About me

I am a counseling psychologist from Hamburg and have spent over 25 years supporting individuals (adults, adolescents and children), couples (any orientation), families (any kind) and teams. My focus is to draw on and develop their strengths to cope with life challenges, crises and complex situations. My offer includes individual and group sessions (seminar, workshop, training) on a variety of topics related to psychological and physical health, well-being and personal performance in private, eduational or work contexts. My professional training and my experience as a passionate self-employed professional, working mom of three meanwhile adult sons, wife, only child to needy parents, Christian roots and inclusive values enable me to provide sensitive and non-judgemental support to all clients. Typical topics of my clients are personal development and self-esteem issues, mindfulness based stress reduction and the establishment of healthy routines, burn-out prevention or rehabilitation, dealing with anxiety, depression, loss, death, chronic pain and severe illness. Further topics might include internal or external conflict and relationship issues between couples and within families and teams. I strongly believe in the uniqueness, beauty and ability of all individuals. An important part of my work is to help my clients gaining or restoring access to their strengths and hope and growing their abilities for coping with any given life situation.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and Commitment TherapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.
CoachingRecommended for those who want support and motivation to achieve personal or professional goals, often with a structured, goal-oriented approach.
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
My approach is rooted in the systemic perspective with a strong focus on resources and practical solutions. The goal is to support your self-empowerment and to help you finding your own way of dealing with challenges and problems. We will schedule as few sessions as absolutely necessary to enable you to proceed at your own pace and with your own abilities. Therefore we will schedule our sessions on a need-to-have basis. You will not have to book a set of sessions upfront. I include methods from modern psychology such as Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and offer Mindfulness Based Practices. Further I provide a variety of relaxation and stressmanagement techniques. Together we identify unhealthy patterns of thought and action and establish effective ways of dealing with disturbing and overwhelming emotions. In doing so we will look into biological, psychological, social and spiritual areas of your life. In these areas we will identify factors that add to your feeling exhausted, stressed, anxious and maybe disconnected from yourself. Together, we identify thought patterns, habits and possibilities that enable you to move more and more to living a healthy and fulfilled private and professional life with good self-esteem and a supportive social environment.
