Psychological counselling

Do you know the feeling of having a life that looks pretty good from the outside, yet somehow doesn’t feel right on the inside?

You’re functioning. Meeting expectations. Maybe you’ve even achieved many of the things you once set out to do. And yet, there’s still this feeling that something is missing. That you’re somehow living a life that doesn’t quite feel like your own.

To me, psychological counseling is about exploring together what truly feels right for you.

I support people through periods of change, uncertainty, and personal growth. It’s not about becoming perfect, but about understanding yourself better, recognizing old patterns, and making decisions that feel genuinely aligned with who you are and what matters to you.

My approach combines psychological counseling with elements of coaching and, where appropriate, body-based practices and mindfulness. Because meaningful change doesn’t happen only in the mind — it also begins with noticing and experiencing what’s happening within you.

Everyone comes with a different story. That’s why you’ll find different focus areas within my counseling work.

NEW BEGINNINGS AND CHANGE

When life changes — or you feel that something needs to change.

For people facing a new beginning or sensing that the life they’ve built no longer feels quite right.

Maybe some of these moments feel familiar:

  • You keep holding yourself back — in conversations, relationships, at work, or in sports.
  • You find yourself thinking more and more about quitting your job.
  • You wonder whether your relationship still feels right for you.
  • You dream of moving abroad or starting over somewhere new.
  • You have a feeling that there must be more to life than this.
  • You keep running into the same limits — emotionally or physically — and wonder why.

Your inner critic is loud, while another part of you wants to grow, be braver, and live more freely.

Change often begins quietly — with a sense of unease, a thought, or a longing for something more.

Sometimes it takes time for that feeling to turn into a clear direction. And sometimes, it helps not to navigate the process alone.

In my psychological counseling, I support you in exploring what you truly want and taking steps toward decisions that might still feel too big right now — leaving a job, taking a trip, changing a relationship, or starting something entirely new.

Together, we explore:

  • Which ideas about who you should be might still be shaping your life today? And what happens when you begin to discover who you are beyond those expectations?
  • How can you understand these patterns and gradually let go of the ones that no longer serve you, making room for something new?
  • What kind of life would you choose if you no longer felt the need to please everyone but yourself?
  • What might change if you began to follow your longing for greater depth, calm, and authenticity?

SELF-DISCOVERY AND FINDING YOUR DIRECTION

When you no longer want to just go through the motions, but want to figure out what truly feels right for you.

For people who are questioning which path they actually want to take – in their career, personal life, or life in general.

Maybe some of this sounds familiar:

  • You’re no longer sure what you really want.
  • You feel like everyone around you has figured out their path – except you.
  • You make decisions based mainly on what seems sensible or what others expect of you.
  • You find yourself wondering who you really are when you set other people’s expectations aside.
  • You have lots of interests and possibilities, but instead of feeling free, you feel overwhelmed.
  • You’re longing for more meaning, clarity, or direction.

Sometimes, there are no easy answers. And that uncertainty can feel unsettling. At the same time, it can also be the beginning of getting to know yourself in a new way.

In my psychological counseling, I support you in exploring what truly matters to you – independently of what others expect from you or what they believe is the right path.

Together, we explore:

  • Which values genuinely guide you?
  • Which decisions are driven by fear, and which come from your own convictions?
  • What do you need for your life to feel more like your own again?

SELF-WORTH AND SELF-LOVE

When it feels like you’re constantly fighting against yourself.

For people who often get in their own way or find themselves asking the same questions over and over again.

Maybe some of this sounds familiar:

  • Your inner critic is always there.
  • You’re afraid of not being good enough.
  • You try to please everyone and end up forgetting your own needs.
  • You find it difficult to set boundaries.
  • You often compare yourself to others.
  • You keep doubting yourself.

These patterns often don’t develop out of nowhere. They have their reasons and their own history. Together, we can work on understanding them rather than fighting against them.

In my psychological counseling, I support you in developing a kinder perspective on yourself and questioning old beliefs.

We take time to explore questions like:

  • Where do these patterns come from?
  • What role do they still play in your life today?
  • How can you learn to approach yourself with more trust and compassion?

NEURODIVERGENCE

When you realize your brain works differently – and want to learn how to work with yourself rather than against yourself.

For people with ADHD, autism, or the feeling that they’ve always experienced the world a little differently.

Maybe some of this sounds familiar:

  • You have an ADHD, giftedness, or autism diagnosis and want to learn how to navigate it better.
  • You suspect you might be neurodivergent and want to understand yourself better.
  • You often feel overwhelmed or overstimulated.
  • You feel like you constantly have to keep up or adapt to others.
  • You often feel exhausted, even when others don’t seem to notice how much you’re struggling.
  • You wonder why certain things seem so much harder for you than they do for other people.

Neurodivergence doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you. Often, it’s about understanding how your brain works and finding ways of navigating life that work for you.

In my psychological counseling, I support you in understanding yourself better, taking your own needs seriously, and developing strategies that fit your everyday life.

Together, we explore:

  • Which situations drain your energy the most?
  • What strengths and resources do you bring with you?
  • How can you stop constantly working against yourself?

RELATIONSHIPS AND ATTACHMENT PATTERNS

When relationships keep bringing you back to the same challenges.

For people who want to better understand their relationship patterns – whether in romantic relationships, friendships, or family.

Maybe some of this sounds familiar:

  • You keep finding yourself in similar relationship patterns.
  • You’re afraid of intimacy or of being abandoned.
  • You often put your own needs aside.
  • Conflicts affect you deeply.
  • You find yourself wondering why relationships can feel so exhausting.
  • You want to learn how to communicate more clearly and set healthier boundaries.

Relationships are often where our deepest patterns become visible. Understanding them can open the door to new experiences and different ways of relating to others.

In my psychological counseling, I support you in recognizing your relationship patterns and developing new ways of relating to yourself and others.

Together, we explore:

  • Which patterns keep repeating themselves?
  • What do you need to feel safe and connected?
  • How can you build relationships that feel good for you?
