Born and raised between Germany and South America as the eldest of 3 siblings.

My training as a physiotherapist in Germany gave me the medical foundation for everything else. The previous internship in the care sector brought the realisation that I am very interested in the soul in its dwelling.

The training in paediatrics opened the doors to the children’s souls and allowed me (especially with the children in oncology) to recognise the courage that is inherent in us to keep going.

In my search for more, I encountered further body therapy knowledge, stillness and mindful touch: Shiatsu (Wilfried Rappenecker), Body Rhythm (Ray Ridolfi), Traditional Chinese Medicine (Claude Diolosa), massage, meditation, Holotropic Breathwork, Tai Chi, dance (Gabriele Roth), Tantra, ‘The Work’ (Byron Katie) and the shamanic wisdom of various cultures. The Mexican Marivi de Teresa in particular became an inexhaustible source of inspiration for the female part of my path.

Another important piece of the puzzle for my own creative and therapeutic path was Visionary Craniosacral Work ® with Hugh Milne. It showed the way to immerse oneself in the deep connection between body, mind and soul and to listen from the centre of the heart.

The desire for a systematic approach to conversational therapy to accompany processes led me to further training in systemic-integrative couple and family therapy (Prof. Dr Martin Kirschenbaum). To consciously experience our being in the dance between closeness and distance – as an individual and yet part of a whole. In addition: family constellations and supervision (László Mattyasovszky, Anne Stegemann, Guni Baxa), NLP, psychological counselling (Charlotte Bunsen) and psychogenealogy with Alejandro Jodorowsky.

I lived and worked in Hamburg for most of this time. My training meant travelling again – Spain, Argentina, USA, Italy, Switzerland and Mexico. After that I was ‘away’ from Hamburg – I lived in the Basque Country in northern Spain for 12 years. It was a time of integrating my training and developing my own style. It was there that a new form of counselling emerged – that of the tour guide. So today there is the therapeutic and the touristic way – both with all my heart.

All of this – growing up and living in different cultures and language areas, my own path of discovery and healing, the knowledge of the continuity of further development and learning until my last breath – is part of what I offer today.
