, but rather within the context of relationships, life stories, and current life circumstances. I am therefore particularly interested in the function that certain behaviors, symptoms, or conflicts serve, and what purpose they may have served at a specific moment or stage of life. At the same time, I pay attention to where we direct our attention and what narratives emerge as a result—because what we focus on also shapes how we understand a problem and what possibilities for change become visible.
I work in a resource- and needs-oriented manner and support people in discovering their own strengths, options for action, and new perspectives. In doing so, I also take into account biographical developments, beliefs, and relationship patterns: What has developed over the course of a person’s life—and why did it make sense at a particular point in time? Some things that were helpful in the past may prove to be obstacles in today’s life. In such moments, I guide people in developing new, more appropriate ways of relating to themselves and others.
In my role, I also see myself as someone who offers hypotheses: I share observations and possible connections when I believe I’ve identified something, and present these as possibilities for consideration. At the same time, I follow my clients’ lead—because I believe that people themselves possess the greatest expertise regarding their own lives. My task is to create a space where new perspectives, courses of action, and developments can emerge.
I particularly enjoy working with:
• Women
• Couples
• Families
• Parents
• Managers
