Dr. rer. nat. Gregor Heiss
Humanistic Psychotherapist
The curious paradox is that when I accept myself,
just as I am, then I can change
- Carl Rogers
me
I support people through challenging life situations. To me, psychotherapy means creating a space where you feel understood and taken seriously—without pressure, but with the opportunity for growth and self-discovery.
My professional journey began in science and business before I turned to psychotherapy. These experiences have shaped my perspective on change and taught me how differently people navigate crises, decisions, and personal challenges.
I follow a person-centered approach because I believe that every individual has the capacity for change within them. My role is to accompany you in this process - with empathy, clarity, and a genuine interest in your personal development.

you
As a person-centered therapist, I believe in the potential of every individual to find their own solutions and resources. My goal is to help you identify and utilize your strengths to achieve your goals and live a fulfilling life. Here are some reasons you might consider seeking support from me:
-
Feeling stuck, lacking progress, or trapped in negative thought patterns
-
Dealing with the aftermath of a traumatic experience or illness
-
Struggling with your sexual orientation or feeling isolated in your identity
-
Navigating life transitions such as job changes, separations, or loss
-
Feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities and lacking energy or motivation
-
Experiencing inner tension or fear that limits your ability to fully engage with life
In our sessions, I will provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to express your thoughts and feelings without fear of criticism or pressure to conform to a certain way of thinking. Together, we will work to strengthen your self-confidence and self-acceptance, and to identify and overcome limiting beliefs and behaviors. My approach is based on empathy, active listening, and collaboration, and I am committed to supporting you in your personal growth and development.
