Integr. and  clin. Dance Movement Therapist, Body Therapist FPI , Arts Therapist Movement and Dance Therapy  (ED), Dance Movement Psychotherapist

Born in Basel in 1960, I went through 12 years of school there. Due to my experience as a movement teacher and dancer, I experienced that movement and dance also have far-reaching effects on the psyche. This led me to dance therapy. Since 1994 I have been an Integrative Dance and Movement Therapist, since 1012 a Dance Movement Psychotherapist. In 2014 I passed the Federal Higher Examination for Complementary Therapy, in 2016 the Federal Higher Examination for Art Therapy Movement and Dance Therapy.

My path led me in 1994 to Reha Rheinfelden, where I was given the task of setting up a dance therapy department and creating therapy concepts. From 2000 to 2010 I was given the management of the Creative Therapy / Music and Dance Department. During this time the clinic went through the process of quality review. This allowed me to think broadly about the quality control of dance therapy. In this context, I conceptualized the treatment strategies for the different disease groups and systematized the treatment protocol and reporting. In 2012 I left the clinic. In the whole time since 1994 until now I still lead and lead my
private office for Dance Movement Therapy in Basel.

I am married and have 4 adult patchwork children

I was born in 1991 and grew up in Gelterkinden in beautiful Baselland. After nine years of school, I completed an apprenticeship as a commercial clerk in Basel, which I successfully completed in 2011. I then traveled for some time and improved my English skills at a language school in Brighton, England.

After my return, I worked for several years in the communications department of a renowned company in Basel. It was there that I discovered my passion for communication and marketing, which led me to complete further training as an online marketing specialist in 2020.

Today I live with my partner in beautiful Rheinfelden AG. As a freedom-loving person, I find my inner peace by hiking in nature and doing yoga. Music is also a central part of my life and accompanies me every day.
