Abiba Saïbou

Founder

International Psychotherapy Berlin; Diploma in Psychology; licensed in Psychoanalysis and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

My passion is to reveal and decode the symbolic signs of the psyche. Fascinated by the uniqueness of every individual experience, I carefully open a safe space in which a cautious navigation through unconscious inner landscapes becomes possible. During this journey, my purpose is to support you in transforming painful conflicts such as the ability of feeling inner peace and joy grows and the vitality of the true self is allowed to evolve.

Alexandra Komorek

Diploma in Psychology; licensed in Psychoanalysis and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

In addition to symptomatic manifestations such as anxiety, depression, addiction or burn-out, the reason for psychotherapy is often a profound disturbance in the relationship with oneself.

A trusting, sustainable therapeutic relationship makes it possible to activate painful relationship patterns in the here and now and to learn to perceive them more consciously and to understand them against the background of one's own biography. In this way, you can gradually take a step back, supplement or replace them with other patterns that are more conducive to your own well-being and develop a more coherent sense of self.

BIBI ZAZAI

M.A. Educational Science; licensed in Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy for Children and Youth

As behavioral therapist I work with resources and solutions.

Paths are made by walking them…

It is about analyzing patterns of behavior and, if necessary, changing or optimizing them. It is important to actively work on the problems, to check to what extent personal attitudes, such as for example, "I'm only worth something if I make everything perfect" are useful, and how you can change them. To actively improve your self-esteem, self-efficacy and your sensory perception are central topics in therapy.

Franci Oliveira

Dipl-Psych; licensed in Psychoanalysis and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.

Through insight into the unconscious, analytic psychotherapy can give people the impulse to gain insights about themselves, to understand those better and to integrate them into their life. The enriching variety of feelings in one’s life story is not lost, but unfolds in a new, inner understanding of one's own world, which can lead to future changes. It is about a deeper, beyond the surface experience that can provide new insights into your inner world and thus new outlooks in the outer world.

M.Sc. in psychology; licensed in psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Our inner world is complex and multi-layered. In psychotherapy, we get to know our emotions, thoughts and ourselves better. My focus is not only on treating symptoms, but also on understanding the roots of the problems. Together we can go to a deeper level and connect you with your innermost needs and desires. I will accompany you on this process and help you to activate your resources, explore your inner world and resolve your inner conflicts.

Stefanie Jung

Dr., M.A. in Psychology; licensed in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

The act of revealing oneself fully to another and still being accepted may be the major vehicle of therapeutic help. – Irvin D. Yalom

To me, psychotherapy is an intimate journey. As a psychodynamic therapist I will accompany and guide you through your individual process. I believe that healing may eventuate with personal development and growth.

Along the way we may encounter beautiful as well as painful emotions, impulses and memories - each of which are equally welcome. Every aspect of you is valid and serves a function. My goal is to support you integrate these at times maybe contradicting parts of your self in order to give you the opportunity to regain your inner balance and self-respect.

Psychotherapists in Training

ANGELIKA MARSZEWSKI

M.Sc. in Psychology; Psychotherapist in Training (CBT), PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

“You can't change what you don't accept” (Carl G. Jung)

During our lives, we often find ourselves in situations in which we seek external support in order to live through them and grow from them. In the therapeutic accompaniment of such situations, my aim is to show you what resources you have and how you can apply them to your individual life situation.

Together with you, I would like to create a space for an encounter with yourself in which I treat you with empathy, openness and understanding.

I invite you to deal with issues that take place in the conscious and unconscious framework. Together we will develop perspectives to create the possibility of experiencing a new, qualitative way of life.

“The key to change lies not only in what we do, but also in what we think.” Aaron T. Beck

I completed my master's degree in psychology with a focus on clinical psychology and psychotherapy and have extensive knowledge and experience in supporting people in challenging phases of their lives. After graduating, I have now started my training as a behavioral therapist to further deepen my knowledge and to be able to support people even more specifically. I support people in understanding themselves better, discovering their inner strengths and changing patterns that hinder them. My aim is to make the exploration of one's own self tangible and to open up new perspectives for an authentic, fulfilled life.

Carl Berzow

M.Sc. in Psychology; Psychotherapist in Training (CBT), PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

Life is like a journey - yet sometimes the road ahead is difficult to see. I would like to support you in finding your own path, moving forward with what life has given you as luggage, in a manner that feels authentic and true to yourself.

Together we will explore the thoughts and beliefs that often unconsciously guide us and may sometimes stand in our way. We will work out concrete steps that you can take today to get closer to your goals. In order to know where the journey should lead, it is also important to gain a deeper understanding of your feelings and needs. Often, the path to a lighter and more fulfilling life begins with recognizing your unique qualities and challenges and approaching yourself with greater patience and kindness.

Felicia Wittmann

M.Sc. in Clinical Psychology, Psychotherapist in Training (Psychodynamic PT); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

In my depth-psychologically grounded work, I approach my patients with openness, empathy, and a keen eye for the particularities of their individual life realities. In a protected setting, I explore with you the influence of unconscious inner processes and biographical experiences on your thoughts, feelings, and actions. My primary goal is to support you in getting to know yourself better. Through this process of self-awareness, it will be easier for you to explore new ways of relating to yourself and others. In particular, we focus on your personal values, on what gives your life meaning and direction—and on how you can act in harmony with yourself in the here and now. Languages: German, English, Français

Felix Rostek

M.Sc. in Clinical Psychology, Psychotherapist in Training (Cognitive Behavioral); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

Every person has their own unique story, and it is this individuality, that forms the foundation of my therapeutic approach. Together, we will explore how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and influence your well-being. The goal is to identify unhelpful patterns and develop new strategies that can be realistically integrated into your life. I will support you in getting to know yourself better and discovering hidden strengths, so you can face life’s challenges with renewed confidence.

Your personal goals and needs are always the priority: whether you want to overcome anxiety, stabilize your mood, or enhance your overall quality of life—I will be there to guide you step by step. Change can be challenging, but together we will find ways that feel right and achievable.

Languages: English, German

 

Janika Ho

M.Sc. in clinical psychology; psychotherapist in training (Cognitive behavioral PT); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

Psychotherapy can open up new perspectives— especially during times when life feels heavy, when we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from ourselves.

As a cognitive behavioral therapist, I combine evidence-based methods with a warm and empathetic approach. We’ll work together to better understand your current struggles and identify practical, meaningful steps toward change. This might involve learning helpful strategies, challenging unhelpful patterns, or (re)discovering your own strengths and resources. I aim to create a space that offers both clarity and emotional depth to support meaningful, lasting change.

My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, mutual respect, and collaboration. At the center of our work is you—your story, your strengths, and your experience. I look forward to accompanying you on your path.

Jun Heier

M.A. in Psychology, Psychotherapist in Training (Psychoanalysis and Psychodynamic), autogenic, meditation and mindfulness training.

Ordination and 3-year priest training in Japan (Rinzai Zen Buddhism).

"Once you have found your way through the dark forest, you can never get lost in it again." (Zen Buddhist wisdom)

Sometimes life resembles a tangled thicket and it is difficult to walk through it. Under my guidance you will learn to build a good tool to find your very own way. Because my path has led me through Asia for a long time, I have learned to appreciate seemingly contradictory perspectives in equal measure. In the end, however, every path probably only ever leads to ourselves.

Leonard Lindstedt

M.Sc. in clinical psychology; psychotherapist in training (TfP); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

In my therapeutic work, I invite you on a creative and dynamic journey that is always oriented towards your individual needs and goals.

I have great respect for the uniqueness of each individual path and look forward to exploring your personal journey with you. In our work together, you should feel understood and empowered so that you find the courage to face life's challenges and become more aware of who you are and how you experience yourself.

For me, therapy is a way of self-discovery and self-healing. It offers the opportunity to understand, feel and heal yourself more deeply. I am here to accompany you on this path and to create a space together in which you can grow and develop.

Marla hünninghaus

M.Sc. in Psychology; Psychotherapist in training (TP); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

I want to offer you a space where you feel seen and understood, and where we can discover together what you need. I offer you a safe place where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and subconscious – at your own pace, in your own way.

Our work together will support you in better understanding past experiences, recognizing connections, and thus finding new perspectives for the present and future. It's also about getting to know yourself better, finding a more compassionate way of dealing with yourself, and recognizing your own needs.

Languages: English, German

Miriam Lohmann

M.Sc. in clinical psychology; psychotherapist in training (Cognitive behavioral PT); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

In our work together, I rely on proven methods of behavioral therapy to identify negative thought patterns and develop new behaviors. Based on this concept, we work together to bring about change step by step and improve your well-being.

My focus is always on your personal goals and values. It is important to me that an empathetic and accepting atmosphere prevails at all times, where you can share all your feelings, thoughts, and your story without judgment. Let's work together to shape your future positively.

Everyone is doing the best they can at all times. (Marsha M. Linehan).

Rahel Sultan

M.Sc. in Psychology; Psychotherapist in training (TP); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

In my psychodynamic work, I attach great importance to accompanying my clients with empathy and a deep understanding of their individual life stories and realities.

Together we explore both their current conflicts and the underlying unconscious dynamics that influence them.

By making unconscious patterns visible, a deeper self-awareness is made possible. It is important to me to work in a resource-oriented way and to use the client's existing strengths and abilities in order to develop sustainable coping strategies together.

Languages: English, Tigrinya, German

Sabrin El HAJ HUSSEIN

M.Sc. in clinical psychology; psychotherapist in training (CBT); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

As a warm and open person, it is particularly important to me to work with you as equals.

Every person is unique - not only because he or she only exists once, but also because of the individual diversity that characterizes life. It is precisely this uniqueness and diversity that I would like to discover, understand and strengthen together with you as part of our therapy.

I have a particular interest in intercultural psychotherapy. As a psychologist of Arab descent, I know how valuable it is to incorporate cultural backgrounds and individual experiences into therapeutic work. My aim is to create a space in which you feel understood and accepted - regardless of the path you have taken so far.

I look forward to accompanying you on your personal journey!

Shahla G. Mamadova

M.Sc. in clinical psychology; psychotherapist in training (Psychodynamic PT); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

Psychotherapy is more than just a process between therapist and patient/client. It is the deep, not coincidental encounter of two souls who meet on a shared journey. By the end of this adventure, neither remains the same - both are transformed, grown, and deeply moved. I invite you to embark on this journey because the most profound voyage is the one that leads to yourself.

“Wherever I rushed, far from myself, I remained in foreign lands.”

– N. Topchu

Toby Mayer

M.Sc. in clinical psychology; psychotherapist in training (Psychodynamic PT); PT2 at International Psychotherapy Berlin

In my psychodynamic work, I meet my clients on equal footing- with respect for their individual life stories and in the understanding that they are the experts of their own experiences. 

Together we explore how early life circumstances, unconscious inner conflicts and relational patterns can shape current experiences.

With expertise working with LGBTQ+ individuals, I place particular emphasis on creating a respectful, safe space where queer identities and life realities are openly welcomed.

My approach is always resource-oriented and supports personal growth and self-understanding.
