As a child, the world always felt like an intense place for me. I always felt different. Too much and not enough at the same time. Growing up undiagnosed neurodivergent, my home was not able to meet my needs . I developed ways to cope, either engaging in compulsive, controlling behaviours or in suppressing, numbing behaviours. Both left me stuck in shame, convinced something was wrong with me.

As I got older, the pain found louder outlets and self-destructive coping mechanisms. I looked functional from the outside—finished school, held a job—but inside, I was lost and disconnected from who I was. It wasn’t until much later that I landed in a deep depression. My coping mechanisms became more extreme—drugs, parties, chaos—trying to feel free. Instead, I ended up in an abusive relationship that left me with deep PTSD and a body that more unsafe than ever.

I felt like an absolute failure in my highly capitalistic home country and moved to Berlin. Here I could finally be queer, weird, messy—and still belong. But I was still running, trying to not be present with my internal world. Years of escape through substance addiction followed and left me more lost than ever. Eventually I hit rock bottom and I left Berlin to become sober. A long period of isolation and disconnection followed. It was the most disorienting time of my life, spending most of my days going between states of derealisation and terror.

What followed was slow and difficult healing. I turned toward somatic work, meditation, and therapy. I began reconnecting with my body and its wisdom. Discovering Internal Family Systems (IFS) helped me meet parts of myself I had long exiled—with compassion instead of fear. For the first time, I understood: I was never broken. My system was trying to keep me safe.

Besides therapy, I continued my journey of self-discovery. I explored various modalities, created a new lifestyle, discovered new passions, found safety within my body and the world, cultivated self-compassion, and undid years of shame. Ultimately, I found a purpose: to help others in the struggles I faced. The mission of letting other people not go through ‘having to do it all alone’. The mission of helping others find safety and belonging.

Over the past four years, I've extensively researched and practiced numerous healing modalities. I studied (and practiced) Internal Family Systems, Somatics, Holistic Life Coaching, Mindfulness, and Neuroscience. My coaching approach is a unique integration of these modalities, drawing from my personal journey of healing and transformation.

Now, I work as a coach and facilitator. I support people who feel lost, stuck, or too broken to heal. People ready to come home to themselves, to feel safe again.

If that’s you, I see you. And I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
