What's your approach?
​
I follow an approach known as integrative psychotherapy. I work scientifically as a psychological counsellor.
How do you work with different cultures?
​
I have always worked with nationally and culturally diverse people, couples and families. I respect other cultures and will work within your spiritual and religious beliefs. I have extensive experience of working with the English speaking community in Basel. Many of the couples and families I work with come from diverse cultural backgrounds.
How do I make an appointment?
​
Please either phone or email me and I will contact you to agree a convenient time to meet (email usually works best). If you are unable to see me during normal office hours, I am available in the evenings and at weekends. Just ask me and I will find a time. I also have spaces which I keep open for emergency appointments - I can see you quickly. I can see you in person or online. I have many online clients from cities throughout Switzerland and across Europe.
What happens when I come to see you?
​
We talk about why you have come to see me and agree together how to proceed. We work as partners to improve your relationships and your life.
How many times will I need to come and see you?
​
Each person's needs are different and this affects how often we meet. We develop your personalised plan together, based on your own situation and set of circumstances. We decide together how often we should meet and for how long. Some people seeking the answer to an important question may see me only once. Others may see me 6-10 times. A small number of people will see me for a year or longer. Sometimes people will see me for a while and after a break will return (possibly years later). How often you see me is entirely your choice. You see me as often as you feel the need to and as frequently as you wish.

Couples: CHF 200 per hour

If you are on a limited income I will definitely agree a fee you can afford. I will always support you in your therapy. Just ask me.
