Introduction
Hey, I am Antje and I am a psychologist and licensed psychotherapist specializing in cognitive-behavioral therapy. With my experience, flexibility, and empathy, I offer psychological support to help you navigate personal crises or challenging situations. I work from a resource-oriented and solution-focused approach, using techniques primarily from cognitive-behavioral and schema therapy, tailored to your specific issues.
Authenticity, empathy, and a healthy dose of humor are particularly important to me in our collaborative work. I firmly believe that you already possess the solutions to the psychological challenges you are facing. My role is to assist you in uncovering and developing these solutions. I am aware that the therapeutic process often involves emotional challenges, and I am dedicated to creating a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship.

About me and my working style
Born and raised in Leipzig, my way led me via a detour (via banking and market research) to Psychology. Here I felt for the first time on “my way” and this feeling has carried me through the efforts of my studies and further training as a psychological psychotherapist. In my free time I tend to be very active. I enjoy long walks, cycling, relaxing in the sauna, traveling, spending quality time with friends and family and indulging my passion for coffee.
As a psychological psychotherapist and counselor, my work methods are based on an empathic and solution-oriented approach. My scientific expertise also enables me to integrate current findings and research results into my counseling practice. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe and understood. I actively listen to you and support you in developing an understanding of your thoughts, feelings, needs and goals. Since I am convinced that you already have within you everything you need to develop your full potential, we design the solution strategies for your personal problem together. I support you in finding your own path and living a fulfilling life. My psychotherapeutic knowledge also enables me to clearly diagnose the problems of my clients with regard to disorders that may require therapy.
