About Me

Sven Collip

I work with people in times of crisis, transition, and challenging life situations.
My approach combines systemic individual and couples therapy, hypnotherapy in the tradition of Milton Erickson, and psycho-oncological support. I also bring many years of experience in psychotraumatology.

My work is shaped not only by professional training, but by an intensive personal path. Part of this path led me to spend several years in a Buddhist monastery, an experience that continues to inform my therapeutic work to this day.
At the heart of my work is the kind of contact we establish. It allows even contradictory or difficult-to-make-sense-of experiences to be spoken about.
Rather than quickly treating feelings or reactions as problems, we take time to look more closely at how they are being dealt with.

Ongoing professional exchange with colleagues from psychotherapy and medicine is an integral part of my work.
