About me & my work

I started my career as a Social Worker, counselling families and individuals dealing with addiction and trauma. I completed a 3 1/2 year training as a Systemic Therapist and a 14 month training as an IFS therapist. In 2022 I started my private practice in Berlin and am very happy with the work I get to do. I`ve been working in the field of counselling and therapy for the last 13 years.

​

Born and raised in Switzerland, I`ve been living in Berlin with my family since 2014.

​

I like guiding you towards a more loving image of yourself and more self compassion. We`re all shaped by our experiences and have different strategies and patterns facing everyday challenges. It can be helpful to understand and acknowledge why we act and feel the way we do.

​

We`re also shaped by social structures, roles and expectations. As systemic therapist I see your story and your problems in the context of society. Gender roles, categories such as race and class shape our experiences and challenges and are therefore important to consider.

​

It’s important to me to tailor our work to your personal goals and preferences, helping you find your path toward more connection, ease, or whatever change you’re seeking. I’m looking forward to working with you, hearing your story, and helping you gain new insights and perspectives.

Working with the Internal Family Systems Model by Richard Schwartz (IFS) has been a gentle, empowering way to support my clients and help them develop more self-compassion. Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy has gained a lot of attention and recognition over the years for its effectiveness - studies show significant improvements in clients’ symptoms, emotional regulation, and overall functioning after undergoing IFS therapy. I find working with the IFS Model extremly helpful.

​​

My practice is open to people of all genders, sexual orientations, and cultural or religious backgrounds. I respect and value diverse lifestyles, family structures, and relationship models, and I’m here to support you in what works best and feels right for you.

​

To ensure the quality of my work, I regularly engage in supervision and intervision and keep educating myself.
