Introduction

Sometimes, life feels like a struggle—whether in your relationship, your family, or within yourself. Change begins with self-awareness. I help you gain clarity about what’s going on so you can take steps toward growth and healing.

 

With nearly twenty years of experience as a coach and trainer in the corporate world, I combine my expertise with in-depth therapeutic methods such as Gestalt Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Systemic Therapy. Additionally, I am a certified yoga teacher and integrate breathwork and body-oriented exercises into my sessions. I firmly believe that our body holds the key to change—yet we often tend to move away from it.

My specialties lie in relationship issues. I am experienced in working with blended family dynamics, ADHD, borderline personality disorder, narcissism, and trauma. I also support individuals struggling with stress, low self-esteem, burnout, or depression. My approach is open, direct, and insightful, with space for humor and lightness. I reflect, confront, and help you break through patterns.

Are you looking for guidance for yourself or your relationship? Feel free to reach out via the Send a message - button. I look forward to working together on change.

Online therapy

Online therapy via Teams offers an accessible and effective way to work on yourself, no matter where you are. During the sessions, we explore what’s going on and I use the same methods as in my practice: Gestalt Therapy, EFT, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I also incorporate body-oriented exercises online, such as breathing techniques. The sessions are personal, direct, and familiar, allowing you to work on self-awareness and change in a calm and safe space.

Specialisations and Expertises

Therapy is a process that requires time and attention.

On average, clients attend between 5 and 10 sessions. Sometimes, a short-term process is enough to gain clarity and break through patterns, while in other cases—especially with complex issues or trauma—a longer trajectory is needed. We always determine this together in consultation.
