My professional path to becoming a licensed Psychological Psychotherapist (approbierter Psychologischer Psychotherapeut) with statutory health insurance accreditation (Kassenniederlassung) and a trained Gestalt therapist (Gestalttherapeut) began with studying psychology at the universities of Darmstadt, Manchester and Berlin.

Following this, I completed training in Gestalt therapy (Gestalttherapie), a psychodynamically oriented, experiential approach with a particular focus on processes of perception, relationship and contact.

Building on this, I undertook training in the guideline method of psychodynamic psychotherapy (tiefenpsychologisch fundierte Psychotherapie), which I completed with licensure as a Psychological Psychotherapist (Approbation als Psychologischer Psychotherapeut).

In my practice, I offer psychodynamic psychotherapy (tiefenpsychologisch fundierte Psychotherapie) within the framework of the statutory health insurance system (gesetzliche Krankenversicherung). The therapeutic services include both individual therapy (Einzeltherapie) and group therapy (Gruppentherapie). The work is based on a careful diagnostic assessment and is oriented towards the individual questions and treatment priorities of the patients.

Since 2025, I have also been a teaching therapist (Lehrtherapeut) for Gestalt therapy at the Institute for Gestalt Therapy and Gestalt Pedagogy (Institut für Gestalttherapie und Gestaltpädagogik, IGG) e.V., and since 2026 I have been part of the training leadership (Ausbildungsleitung) of the Teaching and Research Institute (Lehr- und Forschungsinstitut, LFI) of the German Academy for Psychoanalysis (Deutsche Akademie für Psychoanalyse, DAP) e.V., where I have also been working as a lecturer (Dozent) since 2022.
