Founder-led practice
A clinic, not a directory.
I founded the International Psychology Clinic because Munich's international community deserves more than a list of names. Therapy is too important to leave to algorithms — and too personal to outsource to a marketplace.
I lead the clinical work alongside a small, curated group of associated psychotherapists, each chosen for the depth of their training and the quality of their relational work. Some practise independently and elsewhere; what they share is an integrative, evidence-based, multilingual approach.
What we help with
Psychological support for a range of emotional challenges.
The most common reasons people come to us. Each links to a dedicated page with more detail.
Anxiety
Anxiety Therapy
Anxiety is one of the most common reasons people reach out to us. In a dynamic city like Munich — with its demands on work, family and identity — it is natural for the nervous system to become overstretched. Therapy helps you understand what your anxiety is responding to, and gives you tools to live and work without being controlled by it.

Burnout Therapy
Burnout is more than tiredness. It is a state of emotional, mental and often physical depletion that builds over months or years — usually in people who care deeply about doing things well. Therapy helps you recover, but more importantly, helps you understand what made the depletion possible in the first place.
Read more →Trauma
Trauma Therapy
Trauma can come from a single event or from years of small, accumulating experiences — and it shows up in the body as much as in the mind. We work carefully and at your pace, using methods that the research strongly supports for trauma: EMDR, schema work and emotion-focused therapy.

ADHD Support
Adult ADHD is often missed for decades, especially in high-functioning women and in expats. We offer structured psychological assessment and therapeutic support that takes the diagnosis seriously without pathologising — focused on practical, sustainable change.
Read more →Expat support
Expat Mental Health
Living abroad asks a lot of you. Beyond the practical adjustment, expats often carry a quieter, harder-to-name set of feelings — loss, identity shift, language fatigue, complicated relationships with home. Therapy in your own language, with a therapist who understands the international experience, makes a real difference.
