She is able to support both short-term, solution-focused work and longer-term counselling, tailoring the pace and focus to each person’s needs. Her practice also addresses intimacy-related concerns, career pressures, coping with life changes and family issues, as well as communication problems, isolation and gender-specific matters for men and women.

Her working hours are usually Mondays 8am until 5pm, Tuesdays 3pm until 5pm and Fridays 2pm until 7pm. Conny holds NCPS, a recognised professional counselling register, and BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, reflecting her commitment to ongoing professional standards. She offers therapy in English and German and focuses on creating a supportive space for exploration and practical change.

Therapeutic approaches and online support for everyday challenges

Conny commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on personal values and meaningful action, which can be useful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the center of the process by creating a nonjudgmental, empathic environment where self-understanding and growth can unfold, making it helpful for relationship issues, self-esteem and grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT offers practical strategies to identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, often aiding with anxiety, low mood and anger management.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Conny works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the focus as progress and priorities evolve.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how therapy is arranged. Clients can meet by video call or phone, or choose live chat and text-based messaging for shorter check-ins and ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person appointments are not possible, while allowing registered professionals like Conny to tailor the format to what suits each individual best.
