About Me
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed by self-criticism, or struggling to regulate your emotions can feel isolating. I offer a safe, confidential space to gently untangle these challenges. We'll explore what keeps you feeling frustrated, helping you understand patterns and find new ways forward. My aim is to support you in building a kinder relationship with yourself. This fosters healthier connections with others, allowing you to navigate life with greater ease.
Approach
When frustration and harsh inner voices arrive, I help you notice what sparks them and slow the pace so we can try different responses together. Sessions in Lisbon or online, in English or German, tend to blend quiet reflection with practical steps—you’ll often leave with small experiments to try between meetings. We draw on grounding, dream exploration and values-based reflection to map patterns, repair relationship ruptures and steady rhythms during relocation or burnout. This steady, collaborative way of working suits people wanting more self-compassion and emotional balance.
