What is Psychosynthesis?

Psychosynthesis is a holistic psychotherapeutic approach that views every person as a unique combination of various personality aspects – both conscious and unconscious, as well as vulnerable and powerful. The goal of this method is to integrate inner conflicts, release blockages, and unlock a person’s full potential. Developed by the Italian psychiatrist Roberto Assagioli, Psychosynthesis blends psychological, creative, and spiritual elements to support a person’s overall growth.

At its core, Psychosynthesis is based on the idea that personal growth occurs when we do not suppress, but instead consciously acknowledge and harmonize the different inner voices – such as the inner child, the inner critic, or our creative self. Psychosynthesis helps people gain a deeper understanding of themselves, achieve inner clarity, and find a coherent, meaningful path in life.

In Psychosynthesis work, methods such as guided imagination, creative expression, engaging with the shadow self, and meditative centering are used. It not only promotes emotional balance but also strengthens the connection to one’s core essence, thereby opening up the space for personal and spiritual growth.

I use Psychosynthesis in individual and couples counseling to support people through life transitions, relationship crises, or on their journey to greater self-awareness and inner alignment.

Person-Centred Counselling According to Carl Rogers

Person-centred counselling – also known as client-centred counselling – was developed by the American psychologist Carl Rogers. It is part of the humanistic approaches to psychotherapy and is based on a deep trust in the natural developmental potential of the individual.

At its core, it holds the belief that every person has the inherent ability to grow, develop, and heal – provided they experience a relationship where they are accompanied authentically, with appreciation and empathy. This is exactly the approach taken by the counsellor or therapist in person-centred work.

Key elements of this approach include unconditional positive regard, empathy, and congruence – authenticity in the relationship between the client and the counsellor. The focus is not on finding the “right solution,” but on the client’s inner experience. Through active listening, empathetic feedback, and a non-judgmental attitude, a safe space is created where personal insights can unfold and individual paths can be discovered.

This method empowers individuals to perceive their feelings more clearly, understand themselves better, and reconnect with their inner resources and goals. It is not about giving advice but about supporting the individual’s development process – with respect, mindfulness, and trust.

Person-centred counselling is particularly beneficial for those seeking clarity, inner alignment, or emotional relief. It is successfully applied in psychological counselling, psychotherapy, education, and coaching.

In my work, I use this approach both in individual counselling and couples’ support. I offer a space where you can be seen, heard, and understood – without pressure, without judgment, and at your own pace.

What is Systemic Constellation Work (also known as Family Constellations)?

Systemic Constellation Work  (Family Constellations) is a method from systemic therapy and counselling that allows relationship dynamics and hidden patterns within a system to become visible. This can involve family, partnership, professional, or organizational systems.

In a constellation, individuals or representatives are positioned in space to reflect the relationships and roles within the system being examined. This spatial arrangement creates a holistic picture of the inner and outer structures – often with surprising clarity.

Systemic constellations help identify entangled dynamics, unconscious loyalties, or blocking patterns. The representatives often experience emotional states or tensions connected to their position in the system – even without prior knowledge of the content. This allows previously unconscious connections to become felt and recognized.

This method enables a shift in perspective and opens up new spaces for solutions. It is particularly effective in addressing recurring relationship conflicts, internal blockages, professional decision-making situations, or clarifying family issues.

I apply systemic constellation work in individual counselling as well as in couples or group therapy settings – always with sensitivity, respect, and a safe environment where new insights can emerge.
