Process

How therapy begins

A clear structure from the start — so you know what to expect before you decide anything.

  1. 1

    Initial contact

    By phone, email, or contact form. I usually respond within two business days.

  2. 2

    First session

    50 minutes, free of charge. Clarifying what brings you in, getting a sense of how we work together, and whether to continue.

  3. 3

    Treatment agreement

    Frequency (typically weekly), framework, confidentiality, data protection. Written treatment agreement.

  4. 4

    Therapeutic work

    Average duration 25–60 sessions, depending on what you're working with. Regular review of progress.

Next step

Schedule a first session

The first session is free of charge and lasts 50 minutes. I usually respond to inquiries within two business days.

Areas of focus

What I work with

The list below is not exhaustive. Whether what I offer fits what you're bringing is something we'll figure out together in the first session.

Anxiety, OCD & panic

Generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety, specific phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Exposure-based approaches and cognitive restructuring show the most consistent results for this cluster of difficulties.

Trauma

Post-traumatic stress, complex and developmental trauma, attachment wounds. Schema therapy and a depth-psychology perspective complement behavioral work at levels that purely technical approaches don't always reach.

Personality & identity

Personality structure and disorders, recurring patterns in self-image, relational conflicts with deeper roots, questions of identity — including in intercultural or immigration contexts.

Couples therapy

Work with couples where one or both partners want to understand deeper relational patterns. Focus on transference and attachment dynamics — less on conflict management, more on understanding what is actually at play.

Meaning & growth

Periods of doubt and transition, questions of direction and purpose, existential concerns, professional and personal reorientation. My background in philosophy isn't decoration — it makes possible a language for things that are otherwise hard to name.

Adjustment & alienation

Life between cultures: the invisible labour of building a life in a country that isn't yours, the feeling of not quite belonging anywhere, the exhaustion of navigating daily life in a second language. Particular experience with expatriates, international professionals, and people who have lived significant parts of their lives elsewhere. Therapy in English or German.
