German-Speaking Therapist in Copenhagen
Grounded, depth-oriented and relational support for German speakers living in Denmark.
Therapy & coaching for German speakers who want clarity, grounding, and emotional stability.
Moving to Denmark can expand your life — but emotionally,
it can also unsettle it.
Many German-speaking expats describe a very specific experience:
“I function well, but I don’t feel like myself.”
“I miss emotional depth — conversations feel flatter here.”
“I can’t express myself fully in English or Danish.”
“I feel more alone inside than I expected.”
If this resonates, you’re not alone.
I offer therapy and coaching in German online and in-person, tailored for the emotional realities of life in Denmark. A safe, grounded space where you can speak in the language that carries your emotions, your history, and your depth.
Why emotional support in your mother tongue matters abroad
Even if you speak English fluently, emotional nuance often lives in your mother tongue.
German-speaking clients often tell me:
“I can explain myself in English, but I can’t feel myself.”
“I need someone who understands German relational patterns.”
“I don’t have to translate my emotions here.”
“It’s a relief not to perform or simplify.”
Living abroad can activate old patterns:
over-responsibility
emotional shutdown
self-abandonment
trying to “adapt” at the cost of yourself
loneliness masked by independence
You may find yourself:
overthinking instead of sensing
performing “being fine”
struggling to communicate emotional nuance
missing depth in friendships or relationships
carrying more responsibility than you can name
This isn’t weakness. It’s the natural strain of adaptation —
and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
The way we relate shapes the way we live.
The way we relate shapes the way we live.
Who I support
I work with German-speaking expats navigating:
emotional overwhelm or quiet burnout
stress from adaptation and workplace pressure
relationship patterns and attachment wounds
tension, shutdown, numbness, overthinking
identity shifts after relocation
difficulty expressing emotions in English
loss of aliveness, joy, or personal grounding
communication challenges at work or home
You don’t need a diagnosis.
You just need a place where your depth is understood.
Support that meets you where you are —
especially in moments that matter
Let’s explore how we can work together.
My approach
Not clinical. Not surface-level coaching.
A grounded, relational, body-aware process that meets you where you are.
I draw from:
Psychotherapy (MPF) — emotional depth with clarity
CoreEvolution® & somatic integration — the body as intelligence
mindfulness & presence-based work
systemic coaching & relational intelligence
embodied leadership tools
Together, we work at the intersections of:
emotion · body · relationship · meaning · identity
So you can live from clarity, not contraction.
How sessions work
In-person or online (video) — so you can join from anywhere in Denmark
English (or mixed EN/DE if you prefer)
Confidential
Calm, clear, emotionally grounded
Session formats include
-
Individual therapeutic coaching
-
Support during transitions (career, relocation, relationships, leadership)
-
Emotional clarity sessions
-
Longer-term integration work
If you’re a German speaker feeling overwhelmed, numb,
or disconnected — it’s not a failure.
It’s a sign you need a grounded space that speaks your language.
You can come home to yourself, even far from home.
Who this work is for
People, who:
want to feel like themselves again
are tired of coping and ready for clarity
carry a lot (emotionally, professionally, relationally)
want to lead from presence, not pressure
want to break old patterns
want to reconnect with aliveness, intuition, and self-trust
want a grounded, intelligent space to be fully honest
Come home to yourself -
So your relationships can breathe.
So your work feels aligned.
So you don’t have to hold it all together alone.
