Psychologist (M.Sc.) | Yoga & Exercise | Systemic Counselling (in training)

Psychology and movement have been the two constants in my life for many years.

I studied psychology because I’ve always been fascinated by why people think, feel, and behave the way they do. At the same time, movement has always been an important part of my life—first as a fitness instructor, later as a yoga teacher, and today through Muay Thai, kickboxing, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

Over time, I realized that these two worlds are deeply connected. We can understand many things on an intellectual level, but real change often happens when we experience them not only with our minds, but also with our bodies.

That’s why my approach combines psychological counselling with a holistic perspective on wellbeing. Depending on your needs, this may also include mindfulness, body awareness, or movement—not as techniques that are supposed to “fix” you, but as ways to reconnect with yourself.

Travelling has also shaped the way I see the world. Experiencing different cultures and ways of life has shown me how many different ways there are to live, and how strongly our sense of self is influenced by the environments we grow up in. Maybe that’s why I’m still so fascinated by questions of identity, change, and discovering who we really are.

Sports psychology

Exercise can be so much more than just training. What drives you? What slows you down? How do you find your own rhythm?

Psychological counselling

Do you dream of a different life? A different job, a relationship, a trip? A life under completely different circumstances?

Yoga and bodywork

Gentle movements, strength, stretching – and always the question: How are you feeling right now? How does this make you feel?
