About
Medical doctor (psychiatry, geriatrics and psychotherapeutic medicine) and psychotherapist in a private practice in Vienna and Lower Austria (since 2001), also working as a medical consultant in various institutions (senior citizens’ homes and mental health facilities)
My therapy approach is based on schema therapy (single, couples and groups) as well as on guided imagery (KIP technique) and trauma therapy methods such as EMDR, IRRT and others. I have been mainly treating patients with trauma/PTBD after violence/abuse/personal loss, borderline and other personality disorders, depression and bipolar disorders, anxiety, burnout syndrome, existential crisis and grief, obsessive-compulsive disorders, psychosis, dementia (assessment), alcohol abuse and ADHD in adults. No substance abuse, no eating disorders.
