I’m a non-binary expat living in Berlin, so you don’t have to use session time to educate your counselor or feel like they don’t “get it”. I’m also trained as a dance/movement therapist and psychological counselor. I do this work because I know how lonely anxiety, dissociation, and relationship difficulties can feel. I’m here to guide you through transformation so that you can start living a life you feel embodied and empowered in.
Here we can explore what patterns keep coming up for you with curiosity, so that we can shift more towards behaviors and thoughts that align with who you want to be.
This can look like learning to set boundaries or communicate your needs. Other times it may look like identifying what you actually want in the first place.
I believe the body holds wisdom the mind can have a hard time accessing. With body oriented work we continuously come back to physical sensations, and learn to trust the body as a valid source of information.
This can look like learning how to sit with discomfort, coming back to the present when feeling disconnected or numb and experiencing the full spectrum of aliveness.
Dialectal Behavioral Therapy (DBT) gives you the opportunity to build a skills toolbox specific to your daily life. The four pillars are distress tolerance, mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness and emotional regulation.
We do this in a structured approach that focuses on holding opposite experiences that are simultaneously true (ie. I’m so mad at my partner and I love them, too).
Sessions are 50 minutes long and 85€. We can meet online or in my office at Karl-Marx-Straße 282 in Neukölln.
