Vision
People remembering their innate wholeness of being.
People recognizing the power of language.
People creating life-serving possibilities.
My Background
Spending many months in silence made me understand what language does with us and what we can do with it.
I studied Psychology, Psychopathology, Neurophysiology, and Applied Ethics at the University of Zurich. My master’s thesis was a depth-psychological extension of Solomon’s business ethics. The academic world gave me tools – but not the answers. When I met a Mexican healer, the world shifted. All of a sudden, I found myself in space, soft and connected, wise and intelligent.
The was the beginning of a long apprenticeship and a back and forward between two worlds. These 30 years between worlds have allowed me to understand the Western mind more deeply. Studying with Indigenous people from Mexico, Colombia and Peru made me understand how language works on us and what a powerful tool this is.
Reality itself is an act of creation, based on our own assumptions.
The work of C.G. Jung, Jean Gebser, Hannah Arendt, and Werner Erhard shaped my understanding of the ontological foundations of human existence — each in their own way pointing toward what language makes possible and what it forecloses.
My Work
I am a Gaia lover and worship all waters. The beauty of nature – her ongoing creations are my source of inspiration.
This work began when I met a Mexican healer 30 years ago. Context Work has been the heart of my explorations ever since.
For many years I led workshops exploring the nature of reality, ethical transformation and authentic communication.
I have worked with clients in addiction, delinquency, and with political refugees. Through this work I recognized something that changed everything: the structural impossibility my clients experienced was not individual pathology. It was imprisonment in myths that leave no room for otherness.
For three years I worked in Peruvian jungle, facilitating workshops and individual and group processes.
Context has always been the central concern of my work. I have spent my life moving between worlds. What I found in that movement is what I bring to this work and what I have written down in my book, „Context, a Vessel of Evolution“, completed and forthcoming.
