DURATION

I will accompany you for as long as it is beneficial—whether for a few sessions or as a regular check-in.

Sessions are typically held every 1-5 weeks.

If you cannot make it to a scheduled appointment, please cancel at least 48 hours in advance so the time can be reallocated—cancellations within this timeframe are free of charge. Please understand that appointments canceled at short notice or missed appointments will be invoiced.

ONLINE SESSIONS

Consultations are also available online.

LANGUAGE OFFERED

German is my native language, and I also offer my services in English.

COST COVERAGE

I work as a licensed psychotherapist under the German Heilpraktikergesetz (HPG). For this reason, psychotherapeutic services are generally not covered by statutory health insurance in Germany.

Private health insurance plans and private supplementary insurance policies may reimburse the costs of psychotherapeutic treatment provided by a Heilpraktiker*in in part or in full, depending on the individual terms of the contract. Whether and to what extent reimbursement is possible should be clarified directly with your insurance provider in advance.

Upon request, I issue invoices in accordance with the German Fee Schedule for Heilpraktiker (Gebührenordnung für Heilpraktiker – GebüH), which can be submitted to your insurance company for reimbursement. However, reimbursement cannot be guaranteed.

ABOUT ME

Even during my school years, I knew I wanted to study psychology. Life initially led me in a different direction – into the film industry. This path allowed me to work internationally with people from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, social contexts and hierarchical structures. During this time, I learned to navigate complex dynamics, mediate conflicts and hold clarity in demanding situations. As a producer, my role was to bring together diverse perspectives and develop solutions that could hold under pressure.

Building on this experience, I co-founded and led two internationally successful companies in the advertising and film industry over a period of more than ten years.

In 2016, I became a mother. With this transition, my attention increasingly turned inward. I began to engage more deeply with my own history, inherited patterns and questions that had accompanied me since early on. This personal process brought me back to my original interest: understanding people and relationships.

I completed a four-year training in experienced orientated and emotion focussed  couple and family therapy at the German-Danish Institute for Family Therapy (DDIF). I subsequently deepened my work through advanced training in systemic therapy, which is currently in its final phase. I am also a licensed psychotherapist under the German Heilpraktikergesetz (HPG).

The experiential approach fundamentally changed my perspective. For a long time, I believed that people remained largely bound to their patterns and that fear or emotional pain were difficult to transform. Today, I know that change is possible. Through both personal experience and professional work, I have seen how mindful therapeutic processes can soften old imprints, allow separation to be integrated, and make new forms of connection possible. Above all, I have come to understand that, unlike in childhood, we have choices as adults.

In my work, I value clarity, openness and genuine respect. I offer a space free from judgment, where what is present is allowed to emerge. My aim is to provide stability, orientation and a resonant therapeutic framework in which development can unfold.

I work in my private practice in Berlin-Mitte and am also active as a family therapist at the Family Centre Weißensee.
