Psychological Counselling Zurich
Mae Matus

I was born in London and moved to Basel with my family when I was four. After growing up there, I moved to Zurich, drawn by the wish to make this beautiful city by the lake my home. Today I live here with my teenage daughter, and I am the proud mother of an adult son.

 

My path into psychological counselling began with my own experiences within a challenging family environment. Growing up with difficult dynamics shaped me early on and helped me understand, first-hand, how subtle patterns can have a deep impact. Out of this, I developed strong, grounded empathy and a genuine understanding of many different life challenges.

 

My training in Gestalt therapy at the Institute for Body-Centred Psychotherapy (IKP), together with further training in schema therapy at IST Eastern Switzerland and in emotionally focused couple therapy (EFT), shapes how I support you in developing new perspectives and building inner strength.

 

Sessions are available in English and German, both at native-speaker level.

 

I believe change becomes possible when we feel safe enough to try something new.
