PERSONAL

I was born in Vienna in 1963. As a mother of four daughters and one son, the diverse experiences of a large family everyday life continue to shape me to this day. These personal experiences support my practical understanding of the complex dynamics, challenges, and concerns of parents, children, and adolescents. At the malacht medical center, I work therapeutically and consultatively, accompanying people in an interdisciplinary environment with the goal of holistic psychological care.

TRAINING

My professional qualifications are based on a university degree in psychotherapy and continuous, specialized further training in developmental psychology:

• Psychotherapy Studies: Studies in psychotherapy with a focus on Integrative Therapy (IT) at Danube University Krems
• Academic Degree: Awarded the academic degree Magistra (Mag.) after successful completion of university education
• Specialization: Currently completing the legally mandated additional qualification “Infant, Child, and Adolescent Psychotherapy” to address the specific developmental stages and therapeutic requirements of minors and their caregivers.
• Extended Competencies: Continuous further training in applied psychology and professional coaching

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

My professional career includes several years of work in private practice as well as psychotherapeutic work in specialized child and youth welfare institutions.

Psychotherapeutic work in private practice
