I like going the extra mile, continuously learning and growing. Being in motion mirrors my temperament. I am committed to a world in which tolerance, respect and cooperation stand above gaining power. A world which cares for the well-being of others, and in which we take responsibility for our thoughts and actions.

As a psychologist, I am focusing on our inner life: our imprints, blockages and growth potentials. As a journalist, I am open to what is happening in the world. As a senior editor and executive at Hessischer Rundfunk, I also navigated the structures of a large company and helped shape processes.

I opened my practice in 2004. As a therapist I now support couples and individuals in crises, as a coach I accompany people on professional issues and challenges, and as a moderator I mediate content between specialists and their audience.

I’ve learned to ask the right questions, to listen sensitively and attentively and to get to the heart of things.

My professional background:

  • Academic studies of Psychology (Diploma) and Journalism
  • Freelance Journalist in Costa Rica and Indonesia for GIZ (Gesellschaft für Intern. Zusammenarbeit) and various German media
  • Editor, Presenter (ZDF, BR, hr) and Executive at hr (Hessischer Rundfunk)
  • Intensive and further trainings in Gestalt Therapy (Gestaltinstitut Frankfurt), Gestalt Trauma Therapy “Love and Forgiveness” (Leonard Shaw, Seattle, USA), Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy EFT (ICEEFT, Ottawa/Canada and Frankfurt), Gestalt Systemic Management Coaching and Integral Human Resource Development (gbok)
  • Certification as Management Coach (DCV)
  • Memberships: International Centre for Excellence in Emotionally Focused Therapy (ICEEFT), EFT-Community Deutschland eV, Deutscher Coaching Verband (DCV)

After studying Psychology in Germany,  I spent several years with my family in Latin America and Asia. Upon my return, I worked for many years as a radio journalist and editorial director at Hessischer Rundfunk. Today I work independently as a therapist, moderator and coach.
