What I do
After the death of a loved one, families in Switzerland face many tasks: authorities, deadlines, terminations, the estate, the tax return, clearing the apartment. All while dealing with grief.
I support families through this process. As a licensed psychotherapist (M.Sc., recognised by Swiss compulsory health insurance) I combine psychological care with practical and administrative help.
Who this is for
English-speaking families and individuals in Switzerland who have lost someone. Whether you have lived here for years or arrived recently, the Swiss system can feel overwhelming when you are grieving.
I speak German and English and can guide you through the Swiss processes. Correspondence with authorities is conducted in the required official language (usually German), while our conversations happen in English.
How I can help
Personal guidance. From an initial orientation session to complete administrative takeover with power of attorney. Adapted to your situation and how much you want to hand over.
Psychotherapy. Grief counselling for stress reactions after a loss. Covered by Swiss compulsory health insurance (OKP).
Digital app. A step-by-step checklist and knowledge database (currently only in German). If demand grows, an English version may follow.
Practical arrangements
Language. Our consultations, correspondence with you, and all explanations are in English. Official documents and correspondence with Swiss authorities remain in German (or the relevant official language).
Location. Based in Zurich. In-person meetings mainly in the Zurich area, remote support (phone, video) available Switzerland-wide.
