Focal points

About me

In my work, it is important to me to offer you an evidence-based, individual therapy program that makes sense for you. I accompany young and old to facilitate your communication and achieve personal goals. The focus is on fun, empathy and science.

 

I grew up in Vienna bilingually Swedish-German in a musical family, which sparked my interest in language, speaking and the voice. I completed my training as a speech therapist at the University of Lund, Sweden in 2017 with a Master of Science. Since then I have worked in two speech therapy outpatient clinics and a language education kindergarten. I have regularly trained myself in order to be able to offer my patients the best possible therapy. I have been nostrified in Austria since 2021.
