about me |

As a Communication Trainer, Art Psychotherapist and Organizational Consultant I cover a wide range. Thanks to my breadth of work experience in different areas of work, such as Business, Corporate & down, Health Care and  Advanced Education, I can support you in a variety of problematic situations to develop your individual solutions. Because of my hearing impairment I have explored the area of communication intensively and extentsively on all levels. As a result, I have developed the ability to reach different audiences effectively.

I see my role in supporting you to take charge of your life and your projects and to find joy in who you are and what you do.
