I have the feeling something is blocking me:
Psychological stress from the likes of
perfectionism, procrastination, burn-/bore-out and high sensitivity
Sometimes we feel that we are standing in the way of our own happiness and this puts us under a lot of psychological stress. After a while our body can show symptoms such as head or stomach aches, high blood pressure or insomnia. To make things worse we may feel we have failed to live the life we should be living and as a consequence our self-worth may suffer.
At some point we may give up thinking that there is no way out but the negative feelings remain and we continue to suffer. Below I have listed a couple of typical situations such as burnout but there are many more. Often problematic old beliefs are in the way of our goals. The good news is we can actually change them when we are ready to. And perceiving how much a life can change for the positive when this happens is always a joy for me as a coach.
What can I do to help you recover from burnout/stress/mental blocks?
Typical statements from clients – sound familiar?
I feel sad; I ponder and brood a lot; I am unable to find a solution to my problem; I feel tired and exhausted and find myself withdrawing from the people around me even though I love them; to dos are piling up but I feel unable to tackle them and feel increasingly anxious.
In every life there are challenging phases where we get stuck and which can make us feel helpless. Phases, where our old strategies won’t work no matter how much we try. It makes sense to look for new ideas and coping strategies from the outside when this happens. I see myself as guide who is happy to analyse your present situation with you and help you develop new strategies so that you are free to move on.

About me
When I first started my training as a coach I soon realised that the line between coaching and therapy can sometimes be blurred. And I decided to add a couple of years studying psychology and passing a state test so as to be more because I wanted to help clients with deeper issues where a knowledge of coaching alone would not suffice.
The same motivation and my innate curiosity lead me on to add training in behavioural therapy, crisis management but also to learn about relaxation methods. All of this enables me to look at issues from various perspectives and find solutions together with my clients by choosing from a vast collection of valuable tools.
To me every human being is different and right just the way he is. I consider it my job to help my clients find their own solutions rather than imposing the same seemingly “perfect” tool on all of them regardless of their situation and background.
You can find further information about me and my background here.
I invite you to get in touch with me and leave your constraining beliefs behind you. The preliminary conversation is free of charge and you can end your coaching whenever you are ready to.
