About Me

Drawing on over 25 years' experience, this clinical psychologist helps individuals navigate personal challenges. Their approach integrates CBT, Schema Therapy, and practical mindfulness techniques for deeper self-understanding. Clients learn to recognise unhelpful patterns and develop new, healthier ways to respond. Sessions, offered in English or German, provide a thoughtful space. This supports those seeking clarity and lasting change, built on a dual US-German educational background.

Approach

Across training in the US and Germany, I orient sessions around clear, practical steps alongside moments of careful reflection so you can notice and shift the patterns that keep you stuck. In my Prenzlauer Berg practice and online, work is bilingual — English or German — paced to your needs, blending focused exercises, brief between-session experiments and mindfulness practices with targeted assessment when clarity is needed. Many clients find this steady, evidence-informed rhythm helpful for regaining focus, easing anxiety and building sustainable change.
