My own journey in relationships

I never thought that I’d be in a long term relationship, let alone that I would thrive in a fully committed marriage. When I was young I couldn’t imagine sharing my life with someone. Where connection with nature and animals came naturally, finding intimacy with human beings felt much more complicated. I left relationships when the first challenges would arise, feeling too scared to be truly vulnerable and unsure of how communicate and relate from a place of truth.

As I grew older I became curious about the mystery of human connection. When I met my life partner I knew that I wanted something different, and in order to do that I had to become a student of love.

Hand in hand with learning about my own path of healing attachment wounding and relational trauma I leapt into studies of social work, tantric philosophy, somatic trauma therapy and psychedelic therapy. Everything that I learned I tried out on myself and my relationships: the art of embodied healing, truthful communication, self compassion, the science of attachment and how to rewire the nervous system to allow for fulfilling intimate relationships.

Slowly my nervous system started to trust true intimacy with other human beings. Now, more than 15 years later, I’m in a thriving marriage that invites, challenges and seduces us to grow in love every single day.

I truly believe that relationships are a journey with a global perspective; the more we heal the wounds within ourselves and our relationships and restore wholeness, the more we can bring this to the ones around us and into the world.

A holistic and empathetic approach

No matter how many insights we have, true change happens in and through the body. Our nervous system needs to be on board with changes that we want to make, and for this we need to first and foremost create safety and compassion within ourselves.

When we are in relationship we are working both in our individual nervous systems, as well as with our relational nervous system to create new patterns of safety, communication and connection.

I support you in the healing and integration of old wounds and trauma, as well as with the actual implementation of new habits and patterns on a daily basis. Together we invite body, mind and heart into the next level of love, connection and intimacy.
