PRACTICE

Is my child ready for school? Are my daughter's tantrums a sign of ADHD? Are my sleep problems caused by stress? How do I best deal with the ups and downs of my emotions? Am I not coping well with new life situations? My husband has ADHD and I would like to know how we can find ways to understand each other better in our relationship.

In my practice, I advise children, young people, their parents, adults and their families. With many years of clinical experience, I can help you to classify difficulties and clarify questions about existing disorders.

In individual coaching sessions for children and adults, we look for strengths and resources. The goal is to strengthen self-confidence and learn techniques to better deal with difficulties. Neurofeedback training can significantly improve symptoms of many problem areas (ADHD, stress, anxiety, autism).

Due to my neuroscientific training, I would want patients, both young and old, to understand what happens in the brain and how it "makes" their behavior sometimes so "different." During my many years of clinical work, including as head of pediatric neuropsychology at the Inselspital in Bern, I treated children with illnesses and disorders such as ADHD, autism, epilepsy, oncological illnesses and traumatic brain injury. At the Biel Hospital Center, the focus was on adults with ADHD and the treatment of patients and their families.

Over the past 15 years, I have specialized in ADHD and its neurobiological causes, diagnosis and treatment. As an ADHD coach, I work with the patient's resources and strengths, with clear goals and in a solution-oriented manner.

As a member of the Federation of Swiss Psychologists FSP, I am committed to the professional ethical guidelines, which include, among other things, confidentiality, regular training and supervision.

I offer advice, coaching and neurofeedback, but not psychotherapy. I am therefore not recognized by health insurance, which is why you as a client have to cover the costs yourself. Ask your supplementary insurance whether they will contribute to the costs.

My hourly rate is CHF 150. If you serve an appenticeship please contact me.

If you are unable to attend an appointment, please cancel at least 48 hours in advance so that I do not have to charge you for the appointment.

I look forward to accompanying you with empathy, knowledge, conviction and, at times, humor to help you find your individual solution.
