After completing my Master’s degree in Psychology, I had the opportunity to engage in a multi-year PhD project at the University Hospital Basel, focusing on doctor-patient communication in emergency medicine. Following this, I spent 2.5 years in the United States, where I significantly deepened my English language skills. Upon returning, I continued working in academic research for several years.

Over time, however, my desire to work more directly with people and support them through emotional challenges became increasingly clear. This led me to pursue advanced training to become a federally licensed psychotherapist in Switzerland, with a specialization in cognitive behavioral therapy – an evidence-based and structured approach that resonates with me both professionally and personally.
I completed my clinical training at the outpatient clinic of the Psychiatric Services Baselland. In this role, I gained broad experience beyond individual therapy – from crisis intervention to leading a DBT group therapy program, and conducting forensic psychological assessments. A particularly meaningful part of my work was supervising junior colleagues. It made me realize how valuable it is to be present for others – with structure, clarity, and heart.

Today, I’m grateful to bring this wealth of experience to the Heart-Based Center – a place where professional expertise and authentic human connection go hand in hand.
