Methods I Work With
In practice I combine several methods depending on the topic. An overview with a dedicated page for each:
- Hypnosis – gentle access to the unconscious for fears, panic and old patterns.
- WingWave & EMDR – bilateral stimulation to quickly resolve stress and distressing memories.
- Trauma Therapy – integrative, resource-oriented approach using IFS, EMDR, hypnosis and TRT.
- IFS – Internal Family Systems – working with inner parts to understand and resolve old conflicts.
- NLP – establishing new thought and behavioural patterns in a lasting way.
- The Work by Byron Katie – questioning and dissolving stressful thoughts.
- Transpersonal Regression Therapy (TRT) – access to deeply anchored imprints.
- Meditation & Relaxation – effective techniques for anxiety, panic and stress.
All methods at a glance on the Methods page. Not sure where to start? Read more about Burnout & Anxiety or how anxiety coaching works.
