Sometimes this brings up sensations of emptiness, a lack of depth, or thoughts like “Am I even allowed to feel this way when I already have so much?” In the swirl of everyday life, there’s rarely time or space to truly pause, notice, and feel.
If you, too, sense a call for more meaning and light in your life, I am here to accompany you. I offer a space of calm and stability — a place where awareness and self-understanding can grow. In our work together, openness, respect, and joy form the foundation of my approach

Welcome!

Do you know the feeling: “I have so much in life, and yet… something still feels missing”?

Possible focus areas include:

• Transitions and (re)orientation — for example, career changes

• Strengthening self-worth

• Recognizing and transforming limiting beliefs

• Letting go of what no longer serves you

• Setting healthy boundaries and taking pauses

• Your mind matters — regular mental hygiene & self-care

• New to Vienna but not feeling at home yet?

I successfully completed my diploma program in Life and Social Counseling (LSB) in March 2026 and am currently gaining the final experiences required to obtain the official license. For now, I work as a Life and Social Counselor in training under supervision (psychosocial counseling).

Throughout my life, I’ve been curious, open-minded, and attuned to people, whether in hospitality and gastronomy or as a football and boccia coach for people with disabilities — roles that strengthened my empathy, communication, and encouragement. I grew and deepened my understanding of others.

After completing my bachelor’s degree, I felt the call to explore the world — wonderful experiences followed! In 2016, I began to find answers to some of life’s bigger questions. I followed that vision, and today I’m proud to have realized my goals (even if the path was not always straightforward). Along the way, I completed my master’s degree, found my professional focus in human resources, and finished the LSB training program. I’ve learned a great deal about myself, others, and the societies we live in — and my journey of learning continues.

Embracing yourself and the challenges life brings isn’t always easy. From personal experience, I can say — it’s deeply worthwhile.

That’s exactly what I wish for you, too. Take time to reconnect with yourself and your needs. Step by step, more fulfillment, meaning, lightness, and clarity can unfold in your life.

And who am I?
