I first came to Germany as a teenager, navigating the complexities of a new culture and language at just fourteen. Over the years, I’ve lived on both sides of the Atlantic, moving back and forth between the U.S. and Germany several times. Each transition was both exciting and disorienting, teaching me firsthand how disconnection, cultural differences, and the longing for belonging can shape one’s inner world.

These personal experiences, combined with my academic background in literature and philosophy, and later training in psychotherapy, deepened my interest in how people adapt to change. I saw clearly how expats and internationals often struggle in silence. Missing friends and family, questioning their identity, and sometimes feeling like outsiders in both cultures. My own journey of adjustment and healing inspired me to create a supportive space where others can process these challenges openly.

Today, I bring this perspective into my work as a therapist. I specialize in helping expats find their footing, whether they’re building new relationships, rediscovering a sense of home, or navigating stress, loss, and self-doubt far from familiar support systems. My goal is to walk alongside my clients as they reconnect with their resilience, inner resources, and sense of belonging.
