Anja Pelzer-Brennholt

My counseling, coaching and psychotherapy is very much shaped by the resource-oriented approach of Positive Psychology, which is the science of what constitutes a fulfilling life. I love to focus on the potential, resources, strengths, and values that every person possesses, which makes individuals thrive and flourish.

Also do I work with training programs which help you build more resilience and compassion for yourself and others, concepts essential for well-being; and as systemic coach for Positive Psychology. Taking a systemic approach to coaching means that we view both you and your concerns holistically, taking into account the relevant contexts and relationships in which you live. This opens up new—and sometimes unexpected—pathways to solutions for you. Systemic coaching has a lasting impact because it mentally incorporates key connections and people who are part of the change process. From a systemic perspective, you yourself can also be a system with many (internal) components, and examining each of them individually can lead to solutions.

I earned a MSc in Positive Psychology in the USA and offer psychotherapy in accordance with the German Alternative Medicine Act.
I have been working with ACT - Acceptance Commitment Training/ Therapy in both academic and practical settings in the non-clinical sector since 2017. As a licensed alternative practitioner in psychotherapy, I am pleased to be able to support you even when your stress levels exceed your coping capacity and mental health issues arise. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is part of the third wave of cognitive behavioral therapy and is a modern, scientifically grounded, and well-researched approach to psychotherapy.

Mental health and mental health disorders form a continuum with fluid boundaries, and we will carefully assess which approach is right for you.

Are you seeking personal or social growth? Are you going through a period of change? Are you looking for change in your personal or professional life? Do you need short-term support with a difficult decision? Would you like to resolve an inner conflict? Do you need support during a mental health crisis? Are you struggling with your thoughts, worries, or stress? Do you feel overwhelmed? Are you getting in your own way?

Do you need coaching, counseling, or psychotherapy?
I would be delighted to support you.
I offer sessions in German and English, both online and in person.
