I am a psychologist with international experience. I grew up in Austria, went to highschool in the United States and studied psychology in France. At the University in Reims I discovered the field of clinical intercultural psychology that has not stopped fascinating me.

In my clinical practice I take care of children (from 2 years of age), adolescents, adults and couples. I strive for a holistic and human approach. For problem resolution I prefer to make an individual plan by using integrative psychotherapy. Besides classical therapeutic approaches I also refer to creative methods such as arttherapy, working with dreams and I am further persuing training in hypnotherapy to foster relaxation and accessing unconscious ressources.
I like to work with people that want to work on themselves and grow.
