I work with people who are tired of being run by their emotions, and with the parents, teachers and teams who support them. My work comes down to one idea: when you understand how your brain and emotions work, you stop fighting them.

I hold master's degrees in psychology and in counselling, and I started in research on emotion and emotional intelligence.

Today I see private clients to support their journey and run workshops and talks.

Before psychology, I spent more than a decade as a television presenter in Indonesia. I grew up between Indonesian and German cultures, lived in Jakarta for over 10 years, and moved to Singapore in 2018. I work in English, German and Bahasa Indonesia.

I'm also a mother of two, and a big part of my work is with parents and children. I know how it feels to be calm in theory and exhausted at 2am. That is why I founded Feel-o-sophy and created the Emotion Explorer Journal, a guided journal that helps children aged 6 to 12 name and work through big feelings.

How I work:

practical, evidence-based and direct. You leave sessions and talks with something you can use that week.
