Prozessoriented psychotherapist (Swiss Association for Psychotherapists ASP)
Coach, Supervisor and Facilitator

I have been a Process-oriented psychotherapist (State-accredited), coach und facilitator for the past 30 years and a close associate of Dr. Amy and Arnold Mindell since the early 80-ties. I have facilitated change processes with individuals, relationships, teams, in organizations and universities (ETH Zürich) in more than 30 countries worldwide, currently holding trainings in Switzerland, Germany, Italy and Russia. Serving as Director of the Institute for Processwork Zurich 2005-2010, I have since been on the board. Under my label konfliktFest I am training psychologists, therapists, coaches, mediators and conflict workers in Worldwork-Conflict-Facilitation, writing articles and speaking at conferences on various topics. I am married and live with my family in Zurich.

In the friction between differences of viewpoints and feelings we find potentials and creative new developments: the keys to the future lie in today’s problems.

All actual life is encounter (Martin Buber)

– Deepen reflection
– Further dialogue
– Create connection
– Realize compassion
– Trust intuition
– Sharpen self-perception

konfliktFest applies the methodological approach of Worldwork (according to Arnold Mindell). Worldwork is experiential, interactive, grounded in analytical and humanistic psychology as well as in system thinking.

The facilitation opens a dialogic space for empathic encounter in such a way that potentials for conflict transformation develop and doors for change open. In this resonant space relationship is actualized in moment-to-moment interactions as the various conflictual positions are held and processed. After successful relationship work structural changes follow with ease.

As one viewpoint strives to overpower another, relationship processes are disrupted at hot spots. Worldwork supports the interaction of all viewpoints and given powers in a field: Together, they are the motor of change. Diversity work facilitates direct encounters between group members in the here and now and creates community through conflict transformation.

Worldwork methodologyinvolves awareness training, deepening the focus and the perceptual range on the experiential field, including microprocesses, sensory grounded signals, feeling and intuition. Rational as well as trans-rational experiences and dreams of participants are included as voices of the field. All positions, all roles, central and marginal ones, are being welcomed, heard and invited to the process.

A central ability of the facilitation is ‘reading of the room’, the precise perception of the atmosphere. It is about recognizing ‘weaker signals’, independent of where they come from. To facilitate a deeper dialogue, the facilitator understands the structure of the field and brings weak and strong signals into relationship. Facilitation discerns the structure of the process and supports present and emerging positions toward future solutions.

The systemic levels, individual, relationship, team and group processes are interconnected and mirror the same structural elements.

I/Self:
relationship to one’s on process, self-perception and inner diversity of parts (leadership development)
