I was born in Munich in 1955. My childhood was deeply shaped by the shocks and hardships of World War II and the post-war period, experiences that my parents and grandparents had lived through. Perhaps because of this, a desire to help others and to ease grief and pain took root in me early on. This led me to become a nurse, and for over ten years, I worked as a ward manager at the Clinic in Memmingen, Bavaria.

Through my contact with the psychosomatic clinic in Grönenbach, training in client-centered psychotherapy according to Carl Rogers, and further studies in rebirthing, I had profound experiences that set me on a long path of personal and professional development. From 1991 to 2000, I worked at the psychosomatic clinic in Grönenbach, a place that enriched me both professionally and personally. There, I dedicated myself especially to the healing of emotionally and sexually traumatized women.

In 1993, I discovered Bert Hellinger’s systemic constellations. His work with family systems has profoundly shaped both my professional and personal journey. I deepened my understanding of constellation work through further training with Bert Hellinger, Gunthard Weber, Jakob Schneider, Mathias Varga von Kibèd, and Sneh Victoria Schnabel. In trauma therapy, Peter Levine and Anngwyn St. Just became my mentors.

In 1995, my husband and I took over the “Glückshof” seminar house in Bavaria. In May 2000, I opened my own psychotherapy practice, and soon after, I began offering family-systemic workshops in Germany, Italy, and Switzerland.

In 2006, my book Feuerroter Wandel, a spiritual guide to menopause, was published by Köselverlag.

Since 2005, my husband and I have been living in the beautiful region of Upper Bavaria. My individual consultations and workshops take place in my office in Bad Tölz as well as online worldwide.

After several more years of studying Tantric teachings and traditions with Regina König and Hellwig Schinko, a new dimension opened in my understanding of how deeply women and men are often restricted in their sexual understanding of the body by patriarchal Christian traditions. From this insight, I developed Yoni Constellations for women, exploring the depths of femininity, its life-giving and cyclical nature. This work is very close to my heart, deeply fulfilling, and always touches me profoundly.
