Personal growth

Many concerns in coaching contain the goal of being able to behave more confidently, competently and professionally in a certain professional situation, e.g. to stay calmer, to achieve more self-confident goals or to make decisions more confidently. Our previous experiences determine to a large extent how we react to certain triggers (people, structures, situations).
Thus, coaching often becomes a process of personality development with a focus on inner psychological processes. This is exactly where psychological coaching comes in. My many years of experience as a psychotherapist enable me to specifically explore and name triggers and dysfunctional behavior and to change them together with you.

If you are in a management position, different, sometimes contradictory, expectations are placed on you from different sides. This task requires a lot of inner strenght. In the coaching process you can learn to reduce inner ambivalences and achieve a more efficient communication with your supervisor and your subordinates (executive coaching).

Since the limbic system (see point neuroscientific foundation) has a great influence on our behavior and its functioning develops especially in the first years of life, it is possible, although not necessary, that biographical experiences come into focus in the short term. As a psychotherapist, I am aware of many possible influences of the family of origin. Aspects can be: values and expectations of parents and grandparents, sibling position, perhaps less empathetic, egocentric-narcissistic or dependent parents. What was my role in the family (e.g. mediator, "Bambi", etc.)?  What basic convictions about myself, about authorities and about my possibilities for action did I internalize there?

The neuroscientifically based methods I use can effectively support you in finding a more professional inner attitude, be it more relaxed, calmer, self-confident, more proactive or all at the same time.
