Individual, relationship and sex therapy in Hamburg

Approach/Philosophy

As an individual, couples and sex therapist and counsellor, I meet people in an appreciative and non-judgmental way. My practice is a safe space for people of all colours, regardless of social background, sexual or gender identity. The goal of my work is the well-being and satisfaction of my clients on a psychological, physical and interpersonal level.

In my practice I work acceptingly with what is there. The current situation is our starting point. If necessary, we look back; however, it is more important for me to look forward: What should be achieved? What is a desirable goal? How do we get there and what is holding you back? What values are important to you? Together with my clients, I create a space for new developments in therapy based on the client’s own resources.

Education

I have a two-year training as a systemic counsellor, as well as a couple therapist/sexual therapist. My therapeutic approach is therefore systemic. However, I also like to combine this with methods of the so-called third wave in behavioural therapy (ACT, CFT, EFT) and internal family systems therapy (IFS), in which I am trained. A special focus of my work is affirmative individual, couple and sex therapy on topics such as non-traditional forms of relationships (e.g. polyamory, patchwork families), BDSM and kink. This also includes work on queer issues with people from the LGBTQIA* spectrum. Regular further training, collegial exchange and supervision are indispensable building blocks of good quality therapeutic work for me.
