Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Therapists in Berlin, Germany

My practice is ideal for individuals looking for a culturally sensitive therapist while navigating mild to moderate emotional challenges—such as anxiety, depression, trauma, or difficulties in relationships. I also work with people experiencing identity shifts, parenting struggles, cross-cultural adjustment, and emotion regulation issues. Depending on your needs, I offer both intensive short-term and weekly long-term therapy.

A warm welcome. I work with people from all backgrounds, across cultures and religions. The people I’ve met over the last three decades have influenced my way of working at least as much as my studies at university, in mystery schools and with alternative healing. I empower my clients to help themselves with practical wisdom for embodiment, so that transformation becomes a lasting, self-conducted process in daily life. Supporting inner stability and healthy navigation in this crazy world is as important to me as reflecting the truth of your spiritual being. I am known for good intuition, deep empathy and humour. My orientation in guiding you is through listening, listening to you and into the field of your life's situation. I will not fix you, simply because you do not need fixing. I will rather connect you with the possibilities of self-leadership and healing that are already in you. I discovered that healing follows facing and embracing what's in the depth of the inner shadow consciousness. Right from there, transformation happens from the darkness into the light, not by putting a pretend gloss over the dark spots. All the tools I use are in service of discovering, befriending and being exactly how you are. I invite you to embrace life as you are. Contact me risk free, I offer up to 25 mins free intake (video) call.

I support people in their self-esteem, in their new orientation and in their talents and happiness. I train people for a better appearance in authentic branding. I offer strong solutions for a fulfilled life.

Berlin's reputation as a hub for creativity, counterculture, and radical self-expression attracts artists, LGBTQ+ individuals, and young migrants from across Europe, generating a therapy community with particularly strong expertise in identity, queer relationships, trauma, and the psychological challenges of creative careers. The German statutory health insurance system funds a significant number of therapy sessions annually through Kassenzulassung-approved providers — though waiting times for publicly funded slots are often long and many residents supplement with private care. Berlin's large Turkish, Arabic, and Eastern European communities drive demand for culturally competent and multilingual therapists, and the city has a well-established network of English-language practitioners serving its large expat population. Berlin's complex history — encompassing division, reunification, and proximity to living memory of authoritarian rule — shapes ongoing themes of political identity, freedom, and intergenerational trauma in clinical work.
