When I enter into conversation with someone, what is central for me is what can be felt in the present moment.

In addition to listening attentively, I focus on what someone is experiencing internally and what can be sensed between the lines.

​

I strongly believe in the importance of staying present when things become difficult, so that people can experience that they are not alone. In that process, I try to create space for vulnerability, without judgment and with respect for each person’s pace.

​

My approach is gentle and patient, yet clear and steady when needed.

I warmly invite you to reconnect with your own strength and inner wisdom.

Together, we explore what feels stuck, what hurts and what is ready to move again.

Step by step, more space, meaning and connection with yourself and with life can emerge.

​

My background in the social welfare sector, along with years of practical experience, has enabled me to develop a broad and deeply lived understanding of human functioning.

As an integrative psychotherapist and trauma psychologist, I combine different therapeutic perspectives in a way that aligns with what someone needs.

You can come to me with themes such as trauma, loss in the broadest sense of the word, questions of meaning and life stages.

In moments when life feels unsteady, people often find their way to me, and together we search, step by step, for what can bring renewed calm, direction and grounding.
