Ottapri Fattebert Andrea (Biel/Bienne)

Welcome to my psychotherapy practice. Through the cracks of our walls we see the light.

When difficult events repeat themselves in your life and the pressure of suffering becomes too great. When you feel bad in your skin. When you are at a turning point in your life or, on the contrary, feel stuck. If you are straining relationships with those close to you or at work. If you are suffering from a symptom. If you are in search of yourself.

In a confidential setting I pick you up where you are, with your powerful, bright sides as well as with your unloved, weaker parts.

I address adults and offer individual, analytical psychotherapy based on the integrative psychotherapy of Charles Baudouin, a French humanist and psychoanalyst (1893-1963). Baudouin's method was first called "psychagogy," which literally means "accompaniment of the soul." This form of therapy integrates various theoretical concepts in its understanding of man and his unconscious: Sigmund Freud, Melanie Klein, Donald Wood Winnicott, for example, but also Carl Gustav Jung in working with dreams and transcendental content.

Individual Supervisions: With many years of professional experience as a musician and educator, psychotherapist and psychoanalyst, I offer individual supervision to psychologists in training and psychotherapists.

Focusing: The method of Focusing was created by the philosopher Eugen Gendlin (born in Austria in 1926). It is a gentle way of coming to terms with oneself. It involves paying open, interested and non-judgmental attention to what we already feel but cannot yet talk about.

This already sensed, what we often perceive as a "gut feeling," or "felt sense," is the way a problem or situation "feels" when we pause for a moment and allow a sensation to arise about it.

Focusing brings about an inner resonance that occurs when we detach from thoughts that often go in circles and focus our attention on our bodies.
