Science, brought to life
Keynotes & Workshops
For more than ten years I've been on stages large and small – science festivals, conferences, corporate events and professional trainings. My style: making scientific topics vivid, hands-on and grounded in first-hand expertise. Talks and workshops are available in English and German.
My topics
Space psychology
Living and working in extreme environments – and what all of us on Earth can learn from it about crises, connection and resilience.
Body & mind
Embodiment, body-oriented psychotherapy and movement as a resource – from keynote to professional training for therapists.
Destigmatising mental health
Breaking down prejudice about mental illness and understanding neurodivergence – for an open society and a healthy work culture.
Winding paths
Alternative biographies, identity and professional flexibility – why curvy CVs are a strength.
Learning from extreme environments New
As a team psychologist I support analog astronauts on simulated Mars and Moon missions – crews that have to perform under isolation, time pressure and uncertainty. My workshops translate exactly that for life on Earth:
For teams: What holds crews together when things get tight? Communication, conflict resolution and psychological safety – tested under the most extreme conditions, translated for your day-to-day work.
Female leadership: Leading in environments that weren't built for you. Resilience, self-assertion and handling pressure – with insights from spaceflight and the psychology of extremes.
I design these workshops individually for companies, leadership programmes and events – in English or German. Let's talk about what fits your team.
On stage
Books
All titles are currently published in German.
Mission Fühlen
S. Fischer Verlage
What space psychology can teach us about everyday life. Astronauts experience the challenges we all face – loneliness, stress, staying connected across distance – in their most intense form. So why not learn from the people who cope with them for months on end, in the most hostile environment there is?
