About me
After completing my studies in clinical psychology in Berlin, I did my doctorate in Zurich on the development of premature babies and got to know and appreciate working with families and couples in stressful situations.

Approach
In my work, I do not position myself as a judge, nor do I assume that there is a single, universal truth. I work on an equal footing with my clients, bringing my professional expertise into the process without offering predefined solutions. Over the course of our collaboration, I become an expert in your specific situation together with you. On this basis, we jointly develop meaningful perspectives and workable ways forward that are appropriate to your relationship and life context.
