counseling & psychotherapy in Vienna
"Feelings are much like waves.
We can´t stop them from coming but we can choose which one to surf." (J.Martensson)
As a Vienna based person-centered counselor and psychotherapist I support English speaking persons in challenging situations.
You can relate to one or more of the following challenges in your life?
Do you ...
- often feel overwhelmed by emotions like sadness, anxiety and/or anger that don’t seem to improve over time?
- find yourself in the middle or facing major life changes, such as moving, starting a new job, divorce, or the loss of a loved one?
- experience difficulties in your relationships?
- suffer from chronic stress, feel stuck or have a lack of motivation?
- want to understand yourself better?
I offer a safe space to explore your feelings and find your own path and learn to decide which waves you will take and surf.
