Profile
People who come to me
often feel stressed, anxious and inwardly unsure, and notice that mind and body aren't in sync. In the decisive moment they often act differently than they intended. They keep running into similar conflicts. It's hard for them to set clear boundaries and stand up for themselves. Despite great effort, they don't make the progress they want in life and work. Instead, they feel as if they're standing in front of an inner wall.
In our work together
to find your footing in the here and now. We often get lost in our own mental movie and drift away from ourselves. Through the breath we can come back into contact with the body, feel it, and through this also sense our boundaries. This opens up the possibility of getting to know your own body and yourself better — including attachment patterns, thought processes, beliefs, inner resources and more.. On this basis, clarity can emerge without staying trapped in the past. At the same time the nervous system stabilizes, which can create more inner calm, energy and capacity to act for what's ahead.
The first session
getting to know each other and figuring out together whether working together is a good fit. I look with curiosity at what brings you to me and what goals you're pursuing in coaching or therapy. From this a first orientation emerges, which forms the basis for the path we take together.
About me
I was born in Alexandria (Egypt) and have lived in Germany since my studies — together with my wife and our daughter. My professional path began in the natural sciences: I studied biology and biochemistry and then completed a doctorate in chemistry at Universität Mainz. My psychological path began in 2005 with NLP Master training. It was followed by certification as a business coach and further in-depth training, including in Somatic Experiencing® and SOMA Erbot
My journey
During my many years working as a research assistant, guest lecturer and SAP consultant on international projects, I became increasingly aware of how strongly interpersonal and psychodynamic processes shape our personal and professional lives. This growing interest led me to psychology — and ultimately to my current work as a coach and Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapie (licensed alternative practitioner for psychotherapy).
