There is nothing permanent except change.
Heraclitus
… and change does not have to be a bad thing.
I was born in Kazakhstan and grew up in Bavaria. After studying mechanical engineering at the Technical University of Dresden, I moved to Berlin in 2014 to work as an aerospace engineer. In this field, I repeatedly demonstrated my ability to both integrate complex problems into the bigger picture and analyze and address them down to the smallest detail. My clients benefit from this skill today, because nothing is more complex than the human psyche.
Working in a large company also nurtured my lifelong interest in people and their interactions, and I became increasingly involved in mental health and work-life balance within my team and department. This included conducting employee training in Nonviolent Communication according to Marshall Rosenberg, as well as stress resilience training.
At the same time, I was searching for ways to achieve lasting positive transformation for myself, as I could function perfectly well without being particularly happy, and decided to change careers. I wanted to finally live instead of just existing. I supplemented my own experience with in-depth training.
After taking a long look at my life during the Covid pandemic, I decided in early 2021 to work with people full-time, rather than just part-time. Since then, I have worked freelance as a mindfulness teacher, which led to my desire to also work therapeutically. In June 2022, I received my MBSR teacher certification from the Institute for Mindfulness, and in May 2023, I received my license to practice psychotherapy from the Berlin-Lichtenberg Health Department after completing my training as a non-medical practitioner of psychotherapy at the Paracelsus School. At the Institute for Systemic Therapy (IST), I qualified as a systemic therapist and in systemic trauma therapy. In addition to my private practice, I work for certified organizations providing psychological stabilization and support to currently unemployed individuals through AVGS coaching programs and to people with a refugee background.
