my fuel

The different behaviors of people have interested me since my childhood. I am driven by a never-ending curiosity for answers as to WHY people act the way they do, situations are the way they are and things happen the way they happen.

I am particularly fascinated by the complexity of the human psyche - because nothing is ever just black or white. Curiosity has not only brought me many insights and realizations, but has also given my life a quality and depth that is unshakeable and unlosable.

I wish that for everyone. That's why I like to use my knowledge to support others in finding the quality and depth in their lives that they desire.

My focus is always on holistic solutions that start at the root and therefore have a lasting effect regardless of the situation.

What you can and cannot expect from me

If you want something you've never had before, then you have to do something you've never done before.

But that's not always as easy as it sounds. Sometimes you simply don't (yet) know what exactly you would like to be different. But you feel that a change urgently needs to happen. And then there are times when you know exactly what you want and where you want to go - but then everyday life comes along and again you wonder how you're going to manage it...

You can think of your strengths and skills as diamonds in the rough, which only acquire a beautiful sparkle through the right polish and offer great value for you as their owner. I see it as my job to guide and accompany growth and change processes. I support you in cultivating your strengths and abilities in such a way that they make you successful in your own individual way.

I value sincere and cordial encounters with people. Different life situations require different solution skills. As a companion in your process, I am an attentive listener, critical questioner, provocative companion and solution-oriented box of ideas in which you are sure to find the right skills and tools for your individual life situation.

Through my own experiences, I know what it feels like to be trapped in permanent loops. Whether professionally or privately, I have the feeling that only names and designations change, but not the people (types) and situations that I encounter again and again. I have been there and therefore know that these patterns can be broken. I cannot and will not take the responsibility and the necessary action away from you. But as soon as you are ready to take full responsibility for your failures - and in the future for your successes - then get in touch for a free initial consultation.

My Values

Interpersonal relationships and genuine encounters at eye level are important to me. This is easiest to achieve if there is a framework that we agree on from the outset. Clarity not only promotes respectful communication, but also ensures efficiency in the interaction. Here you can see what is important to me:

(Self-)Responsibility

Taking responsibility for your own thoughts, your own actions and non-actions. Understanding that other people can never be responsible or accountable for how I feel. Happiness, sadness, pain or anger. I alone am responsible for successes and defeats - for my life.

Clarity

Clearly addressing what is going on. Naming circumstances that can clear up or avoid misunderstandings. Addressing feelings and sincerely sharing thoughts with an effort to separate the facts from them. Openly communicating legal boundaries and transgressions.

Freedom

To think, speak and do what I want. Without coercion or pressure from another person. Treating other people the way I would like to be treated. Including the fact that thoughts, words and actions cause effects that can restrict or expand my freedom.

Positivity

Focus above all on what is good and successful. Always assume that your fellow human beings have good intentions. Make a sincere effort to always create win-win situations. Recognizing and appreciating the good sides of “being different”.

A holistic approach to development

Understanding that a system is more than the interaction of its individual parts and that these individual parts are dependent on their role in the whole. Thinking outside the box or out of the box. Openness to the inclusion of multiple factors such as context and perspective, body and mind, ...

Trust

An attitude of appreciation, respect and recognition with regard to the privacy of my counterpart. Being able to rely on spoken words or behaviour being kept safe.
