I practice a pragmatic and practical coaching approach with its roots in my parents' gardening business. Already during my studies I placed people at the centre of economic activities within given systems. I am guided by the principle of reducing complexity in order to get to the heart of decision-making.

• I help you reflect on your situation and gain insights about yourself and facilitate your solution finding. It is crucial to identify your real concerns avoiding dealing with symptoms only.
• In case you could not find the solution entirely by yourself, I support you with my experience.
• Should your challenge concern your communication skills, I assist you in using language more reflectively and consciously.
• Should your concerns primarily lie in co-operation or in exchange with other people within given systems (work team, sports club, family...), I offer team building measures.

• Respectful interaction with each other on an equal footing
• Honesty, sincerity and authenticity
• Work should be fun and enjoyable
• Our conversations are absolutely confidential
• I am responsible for the process of the sessions - you are responsible for the content

• Put theory into practice: People often have analysed their difficulties and problems intensively, rationally and theoretically. Nevertheless, they can't get any further on their own.
  As a certified Quintessence®Coach, I have a wide range of tools at my disposal to help people deal with themselves and their environment more successfully, both professionally and privately.
• Understand yourself better: A better understanding of your behavioural styles enables you to deal with your challenges more efficiently. "Which strengths do you use in which situation and what potential for development you have."
  I use the internationally renowned LIFO® (Life Orientation) method for this purpose. Based on a questionnaire, it reveals your preferred behavioural styles in normal and stressful situations. In addition to a better understanding of yourself, you will also be able to better assess your dialogue partners. This gives you confidence in conversations and strengthens your negotiating skills.
• Formulate consciously and clearly: It often turns out that the difficulties identified are rooted in communication and the use of language.
  This is why I focus my support on communication and language. "How you can minimise or even avoid misunderstandings and conflicts through conscious formulations."

• are dissatisfied with your situation professionally or privately and cannot find a way out yourself,
• feel misunderstood by your superiors, your colleagues at work or your family and are willing to seek for assistance,
• want to change professionally and are looking for support in assessing your options,
• are overworked and are afraid to say NO when you are given additional tasks,
• have difficulties dealing with criticism,
• feel unfairly treated yet have difficulties to communicate your concerns, your needs and/or suggestions,
• repeatedly realise that you cannot assert yourself, that you are not listened to or given enough attention,
• have come to the conclusion that you cannot solve your situation solely by yourself

Then please contact me. I will be happy to support you.

The collaboration takes place face to face, via phone or online messaging services (e. g. WhatsApp, Skype, Zoom, Teams).

An initial consultation (lasting approx. 30 - 40 minutes) is free of charge and serves to:

• get to know each other,
• clarify your issues / concerns,
• define goals you want to achieve,
• agree on an appropriate cost rate.

The duration of our collaboration and the number of sessions or meetings depends on various factors (which issue/s, progress, setbacks, new circumstances or similar).
