Counselling
Psychological counselling offers space to clarify concerns, understand connections and explore new possibilities for action.
In counselling, we can look together at what is on your mind. We can sort through thoughts, explore connections and consider what steps feel right for you.
Your present circumstances and relationships can have a place in that conversation, as can your personal history. We will work out together what matters to you.
How we begin ↗A new chapter, a period of change or a decision on your mind.
Similar situations, questions or relationship patterns you would like to understand.
Time to reflect on your wishes and find out what matters to you.

My approach
My approach is integrative and takes into account the relationships and systems in which you live. Structure and orientation matter to me, as does making space for feelings, intuition and experiences that are not yet easy to put into words.
I am interested in how inner experiences and our lives in the world around us interact. Psychodynamic ideas, my engagement with C. G. Jung and my artistic work shape my perspective.
I enjoy working with stories and narratives: how do we tell the story of our experiences, and what meaning do we give them? We can look at these narratives together and explore new perspectives. Inner images and other creative approaches can also have a place, if they feel right for you.
One image I am interested in is the inner garden: an imagined place you can create in your own way. What would you like to grow there? Where would you like more space, and where a boundary?
This image is one possible way to explore your experience. You do not need to be artistic or share a particular worldview. We can also simply talk.
Getting started
You don't need a finished plan.
We start with what brings you here.
In a free ten-minute introductory call, you can describe your concerns, ask questions and get a first impression. A good fit matters.
In the first appointment, we discuss your situation, wishes and possible goals, and agree on how we might work together.
If you would like to continue, we arrange further appointments. Together we explore your concerns, review what is helpful and agree on the pace and scope.
About me
Psychology, education and creative perspectives shape my work.
I hold a B.Sc. in psychology and an M.A. in Applied Theatre and am in the final year of my psychology master's studies. I am undertaking further training in systemic-integrative trauma therapy. My current service is psychological counselling.
At Blickpunkt, I support preschool children's language and learning through play. At AFH Familienhilfe, I support families, adults, children and young people. At CanSpeak, I work across cultures and help people use language to navigate everyday life.
During my studies I also lived and studied in Brazil and Warsaw.
