As an intermedial arts therapist I am working with a person centred approach and a variety of arts media. Besides drawing and painting, I am specialized in performance art, photography, video, animation, and installation. Following the legacy of Dada and Fluxus artists I provide a save space for playful exploration of life experiences, guided by mindfulness and awareness techniques, influenced by the Japanese contemporary dance and performance art form Butoh.

I am focusing on work-, as well as family-based stress & burn-out, anxiety or depression, loss, bereavement and grief, working long term as well as short term with adults, young adults and children.

I am a member of the British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT) in the U.K., Deutscher Fachverband für Kunst- und Gestaltungstherapie (DFKGT) in Germany, and the European Federation of Art Therapy (EFAT). Additionally, I am the representative of Medical School Hamburg at the European Consortium of Arts Therapies Education (ECArTE).
