Your Path with Me

It is important to me to emphasize that psychotherapy is not about changing who you are or restructuring your personality. Personality is not a flaw. Our inner experience is shaped by our history, life experiences, individual vulnerabilities, and our personal system of beliefs and interpretations.

Suffering often arises when automatic thoughts, evaluations, or internal patterns are no longer helpful in certain situations.

The goal is to recognize these patterns clearly, understand them, and transform them—so that you can respond with greater flexibility, feel more stable, and act with a stronger sense of self-efficacy, without needing to become “a different person.”

I meet my patients consistently at eye level: direct, clear, and straight to the point—while remaining warm, open, and empathetic. This combination of clarity and genuine human connection is a central part of my work.

Through my international background and many years of experience in intercultural contexts, a strong cross-cultural perspective naturally informs my approach. Topics such as cultural identity, social context, and diverse family or societal influences are an integral part of my therapeutic understanding.

I am convinced that resilience can be developed. My own life path—marked by phases of challenge, reorientation, and personal growth—shapes my perspective: that we can grow, learn, and become more stable, even when life has been difficult. This resource-oriented mindset is a continuous foundation of my therapeutic work.

Therapeutic Approach

I work with an integrative approach combining cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based methods, and psychodynamically informed perspectives that consider relational patterns, internal conflicts, and unconscious dynamics.

My work integrates:

  • Modern cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

  • Mindfulness- and emotion-focused approaches

  • Psychodynamically informed process perspectives

  • Schema and interpersonal approaches

  • Resilience psychology & positive psychology

  • Transcultural psychology and identity work

This integrative approach allows for a precise connection between present challenges and the deeper patterns and experiences that shape our inner world—so that change is not only understood, but sustainably integrated.
