Individual therapy

Individual therapy

Individual therapy offers a safe environment to explore personal challenges and psychological concerns. The first session is an introductory / intake, in which I ask various questions about your symptoms, circumstances, lifestyle, preferences, personal situation, wishes, expectations and your request for help. This first conversation allows me to gain a comprehensive picture and understanding of what needs attention and how I can support you. I’ll also explain how I work, and together we’ll assess whether this approach suits you and if you feel comfortable and safe with me. The main focus is initially on the here and now: What requires attention right now? If necessary and desired, we’ll also explore your personal history.

You can contact me with a wide range of issues, including: anxiety and mood disorders, stress-related symptoms, depression, specific fears and phobias, difficulties with assertiveness, fear of commitment or abandonment, attachment and separation anxiety, burn-out, obsessive compulsive thoughts and / or behaviors, loneliness, eating disorders, performance anxiety, fear of failure, gender dysphoria, giftedness, high sensitivity (HSP), identity questions and issues, insecurities, heartbreak, narcissism, co-dependency, trauma bond, parentification, dysfunctional coping mechanisms, low self-esteem, emotional exhaustion, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), relationship issues (also individually), grief and loss, sleep problems, trauma, disrupted parent-child relationships, inner child healing, existential concerns and questions around the meaning and purpose of life. In addition to these issues and problems, people who don’t have a help question / request for help also come to me for inspiration and guidance in creating and manifesting the life they want to live.
