Angst vor Angst und Panikattacken? Oft führt das dazu, Ängste zu vermeiden und seine eigentlichen Bedürfnisse hinten an zu stellen. Z.B. bestimmte Dinge nicht zu sagen oder tun. Dies verstärkt oft die Angst, die Dich dann abhält, authentisch zu sein und Dein Potential zu leben. Aber das muss nicht so bleiben! Im Laufe meiner 20-jährigen Praxis habe ich vielen Menschen anhand verschiedener Interventionen helfen können, mit ihren Ängsten besser umzugehen.

Das Leben kann machmal einfach schwierig sein. Du füllst Dich überschwemmt, überfördert, ängstlich, traurig, oder ärgerlich. Du magst Dich nicht. Du kommst irgendwie nicht voran im Leben. Es gibt Verhaltensmüster in Deinen Beziehungen die immer wieder auftauchen, ohne dass Du es hinbekommst, sie zu verändern. Vergangene Erfahrungen kommen zwischen Dir und Deiner Fähigkeit, mit dem heutigen Leben klar zu kommen. Deine Überlebungsstrategien bringen eher Probleme als Erleichterung, aber Du weißt nicht, wie Du damit aufzuhören sollst.

Fast alle meine deutschen Landsleute sprechen und verstehen Englisch. Dennoch ist es sehr hilfreich eine deutschsprachige Therapeutin zu haben, weil wir tiefer in Probleme eindringen, wenn wir unsere Muttersprache benutzen. Ich bin in der BRD aufgewachsen und habe auf der FU in Berlin Diplom-Psychologie studiert. Mein Schwerpunkt mit Klienten war Familien- und Kindertherapie. In den USA habe ich mich dann auf Erwachsene mit Traumata, Angst, Depression, Beziehungskonflikten und Coabhaengigkeit spezialisiert. Ausserdem unterstuetze ich Kuenstler und Entertainer, da ich selber Buchautorin bin und ueber 70 Artikel veroeffentlicht (PT).

Das Leben ist zu kurz, um nicht so glücklich, erfüllt und selbstbestimmt zu sein, wie wir es uns wünschen und führen können. Manchmal können Sie es alleine schaffen, aber manchmal möchten Sie sich an jemanden wenden können, der Ihnen einen einfühlsamen und geschützten Raum bietet, um sich mit Ihrem tiefsten, authentischsten Selbst zu verbinden. Vielleicht erleben Sie Ihre Beziehung stagnierend, emotional/physisch getrennt oder durch Verletzungen, Vertrauensbruch und Enttäuschungen belastet und suchen Klarheit, einen neuen Weg, entweder zusammen oder getrennt zu gehen.

Stressed out, overwhelmed, not able to find a routine? The covid Pandemic has led to loss of balance at work and at home. The new normal we are trying to adjust to has resulted in exhaustion for many. The dynamics between people may have changed and the relationships you have need different attention. What is next, how do I work on my goals, reflect, move forward, or accept what happened! Therapy can help you grow, get unstuck, find that perspective that may be hard to uncover on your own.

Currently accepting new couples, adolescents, families, and coparents! I work with clients who are (highly) sensitive, empathic, or intuitive. Sensitive people have a finely attuned nervous system that is a huge gift when made conscious. They experience life deeply, yet don't always feel easily understood by others. Growing up, they often experienced not fitting in, and have adapted to a largely non-sensitive world in myriad ways that didn't always serve their best interest. I support sensitive people on their path to finding their voice, experiencing genuine relationships, purposeful work, and reclaiming their space in the world.

Life can be difficult and we all find ourselves at times struggling with difficult thoughts and feelings. Past traumas or current stressors can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, or disconnected from ourselves and others. As a psychotherapist, I provide a compassionate, safe, and non-judgmental space for clients to explore with curiosity their feelings, thoughts, behaviors, and how they serve them and where they would like to bring in change.

My way of conducting therapy is relational and trauma-informed. I help individuals struggling with trauma, depression, and anxiety, and specialize in helping clients understand their patterns and break negative cycles. Toxic relationships, intergenerational trauma, enmeshment, and shame are areas of expertise. Often cycles exist due to beliefs and behaviors that are passed on from our environments and the people surrounding us—both past and present. I am very interested in who you are as an individual, but I also believe that since you do not exist in a vacuum, you cannot heal yourself in a vacuum either.

Everyone needs help at some point in their life. Counseling can help you through challenging times and be life changing. I have dedicated myself to helping people with serious life challenges by providing therapy and education to empower my clients to make sense of their feelings, not feel alone, re-frame their life narratives, develop healthy coping skills, and feel more confident. I specialize in depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, loss, health issues, relationship issues, and death & dying. Typically, my clients decide to work with me because they trust me to guide them toward a place of peace and hope.

We all need support because at times life can be difficult. It may be enough to talk with friends or other people you trust but sometimes not. Maybe you are feeling alone or not connected with yourself and people around you. Therapy can be a way to help you reconnect. I offer a genuine environment in which we look together how you can get back on track. I believe that connection is a basic human need: being connected with yourself and with the people around you. This is a core value in all of my work.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
