Education & career

Short profile

I am a licensed psychological psychotherapist specialising in behavioral therapy, as well as a certified schema therapist, supervisor and trainer. In my work I combine scientifically grounded psychotherapy with a clear, appreciative and practical view of how change happens.

A particular focus of my work lies in schema therapy with couples and groups. As a trainer and supervisor at the Frankfurt Schema Therapy Institute and within the ISST, I accompany therapists in training and continuing education.

In therapeutic work it is important to me to understand people not only through their symptoms, but also through their life story, relational experiences, core needs and recurring patterns.
