Gestalttherapy
...for an authentic relationship to yourself and others
To meet yourself in the present moment. In a Gestalt therapy session, I invite you to pause.
To consciously notice your thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations – just as they are – and to come into contact with them.
In a safe space, held by presence and honest dialogue, you are invited to show yourself – without having to pretend.
To be yourself. Just as you are, right now.
Through this authentic contact in the now, your true wishes for change can unfold. Old patterns, that is, unconscious strategies from the past, may surface – and new perspectives can emerge.
You gain clarity, self-trust, and the opportunity to experience yourself in a new way.
Healing begins in the moment you truly meet yourself.
Creative Writing
...to express yourself through words and discover new ways of connecting with your inner world.
Writing touches us – not because it's perfect, but because it's authentic.
Creative writing is more than the pursuit of a perfect text. It’s a living, intuitive process – a play and mirror of the inner world.
It’s not only about the what is written but about how you discover yourself through the act of writing.
In my space for creative writing, literary and expressive writing come together.
It’s a place where you can write to reveal yourself – not to please.
The focus is on expression, on being heard without judgment, and on the courage to share.
When you feel your voice, when you shape yourself into language and allow yourself to be seen, something precious arises: connection. To yourself. And to others.
Discover the power of your words – and find your voice.
Cupping
...to dissolve tension, awaken your energy flow, and deepen your connection to your body
The treatment begins with a massage. It helps to release initial tension and gives me a more precise understanding of where your muscles are tight – allowing the cupping to work in a targeted and effective way.
Next, I place the cupping glasses on selected areas of your body. The gentle suction lifts the skin, stimulating blood circulation, supporting lymphatic flow, enhancing metabolism, and helping to release deep muscular tension.
The effect reaches into the fascia and connective tissue layers, supporting the natural detoxification processes of your body and helping to harmonize your energy flow.
To round off the session, I integrate a soothing foot massage – activating your metabolism further and offering you holistic support.
Cupping works on a deep level – physically and energetically.
Acupuncture
...to balance your energies and promote the self-healing abilities of your body
Acupuncture brings your energy flow back into balance.Through the gentle insertion of needles, your life energy – known as Qi – is set into motion again. Qi flows through energy pathways called meridians. Acupuncture helps release blockages and stagnation in these meridians. At the same time, any excess energy can be released, like through a valve – allowing body and mind to find harmony, and activating your innate self-healing abilities.
In addition to classical body acupuncture, I also offer ear and facial acupuncture.
Acupuncture gently guides you back into balance – deep, subtle, and uniquely tailored to you.
conscious, nourishing and holistic
For those who already want to know more:
What does a holistic approach really mean?
My therapeutic work is grounded in a deep understanding of the interplay between body, mind, and soul.
The human being is a dynamic system that naturally strives for balance—also known as homeostasis. In this system, everything is interconnected: the activation of your nerves, the regulation of your hormones, the rhythm of your heartbeat, the tone of your muscles, and the thoughts that drift through your mind throughout the day.
Imbalances within this system can arise, for example, through stress that keeps the nervous system in a constant state of high alert, through physical injuries, or through being stuck in learned behavioral or thought patterns.
Our organism develops coping strategies to deal with these imbalances. While these may help in the short term, over time, they can lead to illness and suffering. Since our mind and body are deeply interconnected, an imbalance in one area can also cause disturbances in another. For instance, hormonal imbalances may contribute to depressive moods, or chronic emotional stress—whether at work or within the family system—might manifest as back pain or digestive issues.
I firmly believe that a complex system like our body requires a holistic approach.
The therapeutic methods I offer aim to view the body and mind as a unified whole. Whether you are in an acute or chronic state, I support you in exploring the imbalances and compensation patterns within your system. With creativity and mindfulness, we design a treatment together—this may be a blend of different therapeutic approaches or a focused process centered on just one.
I look forward to getting to know you and to creating a therapy that supports your personal path toward healing.
