Mental health in music
I work as a psychologist with artists, bands, labels, management and booking agencies and co-operate as a speaker and lecturer with festivals and associations in the music industry.
I am an active member of the MITC "Music Industry Therapist Collective", a globally networked and active collective of therapists with a background in the music industry. The MITC offers counselling, lectures and workshops as well as psychoeducation. At the beginning of 2020, I co-founded the MiM Association and was active there until mid-2022.

As a musician, I am also familiar with various networks and initiatives of women in the music industry (e.g. MusicGermanyWomen, Raketerei, V-Breakfast, MusicCoWomen, VUT MusicIndustryWomen).
