“And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”
Haruki Murakami

You're in the middle of a big transition — a move, a new job, a relationship shift — and it's harder than you expected

Psychological Counseling: Stress, Lifetransitions & ADHD
For over 15 years, I have been guiding individuals through life transitions, stressful periods, and personal growth. Whether dealing with performance pressure, interpersonal challenges, or navigating neurodivergence—you remain at the center as a whole person with your own unique lived experience, free from rigid diagnoses or labels.
As a university professor, I integrate evidence-based methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness with current research findings. A key specialization of my practice is ADHD in adults and students: Together, we develop practical strategies for focus, time management, and self-regulation that actively nurture your unique strengths and creativity.
I earned my academic qualifications in the United States, including a PhD in International Psychology and Master’s degrees in Clinical Social Work and Social Administration. While my US degrees are currently undergoing the Swiss recognition process, I offer psychological counseling and coaching in both English and German—flexibly in person or online.
Trust and Understanding
Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming and confusing. You might not feel like explaining your story all over again or bringing up past stress and pain.
That first step is crucial, and I meet you right where you are. You don't need a perfect plan to start. Whether you have clear goals or simply feel a vague desire for change, an initial conversation is a great place to begin.
Support and Safety
Deep inside, we often already know what the problem is, but the path toward facing it feels daunting. How do I cope with this? Can I ever trust another person again? Where do I go from here? Perhaps you want to break free from old behavioral patterns once and for all and shape your life the way you imagined it as a child.
I am here for you when you feel lost or unsure of how to navigate the next chapter of your life. I accompany you through life’s transitions—the exciting, the disappointing, and the painful ones.
This is your safe space to:
-
try out and dare new ways of thinking,
-
let your thoughts flow freely—because not everything has to make immediate rational sense,
-
envision a different future for yourself and rediscover hope.
Trust and Empathy
When a once-enriching connection turns into distance, constant conflict, or emotional withdrawal, it can feel deeply isolating.
Whether you are caught in the same recurring arguments, looking to break old patterns for a shared future, or facing the question of where to go next: together, we will find a way out of the impasse. The key lies in speaking about difficult topics honestly and empathetically—and relearning how to truly listen to one another.
Your relationship belongs to you alone. Judgment has no place in my practice: all relationship structures are warmly welcomed and respected as equals.
There is more than one way to connect.
Therapy Sessions — CHF 130/hour
These sessions are the "classic" experience. You speak, and I listen. The topics we discuss may shift based on real-life contexts, or certain issues might emerge later as you continue to explore various themes. This flexible approach allows for deeper reflection and understanding over time.
Coaching Packages
(Reconnection journey or Transformation package)
If you have a particular issue you are ready to tackle, for example, you finally want to learn how to better listen to your partner, but do not look for a whole relationship makeover, or you just want to focus on managing test anxiety, then a coaching package is an ideal choice. They differ mainly in my focus and how I engage with you. During the coaching sessions, I act more like a teacher, providing you with information and focusing on training and application, not so much on understanding your full context and background.
