Navigation of Love

about me

Born in Germany in 1977, I grew up
all over the world.

At the age of 25, I began studying
body awareness coaching according to Grinberg. Since then, I help people to free themselves from old patterns in order to develop their full potential.


In Berlin, I ran a company in the health sector for ten years, but then followed the call to live in nature. After initial attempts in Brandenburg and Brazil, southern Portugal became my new home.

When I was navigating my own stressful divorce in 2021, I discovered Conscious Uncoupling. I was so impressed that I decided to become a coach myself for this wonderful method to support people in either ending their relationship “on good terms” - or making it even better.

 

My great passion is to support MEN in love crises and to help them find their authentic expression in love.

In the more than 20 years that I have been supporting people, I have learned and applied many different techniques. My extensive acting experience also flows into my work.

But above all, it is the diverse experiences from the more than 30 years in which I was in love, engaged and married, that shape my work as a coach and mentor.

I have tried out various relationship models and ultimately ended up back at monogamy. With my life partner Eva Lara Gerhardt , who primarily supports women in the topics of self-love and relationship, I also offer joint coaching, seminars and retreats for couples.

As a father to my three children (10,14, 22),
which I partly raise(d) in patchwork constellations, I also know the
diverse challenges that family life can bring.


"The Way of the Superior Man" by David Deida and "Sexual Love, the Divine Way" by Barry Long
are books that have inspired me, as well as the work of Dianne Richardson and the Goodmans.

Humor is an indispensable ingredient for me, as is
the connection to the body, breathing and nature.

The techniques I use in my coachings include Conscious Uncoupling, The Work, Nonviolent Communication, Radical Honesty and Empathetic Listening, and The Wheel of Consent. If you are familiar with "Human Design", you might be interested to know that I am a "reflector" .
