Certified coach and change expert

My mission

Advancing self-knowledge and the resulting transformation.

​

My background in coaching psychology means that I am passionate about evidence-based practice and use current research to support and inform my work.

 

Guided by three core values - curiosity, compassion, and courage - I bring a warm interpersonal style and an inquisitive nature to my coaching approach. I am not afraid to challenge clients in order to support their growth and transformation.

When not coaching, I embrace an active lifestyle with a passion for water activities. I frequent the Eisbach Welle in Munich for my fix! Other sources of inspiration for me come from living near the mountains, music and reading when I'm not enjoying precious moments with my partner and son. Additionally, I have a keen interest in promoting health and wellbeing, focusing on the change process, conflict management, and resilience.

My approach

I adopt a transformational coaching approach.

What does this mean?


The focus in on the holistic individual with all their beliefs, values and needs. The goal is self-knowledge and therefore does not directly focus on solving a specific problem, but aims at a comprehensive change.

 

Whether I work one-on-one, with teams or with organisations, I believe that people are not problems to be fixed (they are just stuck!) and the key to sustainable change is helping them recognize patterns, assumptions and limiting beliefs, to see the choices differently and solve their own challenges.

 

My style is to lean into the tension, as your thinking partner - this is where the gold is. I observe and receive where energy exists, where it does not, and what is beneath the surface of your story. By encouraging this in a respectful way, new thoughts expand and awareness arises.

 

Together we welcome the extraordinary.
