Maybe you've experienced this...

“I'm functioning—but I hardly feel myself anymore...”

“Something in my life wants to change, and I don't know what it is yet...”

“I keep reaching the same point in my relationships...”

“An old issue is catching up with me, even though I thought I'd left it behind...”

If any of these statements sound familiar to you, you've come to the right place.

Clarificatoin + Guidance

When something is beginning to take shape and you need space to figure out what it is.

What sets me apart

Depth grounded in science

As a psychologist and psychotherapist with a Ph.D., I understand what happens in the body and nervous system when we undergo change—and when old patterns are allowed to release from the nervous system. I bring this knowledge into my work without letting it come between us.

When inner motivations come into onflict

Many crises are not deficits, but unresolved conflicts between basic needs: We want to belong and set ourselves apart at the same time, feel secure and continue to grow, be seen and remain true to ourselves. People find surprisingly creative ways to manage these tensions—every life story is also a story of their attempts to resolve them. The Zurich Model of Social Motivation helps me understand these paths with you: what they have enabled you to achieve, and what may now be seeking a new expression.

Gestalt as a Way of Being

In the spirit of Gestalt therapy, we will not simply “work through symptoms,” but rather allow ourselves to connect with what is truly happening in the moment—in a holistic, process-oriented way and within the dynamic I-Thou-field.

An initial consultation

Before we start working together, we’ll get to know each other during a 20-minute phone call.

You’ll describe your situation, and I’ll give you my honest opinion on whether and how I might be a good fit.
