Support
Understanding your situation and finding the next steps
Medicine is a wonderful science that is developing very quickly and can sometimes even work miracles. At its core, however, it is focused mainly on treating the physical body – on recognising and correcting the deviations in medical findings that lead the patient to seek help in the first place.
But a human being is much more than a body. We are whole beings – physical, psychological and spiritual. With our values, our outlook on life, our inner direction and everything we carry within us, we co-create our lives.
Facing an illness such as cancer often awakens fear. Fear of the unknown, uncertainty about the future, doubts about medical procedures, the search for other options. Changes in the body, in how we experience ourselves and in our relationships with others can seriously shake our sense of stability.
Many questions and few clear answers.
“I believe that only an empowered person can truly face illness and treatment.”
Supportive conversation
This is a space for supportive conversation.
Not a space where someone else “sorts out” your situation, but a space where you can see your situation more clearly and more holistically.
The foundation of this kind of work is trust. Trust can only grow in an honest, calm and safe environment, where there is room for questions, concerns, doubts and fears – as well as for your own view of illness, life and death.
In this process, areas that often remain unspoken in medical care also tend to open up: social hardship, existential questions and uncertainty, dilemmas about how to talk with children and loved ones.
Part of the support is also understanding the medical side of the illness.
Together we can shed light on:
- your medical records and test results
- the course of the illness and the treatment
- what individual pieces of information actually mean
My aim is not to hand you answers. What matters is that you understand your situation clearly enough to make decisions more calmly and consciously.
We take our time for the conversation.
Your loved ones can also be included, if you feel this would support you.
At the same time, it is important to know:
this way of working only makes sense if you are willing to take an active part in your own process.
Who is this space for?
This way of working is right for you if:
- you want to understand your situation more clearly, not just get answers
- you are willing to take an active part in your process
- you feel that the illness also raises questions that are not only medical
- you are willing to look where it is not necessarily comfortable
- you are looking for a conversation that brings not only reassurance, but also clarity
Who this space is not for
This way of working is not right for you if:
- you are looking for someone to go through the process for you
- you expect quick answers or simple solutions
- you mainly want your decisions confirmed, rather than an honest conversation
- you are not ready to take an active role in your situation
If you are looking for someone to “rescue” you, I am not the right person.
But if you want to better understand yourself and your path in a difficult situation, you are welcome.
