Welcome to my homepage. As a clinical psychologist licensed and specialised in cognitive behavioural therapy I offer a wide range of therapeutic interventions. They are set to alleviate current suffering and improve well-being. My approach is solution-oriented and transparent. Goals are defined supportively. Measurements in order to achieve them are then discussed. Clients are encouraged to test new, more adequate behaviours during the sessions and at home to have new experiences on a cognitive, emotional and physical level. In my work, I also use mindful based techniques which deepen the awareness of the moment and acceptance and increase self-compassion.
A friendlier interaction with themselves can also be aspired. I aim to empower a client to help themselves by enhancing their own strengths and resources by means of modern, well-recognised treatment strategies.
My work focusses on the treatment of mood disorders, anxiety disorders, Borderline personality disorder, the management of life crises and daily hassles, obsessive compulsive disorders, eating disorders. Also, I offer individual coaching for people who have certain issues that do not require long-term therapy such as personality development, stress reduction or improvement of communication skills for example.
You can set up an appointment with me to discuss goals, means and duration of treatment.
