About me

Ich bin Psychologe mit einem besonderen Interesse an der Verbindung von psychologischer Beratung, Verhaltenstherapie und Neuropsychologie. Mich fasziniert, wie sich Erkenntnisse aus diesen Bereichen miteinander verknüpfen lassen, um neue Zugänge in Diagnostik, Therapie und Alltagsbegleitung zu entwickeln – insbesondere dort, wo kognitive, emotionale und körperliche Prozesse eng zusammenwirken.

Mein akademischer Weg begann an der Universität Wien mit einem Fokus auf klinische Psychologie und Kognitionsforschung. Heute lebe und arbeite ich in München, wo ich mich gezielt mit der Frage beschäftige, wie wir psychologische Unterstützung neu denken und für verschiedene Kontexte zugänglich machen können – wissenschaftlich fundiert, empathisch und lebensnah.

ENGLISH I am a psychologist with a strong interest in integrating psychological counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy, and neuropsychology. I’m particularly drawn to the intersection of cognitive, emotional, and physical processes – and how combining these perspectives can open up new pathways in therapy, diagnostics, and everyday support.

My academic background is rooted in clinical psychology and cognitive science, with studies at the University of Vienna. Now based in Munich, I focus on developing accessible, evidence-based, and human-centered approaches to psychological care – with the aim of creating meaningful connections between disciplines.

Als Psychologe in Ausbildung zur Psychotherapeut (VT) habe ich wertvolle Erfahrungen in der Begleitung von Menschen mit psychosomatischen Beschwerden, seelischer Erschöpfung, Angststörungen, Depressionen, Essstörungen und Traumafolgestörungen gesammelt.

Mein therapeutischer Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Aufbau tragfähiger Beziehungen, die Raum für Entwicklung, Selbstreflexion und Heilung schaffen. Ich unterstütze Patient:innen darin, innere Muster zu erkennen und neue, konstruktive Wege im Umgang mit Belastungen zu entwickeln.

Dazu gestalte ich Angebote zu Achtsamkeit, Stressbewältigung, Selbstfürsorge und Emotionsregulation – mit dem Ziel, psychische Stabilität und Selbstwirksamkeit nachhaltig zu fördern.

Meine Arbeit ist geprägt von Empathie, Klarheit und einer ressourcenorientierten Haltung.

ENGLISH: As a psychologist in training to become a licensed cognitive behavioral therapist, I have gained valuable experience supporting individuals with psychosomatic complaints, emotional exhaustion, anxiety disorders, depression, eating disorders, and trauma-related conditions.

My therapeutic focus lies in building strong, trust-based relationships that create space for development, self-reflection, and healing. I support patients in identifying internal patterns and developing new, constructive ways of coping with stress and challenges.

To this end, I offer interventions centered on mindfulness, stress management, self-care, and emotion regulation – with the aim of fostering psychological stability and a lasting sense of self-efficacy.

My work is characterized by empathy, clarity, and a resource-oriented approach.
