From Reactivity to Choice
Learn to see more clearly.
Psychotherapy, Coaching & Courses Online
Meet the pattern — before it meets you.
You've reflected on your patterns, traced them back, made sense of them. In calmer moments, you can sometimes even see them coming.
And still - something takes over. A tightening in the chest. A familiar story, running before you've chosen it. The same dynamic with the people closest to you, arriving again before you've noticed you've stepped into it.
Understanding why something happens doesn't always stop it from happening.
Real shift isn't about more insight. It’s about a different quality of attention - one that meets the reaction as it rises, not just makes sense of it afterwards.
This is where our work begins.

WELCOME
Hello, I'm Claus
I’m a psychotherapist trained in Gestalt therapy, working with adults online and in person in Berlin.
The people who come to me are often thoughtful and self-aware. They’ve done real work on themselves. What they often find is that insight alone hasn’t changed what happens in the moments that matter. They are looking for a quality of attention that can stay present when things get difficult, rather than being swept away or retreating into analysis.
In our sessions, we slow down. We look at what’s actually happening – in the body, in the thoughts as they arise, in the emotional responses that often move faster than words. Not to analyze you from a distance, but to explore your experience together, with curiosity rather than urgency.
This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about learning to meet your own experience with greater clarity and steadiness. From there, what once felt automatic begins to feel workable – and gradually, genuinely yours to choose.

What Brings People to This Work
People arrive carrying different things. But certain experiences come up again and again:
Anxiety or persistent overthinking
Stress or burnout
Relationship conflict or recurring relational patterns
Divorce or separation
Emotional overwhelm
Anger or difficulty regulating reactions
A sense of disconnection or loss of direction
Depression or low mood
Repeating patterns that insight alone hasn’t resolved
Grief and Loss
None of these are treated as problems to be solved. They're understood as meaningful - as the shape of something deeper that's asking to be seen.
