Relaxation & healing
Shiatsu & body psychotherapy
My background
Years ago when I started learning Taichi, Qigong & when I came into contact with Shiatsu, I felt for the first time on my own body that, beyond our Western worldview, there are healing systems that are thousands of years old for which energetic self-experience and treatment are completely natural.
Since then, I have dedicated myself to holistic body therapy and am researching ways in which I can “inhabit” my body in a more lively and empathetic way.
For me, our search for honest connection with our feelings and needs, and accepting ourselves as we are right now is the basis of every healing process.
Heilen ist nicht dasselbe wie der Versuch, Leiden loszuwerden. Das Leiden verschwindet auf natürliche Weise, wenn man unterdrückte Emotionen bewusst macht und dem Körper erlaubt, sie zu verarbeiten.
My therapeutic approach
In psychosomatic treatments I combine my 20 years of experience in body therapy with process-oriented psychotherapy & Trauma healing processes. I provide support empathetically and at eye level with a focus on authentic conflict resolution. You are welcome as you are and find clarity and relief for your body & Soul.
Fragen beantworte ich gern in einem telefonischen Beratungsgespräch. All therapies are also available in English.
Vita
After my nursing training in Berlin, I moved to Scotland for many years, where I discovered my greatest passion, body therapy, with 4 years of Shiatsu training.
On my therapeutic path, many training courses supplemented my understanding of “body therapy” such as trigger point massage, hot stone massage, Thai & Lomi Lomi massage, foot reflexology, fascia release, lymphatic drainage, Kundalini yoga, Feldenkrais & Somatic Embodiment Training, Contact Improvisation Dance.
A serious health turning point in my life took me to London in 2011, where I completed a 2-year master's degree in NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming), EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) & Hypnotherapy, at the Phil Parker Academy, with a focus on stress & Completed trauma therapy.
When I arrived back in Germany, I completed my degree as a state-recognized alternative practitioner for psychotherapy in Berlin in 2018.
Since 2021, I have been treating with a combination of Shiatsu and body psychotherapy to help clients perceive inner resistance, conflicts and repressed feelings and to resolve them in an authentic and empathetic physical process.
