I support you and your team in gaining clarity and new perspectives. Together we will get to the bottom of things and create new room for positive change for you personally and the people around you.
Life is not what it is supposed to be. It’s what it is. The way you cope with it is what makes all the difference. “

Personal coaching
In coaching with me, you gain distance from your current circumstances and understand what is happening inside and around you. You get to know your inner saboteurs, understand how you hold yourself back, and how you can tap into your own resourcefulness to move towards greater freedom and success. And you discover further perspectives from which new possibilities for action emerge. What do you really want and need? Be curious about what you will discover for yourself.
Themen
- Gaining orientation for a new stage in life
- Getting back into the driver’s seat of your life
- Gaining confidence in decision-making in uncertain situations
Business Coaching:
As a professional, you are challenged every day, exposed to sometimes conflicting demands from different sides, and all this in a corporate environment that is constantly changing – how can you successfully strive to be your best in this complexity, and at the same time remain healthy and positive as a person?
Topics
- Building mental resilience at work (stress management, life balance)
- Shaping your professional role as an expert or people manager
- Developing your personal leadership style
- Recognizing your potential and actively developing your career
- Managing conflict situations with superiors, colleagues or employees
Mediation
Wherever people live and work together, conflicts are unavoidable. If they are not resolved, they put a strain on relationships, lead to a breakdown of collaboration and conversation and eventually cost a lot of money and nerves. If you are stuck in a situation where
- it has become difficult to address things openly
- different perspectives are irreconcilably opposed to each other
- things have been simmering under the surface for some time and tensions have become unbearable
- productive collaboration is difficult
external support can often get things moving again.
As a certified mediator, I create a safe space for discussing difficult issues and meeting as equals. The aim is mutual understanding and clarity of the situation, without winners and losers. I will guide you through the process with sensitivity so that everyone involved can express what is important to them in a respectful way. Handled well, the conflict evolves into clarity and new energy for moving forward. As a result, you as a group decide how to move on and agree on solutions that can reset your relationship in a constructive way.
Let us talk if you do no longer want to live with a stressful conflict situation but rather face it. I’ll help you work through it.
There is a place beyond right and wrong, let us meet there “
Rumi, Persian poet
Topics
- Conflicts between managers and employees, business partners and teams
- Support with difficult conversations between siblings, neighbours or colleagues
- Clarification of entrenched situations during separations or in communities of heirs
Team development
Reorganization, accelerated demands from day-to-day business, change processes or conflicts: All of these circumstances can be triggers for readjusting the team’s direction, rethinking cooperation within the team and with others in the organization, and for realigning existing processes.
Topics
- Defining a common path forward with shared vision, strategy, goals and roles
- Finding new ways of collaboration within the team or with other partners
- Using conflicts in the team constructively
A team check-in not only makes sense when things get difficult or when a change is initiated from outside. Really good teams regularly look at how they work together to proactively reflect on their collaboration before tensions and differences of opinion become unproductive. Together, you and your employees develop the ability and willingness to
- listen to each other and speak your mind, even if it is uncomfortable
- give each other open feedback and accept feedback from others
- coordinate, decide and support decisions within the team
- deal with tensions, pressure and different points of view
I support you in creating suitable opportunities for your team to talk about things that are difficult to address during a normal working day. Fixed routines make it easier for you and your employees to talk about what is really happening, what is felt but not spoken about and what stands in the way of even better cooperation. Let’s talk about how you can preventively maintain your team’s performance and increase the ability to self-manage in collaboration.
About me
For more than 25 years, I have been supporting people on their professional and personal development journeys as a coach, team developer and facilitator. I have learned to appreciate how differently people experience the world and how this shapes their behaviour – every person is unique. My work is always about understanding the individual inner dynamics of a person or the dynamics in a team. When this becomes visible, space can be created for change. I greatly enjoy when my clients and I succeed in resolving a restrictive and entrenched situation, thereby enabling a new way of dealing with oneself and other people.
The Metatheory of Change provides the theoretical background for my work. Regular further training and professional advice through peer reviews and supervision are part of my professional mindset.
What you can expect from me:
Having grown up in the south of Germany, I now enjoy living in Munich for the past 20 years after having lived in Heidelberg, Boston and Paris. I am married and have a grown-up son. I have been practicing mindfulness in my everyday life for many years and use this power to support my clients.
