About Me

I support people through processes of change and self-discovery

In my work, I combine systemic approaches with empathetic communication. The focus is always on the individual—their personal perspective, their resources, and their own pace of development. Counseling sessions can be conducted in German, English, Portuguese, or French.

My Approach

I view counseling as a safe space where thoughts can be expressed, feelings are taken seriously, and new perspectives can emerge.

It is important to me to treat you with respect, clarity, and attentiveness. Together, we’ll explore what’s on your mind and develop approaches that suit you and your life situation.

My work is resource-oriented and mindful. I support you in finding answers to your questions. Often, the first step is enough: giving space to your own concerns.

Approach

What I work with

Systemic

I view issues in the context of relationships, roles, patterns, and life contexts.

Appreciative

An empathetic and non-judgmental attitude forms the foundation for trust and growth.

Reflective

Writing can help organize thoughts, make inner processes visible, and gain new clarity.

“For me, counseling means creating a space where resonance, clarity, and change become possible.”
