My Background & Motivation - What Coaching is About for Me
Since 2017, I have been accompanying people on their path to greater awareness and self-development with investigative curiosity and human depth.
​
I see my task in helping people to experience themselves and others more consciously and therefore more freely and being in relationship like that: this creates a happy, joyful way of living, the ability to face reality and act effectively. Change is possible through practice. Increasing awareness will bring you forward on the path.
​
All of this helps to lead a fulfilling, joyful life and work. Here I can support you.
Also, I can accompany you in exploring existential question of your life.

Incorporated in my work is, my coaching experience since 2017, IOCB-certified coaching training, including in psychological approaches that work with the inner world, many years of mindfulness and meditation practice that led into my training as a mindfulness teacher, as well as my own reflected life experience.
A long time ago, but a good basis: in my studies of European Ethnology, I learned to look at Western Europeans, 'my own people' so to speak, with a beginner's mind.
I approach you with respect, empathy and the conviction that you have evident, tangible wisdom within you that can guide your practical actions in everyday life.
​
My coaching approach is based on a humanistic worldview and scientific principles.
