About me
Both personally and professionally, I feel especially drawn to humanistic approaches and exploring what makes life feel fulfilling and aligned from within. The combination of psychodynamic therapy and humanistic approaches (such as body psychotherapy, Gestalt therapy) does not only give depth in understanding oneself but also answers more existential questions of what makes one's life *actually* meaningful and how to find a sense of truth and authenticity in oneself.
For me, therapy is always rooted in what is present in the moment: finding a sense of meaning in the here and now. A holistic, embodied sense of experience is an essential part in this process. In this process, symptoms are understood as signs pointing toward underlying themes that can be understood and transformed into a more healthy, joyful and connected way of living.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
Body therapyRecommended for those who want to connect their mind and body to release stress or trauma through physical sensations and movement.
Psychedelic integration therapyRecommended for those who have had psychedelic experiences and want help understanding and integrating the insights into their everyday life for personal growth and self-discovery.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
My work is grounded in depth psychology, body-oriented psychotherapy, and mindfulness-based approaches. Depending on what is needed, I also draw on elements from other therapeutic traditions. At the heart of the process is you – your experience in the present moment and the path that emerges from it.
Existential questions or the integration of consciousness-expanding experiences, such as those arising from psychedelics or meditation, can also be a focus of therapy. Drawing on my training, studies, and personal experiences, I support clients in integrating these experiences—both potentially enriching and challenging—into their everyday lives.
Through my own extended periods of living abroad, intercultural studies and personal experience, I bring a particular sensitivity to intercultural themes and life situations. I work, among others, with people who live between different cultural contexts or who are in the process of arriving and finding a sense of belonging, such as people with a migration background or expats.
By gently exploring what is at work beneath the surface, a deeper understanding of your inner patterns can unfold – opening the possibility to step away from old paths and discover new, more authentic ways of acting and relating in the world.
Therapy is not about ready-made solutions but a process of inner growth and maturation where you can learn to meet life with rediscovered resources and authenticity.
