Find new ways
My online counseling focuses on finding solutions to emotional and mental challenges. I particularly focus on processing negative experiences in relationships, toxic relationship patterns, and overcoming behaviors or fears that stand in the way of love.
Individual consultation
When the soul sends signals that something is no longer right, it can be helpful to talk about it.
Using client-centered counseling according to Carl Rogers, we carefully approach the underlying issue and find solutions together.
A private conversation with an unbiased, caring third party can open doors that were previously closed.
couples counseling
Bring your relationship back into balance by finding new ways together with the help of professional couples therapy.
Free yourselves from limiting beliefs and blocked emotions. Strengthen your love for one another.
Give your love a chance with couples therapy in my practice or online from the comfort of your own home.
hypnosis
Do you have fears, negative relationship experiences, or attachment problems?
Use the power of your subconscious to free yourself from everything that prevents you from living a more conscious and free life and a more loving relationship.
Hypnosis can be your key to greater inner clarity, self-love and increased well-being.
When is couples counseling useful?
If things in a marriage or relationship aren't going the way both partners want, it may initially be just a vague feeling. It's often hard to grasp why the bond that initially seemed so indestructible suddenly breaks down, or why you get the impression that your partner no longer truly understands you.
But this is precisely where the insidious process of alienation begins if the couple hasn't learned to recognize these small signs and actively work towards a better relationship. Therefore, the question of when couples counseling is appropriate is very simple: ideally right at the beginning of a new relationship. After all, why would you want to wait until emotional wounds arise that are rarely easy to heal? Why would you want to do something for your love only after it's already wounded?
Identify causes, instead of treating symptoms
To get to the root cause of all kinds of relationship problems, I first use client-centered counseling, allowing you as a couple to find your own solutions without me directly dictating the path. I believe that every couple is their own little universe, and both can find new solutions together if they reflect on their hearts and no longer view the many thoughts, hurtful words, and emotions of the past as the basis for their decisions.
Every planet in this universe must be aligned and in harmony with itself. If one of the two planets has fallen out of balance, this can cause a shift in the relationship that one or both of them find stressful or even unbearable. Stresses such as the birth of a child, a job change or loss, the loss of a loved one and other major events can cause such a shift. If the couple is working well together, they can usually find their center again after a certain amount of time. However, if cracks have already appeared in the outer shell of one or both planets due to ongoing, minor problems in communication, mutual respect and stability in the relationship, then urgent attention is needed.
That's why I look at the causes within each partner themselves, not just at the communication level. The subconscious reveals a lot about the actual reasons, and so it's often not immediately obvious to the couple themselves, but very quickly understandable why something has changed. That's why, upon request, I am happy to offer hypnosis to explore the causes, also to encourage the emotional processing of previous injuries. This usually makes it easier for a couple to communicate with each other in a more loving way and to adopt a different inner attitude towards one another. It also helps to significantly shorten the duration of couples therapy and make it more effective. However, that doesn't mean you have to use it. It is possible to receive couples counseling without hypnosis. I have also accompanied several couples where only one partner opted for it.
Advantages of online couples counseling
-
You can be on the other side of the world and still start improving your relationship right away.
-
I also offer appointments later in the evening so that the little ones can sleep next door while you get comfortable on the couch to talk to me.
-
You save time on travel and money on the babysitter.
-
You can start at any time with a much faster appointment scheduling
-
Nobody notices that you are doing couples therapy.
-
If one partner doesn't want to participate (yet), it's also possible to conduct couples counseling alone. This can, of course, also be done from another room.
-
I even offer hypnosis online, as I received additional training for this with Marisa Peer in London. This makes me one of the few RTT® therapists worldwide who specializes in the use of hypnosis for couples' problems in the online sector.
About me - Corinna Ackermann
At over 45, I've experienced life in all its facets. In addition to major career changes that led me to my calling, I've been in several long-term relationships, which resulted in a son who is now fifteen years old.
I was married, a stepmother to three children for eleven years, and experienced life in long-term relationships and also as a single person. I'm aware that every stage of life has its advantages and disadvantages, just like everything in our polarized world. And that's exactly how I go through my life with a great deal of down-to-earthness and clarity, even though my mental outlook is very spiritual in nature.
Nothing beats personal experience. Yet I've completed several training courses that have solidified my expertise and empowered me to work with people.
My insights motivate me to offer cause-oriented solutions to my fellow human beings every day. Because, as ancient cultures already recognized, the cause of suffering is spiritual and requires our special attention.
"I'm so thankful that I met Corinna. The problem issue that restricted me for so long has actually disappeared!
I can only recommend her to anyone who feels blocked or dissatisfied in a certain way!"
