PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC WORK

For individuals. Couples. Parents.

Whether on your own, as a couple or as a family, every situation needs its own kind of support. In a first consultation, we explore together which form of support suits your concerns.

Individual therapy

PSYCHOANALYTIC AND
PSYCHODYNAMIC

Understanding recurring patterns and making lasting change possible.

Couples therapy & counselling

RELATIONSHIP DYNAMICS
UNDERSTOOD TOGETHER

Recognising entrenched dynamics and finding new ways of being together.

Parent-infant therapy

AROUND PREGNANCY
AND EARLY CHILDHOOD

Understanding early relationships and strengthening a sense of security.

Counselling & support

NOT EVERY QUESTION
NEEDS THERAPY

Sorting your thoughts, clarifying decisions and developing new perspectives.

My approach

Understanding together is where change begins.

Everyone brings their own story. Some experiences, feelings and relationship patterns stay with us for many years without their meaning being immediately clear. Together we create space to understand these connections and to find new ways of relating to yourself and to others.

FROM THE BLOG

I also explore these questions in my blog, where I write about what occupies me in my work. The articles are written in German.

THE PROCESS

How we begin.

Arriving at your own pace. Getting to know each other. Deciding together.

01

Getting in touch

You write to me or give me a call. Together we clarify whether a first consultation makes sense.

02

Getting to know each other

In the first consultation, we take time for your concerns and look at which kind of support suits your situation.

03

Deciding together

The first sessions are for orientation. Afterwards, we decide together on the next steps.

Gründe für eine Psychotherapie

01

Personal support

Each therapy is tailored to your situation. There is no rigid procedure, but a shared process

02

Scientifically grounded

I work psychoanalytically and psychodynamically using scientifically recognised methods. 

03

A reliable framework

Regular appointments, confidentiality and a protected space create the basis for change.

04

Private practice

For privately insured patients, Beihilfe recipients and self-payers. Under certain conditions also with statutory insurance via reimbursement (Kostenerstattung).

Do you have questions, or would you like to arrange a first consultation?

When you first get in touch, you can briefly describe your concerns. We will discuss everything else calmly. German is my primary working language. I also offer sessions in English. In our first meeting, we can find out together whether working in English feels right for you.
