I'm interested in how we lose contact with ourselves — and how we find our way back. Most of us don't lose this contact suddenly. It happens early and for good reasons: we learn to be alert, to adapt, to earn our place rather than trust it. Over time, this shapes our life — how safe we feel in relationships, whether we believe we belong, what we think we are worth, and how much we dare to trust others and ourselves.

My work is grounded in an integrative, embodiment-focused, trauma-informed and mindfulness-centered psychotherapy (Core Evolution®). Its understanding is that these early patterns are not just ideas about ourselves — they live in the body, in breath and muscle tone, in how we brace or soften, reach out or withdraw. That's why insight alone rarely changes them. In sessions, we talk, as in any therapy, and at the same time we stay in contact with what happens beneath the words. Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent more than twelve years teaching languages in high school. This shapes how I work: language taught me to listen closely, my training taught me to listen below.

I work with individuals and couples. With individuals, the themes are often anxiety, relational patterns, and questions of identity and self-worth — people who function well on the outside while feeling disconnected on the inside, alert and self-sufficient at the cost of intimacy, rest, and the ability to be truly known.

With couples, my work is informed by Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Relational Life Therapy (RLT): we look at the cycle partners get caught in, the patterns they trigger in each other, and the moments where contact breaks. Because most couples don't lack love; they lack access to each other.

I also accompany women on the path into and through motherhood — including fertility journeys. Few experiences change identity more profoundly, and few confront those of us who are used to managing life more directly with what cannot be controlled: here, the body is the place itself — where hope, waiting, and grief happen.

Many of my clients live between countries and languages, where questions of belonging and identity sharpen. I support my clients not only in easing what hurts, but in relating differently to their pain — and in rebuilding the trust that makes contact possible: with their own feelings, their needs, and the people around them.

Originally from Austria, I work in English and German — some things are better felt in the language they were formed in.
