About me
I am a Specialist in Psychiatry and Psychotherapy and a certified Hypnotherapist. I have more than a decade of experience as a clinician and specialize in treating patients with anxiety, OCD and depression but treat all forms of mental health issues. Next to my clinical work, I am investigating the effect of music-based therapies on cognitive function and depressive symptoms.
I work at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE) as a consultant specialist on anxiety disorders and OCD unit. Next to various teaching appointments, I am offering psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy and hypnotherapy at my private practice - MindBrain Clinic. I am also the co-founder of the MindBrain Forum (www.mindbrainforum.com), a blog dedicated to raising awareness on mental health issues.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
HypnotherapyRecommended for those who want to use relaxation and hypnosis techniques to explore deeper parts of their mind or break unhealthy habits.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
At the beginning of every therapy, the focus is mutual trust and respect. This foundation allows for a trusting and sustainable relationship crucial for the success of the treatment. When the unspoken can be uttered, the forgotten remembered, and new insights gained, this self-knowledge (i.e., a better understanding of one's intentions, thoughts, emotions, and behaviours) allows for cognitive and behavioural change and, as a result, recovery.
As this is an arduous path, my role is to encourage and support you on this journey. For this purpose, I use different interventional approaches, from psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and hypnotherapy.
I am thrilled to hold our English, French, Faris and German sessions and look forward to meeting you. Just contact me.
