As a gay man and a member of the LGBTQ community, I specialize in these issues:
- Minority stress
- Substance use during sex, chemsex – recognize the needs behind it and find alternative ways
- Sex portals, gay scene, fetish/BDSM scene, transgressions – what do I really want?
Therapy methods
During our work together we find the appropriate methods that are right for you and your situation, among them are techniques from
- talk therapy,
- hypnosis,
- work with inner parts using chairs or anchoring positions with cards on the floor (systemic approach),
- Focusing,
- NLP (neuro-linguistic programming),
- trauma therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
- relaxation exercises, mindfulness and meditation.
The framework and basis of my work is the Integrative Psychotherapy (IPT) according to Christoph Mahr. IPT is a goal-, solution- and resource-oriented therapy approach, emotion-focused and offers the possibility to integrate various theoretical methods.
Feel free to ask me if you have any questions or requests regarding therapy methods.
It is important to understand that a psychotherapeutic method taken alone does little to determine how effective the joint work is. Rather, what is crucial is your inner willingness to face the issues with openness and curiosity, to allow new experiences and to be open to personal development – it is the whole person that changes, not just a single symptom.
Modalities & Cost
After that, sessions are preferably face-to-face and last 60 minutes. If interested, please ask about online sessions and sessions of 90 minutes in length.
The cost for 60 minutes is 90 €, payment is made in cash at the end of the session. Note that my services as a non-medical practitioner for psychotherapy (Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapie) are not billable with the public health insurances and have to be paid privately.
The practice location is the Praxis Lierhaus in Sigmaringer Str. 26, 10713 Berlin.
This is approximately 6 minutes by foot from either U-Bahnhof Fehrbelliner Platz or Blissestraße.

The curious paradox is
that when I accept myself
just as I am,
then I can change.
