My story

This is a portrait in the german Magazine “Psychologie Heute” of me and my dad.

It all starts with a passion. Maybe you want to push past your limits, overcome mental barriers, or unlock your full potential. For me, it was the frustration of not finding the right guidance, despite having a psychologist as a father. I should have had all the answers at home, but I didn’t. At just 10 years old, I told him he wasn’t allowed to watch me play. Why? Because I felt immense pressure.

Whether in competitive table tennis or playing the clarinet and saxophone, I struggled with the mental side of performance. Later, when I was supposed to help young football talents, I realized that no one really knew what was happening in those crucial mental moments. That’s when I began my search, diving deep into the psychology of performance and creativity.

It has become my mission to help people navigate these challenges especially artists and performers who share their craft with the world. Because stepping onto a stage, putting yourself out there, and expressing your art is one of the greatest challenges of all.
