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).

Während ich die Entwicklungen auf dem Gebiet der Neurowissenschaften kuratiere, verwende ich verschiedene Modalitäten, um Menschen dabei zu unterstützen, sich wieder mit sich und anderen zu verbinden. Als zertifizierter Imago-Beziehungstherapeut habe ich mich darauf spezialisiert, Paaren dabei zu helfen, Sicherheit wieder aufzubauen, die Kommunikation zu verbessern und Spannungen abzubauen. Ich verwende auch Techniken aus der PACT-Therapie: Ein psycho-biologischer Ansatz für die Paartherapie, der Paare zu einer sichereren funktionierenden Beziehung führt.

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.

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.

I am all about developing peace and joy in life, but that can seem beyond reach when you're going through difficult times. Current stressors could affect your sense of wellbeing. If you are dealing with depression, anxiety, addiction, or some other discomfort, there might be underlying issues and remote memories, triggering you. Your relationship or career could be affected and you might be ready to do something about it. If you need to move on from problematic childhood events or heal unprocessed trauma, psychotherapy can offer relief and a (much) better life quality.

It may be hard to see but there is a life in which you wake up feeling good and excited about what you can do compared to dreading what you have to do. Working through these challenging times can be the key to creating the life you want. I'm here to help you find calm, focus, and control in your life again.

Do you wake up feeling depressed dreading to get through another day?

Have you lost touch with the aspirations and dreams that used to motivate and inspire you? Are your relationships troubled? I can help! Seeking therapy takes courage and the prospect of talking to a stranger can be intimidating. I relate to the discomfort you may experience and provide a confidential, non-judgmental, supportive space to work with you.
