An initial conversation
We meet and talk about what has brought you to therapy. You can share as much or as little as feels comfortable.
Psychotherapy in German & English
When emotions feel too much or too far away, change is possible.
I’m Marie, an integrative psychotherapist offering thoughtful, active therapy for adults in person in West London and online.
Together, we can understand what keeps you feeling stuck, work with the emotions beneath long-standing patterns and move towards change that feels meaningful and lasting.
Arrange an initial conversationDoes this feel familiar?
You may understand your difficulties well, yet still find that nothing really shifts.
Your emotions may arrive too intensely or too quickly, leaving you anxious, overwhelmed, ashamed or out of control. Or you may feel very little at all: numb, empty, disconnected from yourself or unsure what you need.
Whatever you may be feeling, your experience is valid. An important part of creating change is making space to reflect on and explore those feelings, rather than moving past them too quickly.
Perhaps the same relationship difficulties or ways of coping keep returning. You may even have tried therapy before and gained valuable insight, yet still feel caught in the same place. We can start with what is happening now and look together at what may help it change.
You do not need a diagnosis or a perfectly defined problem to begin.
Thoughtful, confidential
and free from judgement
Who I am
Trauma-informed therapy, with warmth and honesty.
I am an integrative psychotherapist with trauma-informed training undertaken as part of my continuing professional development (CPD), and professional experience across the NHS, hospital settings in Germany and online therapeutic services.
Across these different clinical environments, I have supported people with complex, long-standing difficulties as well as acute periods of distress and concerns that have emerged more gradually over time.
I work in both German and English. I understand that language, culture and personal history shape how we experience ourselves, express emotion and relate to others. I bring that awareness into our work together.
Learn about my approachHow I work
Individual therapy, focused on meaningful change.
My approach is integrative and individualised. Rather than applying one method to everyone, we shape the therapy around your experiences, relationships, strengths and what you most want to change. The work may be focused and shorter term, or broader and longer term, depending on your needs.
We will pay attention to what is happening in the here and now while also exploring what you have learnt through earlier experiences. Together, we can notice how familiar emotional and relational patterns once helped you cope, where they now get in your way, and what different responses could become possible.
I am empathetic, curious and honest, and I take an active part in the process. I will listen carefully, ask questions and offer reflections. This helps us understand and validate painful experiences, reconnect you with your strengths and turn insight into meaningful change.
My experience
Support for what feels complex,
stuck or hard to carry.
Across the NHS, hospital-based settings in Germany and online psychotherapy services, I have supported people with a wide range of experiences and concerns.
- 01Overwhelming, intense or rapidly changing emotions
- 02Numbness, emptiness, disconnection or difficulty knowing what you feel
- 03Anxiety, low mood, burnout, shame, loneliness or a loss of direction
- 04Relationship difficulties and patterns that keep repeating
- 05Trauma, grief, loss and experiences that remain hard to process
- 06Self-esteem, identity, neurodivergence including autism, and living with a diagnosis such as bipolar disorder, an eating disorder or a personality disorder
Your difficulties are only part of the picture. Your strengths belong in the work too.

Taking the first step
You do not have to stay stuck.
If this way of working speaks to you, send a short message. You do not need to explain everything at once. I will get back to you to arrange an initial conversation and we can consider what might help.
Empathetic. Curious. Honest.
