I am the founder and director of Vienna Psychology Praxis, a vibrant group practice with locations in Madison Square Park and the West Village.

My treatment focus is on professionals and couples.

I offer individual therapy to professionals in highly demanding corporate technology, law and finance jobs. My previous career in a competitive legal field offers an unparalleled degree of insight and understanding of today's corporate professional culture.  

In couples therapy, I help couples regain the essential basis of a successful longterm relationship.  My expertise is derived from evidence based research into couples therapy with a focus on positive behavior change through communication enhancement and problem solving skills and borrowing from systemic and attachment theory.

Originally from Vienna, Austria, I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology in New York and have trained and worked in multiple international settings, including The Tavistock Clinic (London, UK), The Cassel Hospital (Richmond, UK), Goethe University (Germany) as well as Lenox Hill and Mount Sinai hospitals (New York). 

Before becoming a clinical psychologist, I worked as Senior Legal Counsel at the European Central Bank. I hold a law degree from the University of Vienna and a graduate diploma in international relations from the School of Advanced International Studies, Johns Hopkins University. 

As an active Board member of the Freud Foundation US, I enjoy close ties to the Sigmund Freud Museum in Vienna and have a lot of experience with bilingual clients, offering therapy in English and German.
