Feel yourself.

Emotionscoaching
In emotionally-focused coaching the goal is to recover safe access to your own feelings. Many people have learned to control, suppress, or rationally explain emotions.In emotionally focused coaching I help you understand your feelings step by step and learn to hold them without being overwhelmed.I support you in experiencing your emotions in the moment, without pressure and judgment.This way I will help you build a safe, clear connection with yourself and find stability and self-acceptanceal lowing you to let go of overthinking and make confident decisions.
Men's Work
In men-specific work the focus is on gaining a clear understanding of which old imprints and habits keep bringing you up against the same limits. Through our work together your ability to stay in contact with your feelings grows. You develop inner stability and learn to stand up for yourself with clarity.Hearby you create a sense of inner safety for a life as a man in a way that feels aligned. Not through adaptation, but from connection within yourself, in authenticity as a partner, father and in your professional life.
Father ^ Hood
Fatherhood today is often lived in the absence of reliable role models. Often men have to find their own way of fathering without ever having experienced what a present and responsible fatherhood looks like. Caught between new expectations, old imprints, and a lack of orientation, inner insecurity arises showing up in everyday life as withdrawal, toughness or exhaustion.We do not work with parenting formulas. Let’s find your authentic inner stance by which you intentionally shape your role as a father in an equal and respectful form of parenthood.This is how a responsible father role emerges. One you consciously choose. Guiding, effective, and rooted in heartfelt connection with your children.
parenting counseling
As parents, we experience deep love for our children and want to provide our very best at anytime. All the more painful it becomes when we repeatedly get caught in cycles of escalation, unable to reach our children, are confronted with our own self reproach or that of our children, and find ourselves trapped in a loop of frustration, helplessness, and guilt.“It takes a village to raise a child.”
~ African proverb ~In the traditional family model, two parents are expected to be experts in all areas of life that influence a child’s development. Yet many parents have never experienced healthy role models they could orient themselves by. Supporting resilient children on their path toward independence while staying connected with them requires the courage to allow support.In parenting counseling, you are given a space that acknowledges you in your role as a parent and offers new perspectives to let go of blockages and destructive cycles. With my many years of experience as a trauma informed educator and single dad I support you in recognizing your own intuitive competence as a parent and reconnecting with your child.When parenting turns into relationship, children can grow up safely and parenthood can feel fulfilling.
Ethical Non-Monogamy
You opened your relationship. Perhaps out of curiosity, a desire for more closeness, or because it felt like the last chance not to lose each other.Instead of freedom and connection, you experience overwhelm: fear of loss, jealousy and constant comparison with new partners push you toward control in order to feel safe.At the same time you lack the inner stability to sort through your own feelings, honor your boundaries and communicate intentionally.I support you in recognizing yourself, staying grounded within yourself and connecting inner safety with freedom. So that you can choose yourself every day.

About
Hi! I am Friedrich, a father of two biological children and three bonus children, living in a polyamorous relationship with my partner and as a family with my metamour and the children in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I am a trained educator of 15 years experience in trauma sensitive work in child and youth services and in support for people with special needs.At the age of 23 I began my journey into fatherhood and, through several blows of fate, learned to be the steady presence my family needed, providing stability and orientation and giving my children the certainty of being held and supported.I grew up without healthy role models. Like many men, I faced the decision of whether to relate to my children in the way I had been related to or to set out on a path toward finding my own present and healthy identity as a man, father, and partner.What I did not realize at the time was that I was willing to give it all without knowing who I was, what I needed, or that it was my choice whether I experienced acceptance, love, and recognition. I embarked on a path that seemed linear, in reality I was moving along a vertical spiral, going many rounds up and down until I understood that it is my decision that determines the direction.Today, I know that good relationships succeed when you stay connected to yourself. In emotionally focused work, I help you reconnect with self acceptance, recognize emotions as allies and understand the needs that lie beneath them.
