Therapy with Katharina Schuldner helped me find a self-determined path in life. She accompanies me, asks questions, and helps, but doesn’t patronize me. With her, I was able to grow through conversations that took place on equal terms. I value that very much.
I have known Katharina for many years and see her as an empathic, competent and very outgoing colleague. I value in particular her great curiosity for the differences of people and her courage to test new experiences, but also to go completely new paths in life. I had the opportunity to follow her career for some years as a Coach. In this role, too, I have found our conversations to be very enriching indeed.
After I had left the first counselling-session with Katharina Schuldner, I whispered to myself under my breath: “I´ve made it! At last, I have found someone who understands, who knows exactly what I´ve been talking about and what I´ve been through.” I felt I had an anchorhold for the first time. The relief is huge. It is healing. It gave me back a true sense of my own value, of my integrity – after years of undermining and unjustified assault.
Katharina Schuldner listens with an appreciation of what it is like to be abused in this way by an intimate partner, parent, colleague, even friend. In our ongoing conversations, I feel she is like a concerned and determined trade union representative supporting my rights as a worker. She encourages me to stand up for myself and explains how to do it. She offers solidarity and a renewed sense of life being worthwhile.
Katharina Schuldner is a very empathetic therapist. She is very good at empathizing with people and situations and understanding their perspective and position. She has a very good sense of what the other person needs in the moment. She listens compassionately, communicates with dignity, and creates a trusting environment characterized by fairness, where one feels well cared for.
During our sessions, I felt seen, respected, and, above all, understood, and was able to be completely myself. Every topic had its place, no matter how often it was brought up. The shared exchange and appreciative communication on an equal level helped me regain a significant portion of my quality of life, rediscover my strength and confidence, and encourage me to stand up for myself.
I have known Katharina Schuldner for almost 25 years now and value her emotional and spontaneous persona. Furthermore, she has a sharp mind. She has great talent, to empathize with other people and portray closeness as well as a safe environment, as she has got a good sense and intuition.
Katharina is a highly qualified Psychotherapist with a rich level of experience. She has also been a victim of narcissistic abuse herself, and has experienced all the lows and subsequent highs after the abuse. In contrast to other therapists, she has a deep understanding and compassion for male and female victims. Her easy-to-understand, clear, non-direct kind of psychotherapy makes her a real narcissism specialist, which are very rare! She works alone or in groups with the victims. I am very glad to be able to work with Katharina to help as many people as possible, to educate them and to prevent this kind of abuse in the future.
Unexcited, unidealistic, straightforward and compassionate.
