I’ve been struggling with being overweight since I was 12 and was often bullied at school because of it.

Due to various traumas, it was difficult for me to get in contact with people without prejudice. To protect myself, I often didn’t trust people and judged them. It was a problem  especially at work. I was always very upset when co-workers behave unfairly or difficult. I took the stress home with me to my family.

Through working with Juliane I have learned to reconnect with myself and to listen to my body and my feelings and to regulate emotions that are not good for me. I approach people differently now. In conversations, I noticed how rearranging sentences improved my communication. I approach conversations at work much more positively and relaxed, and it also helps me to communicate clearer with my wife at home. Recognizing my own needs as well as setting boundaries, has helped me feel more secure in myself, non judgemental, and enabled me to protect myself while staying open to others.

The trouble with colleagues is gone. Now I see how much time and energy it took me. How much space it took up in my head and how creative I’ve been ever since. I have learned what is good for me and my body, to change my diet, healthy and tasty. I’ve lost over 10kg without it tormenting me.

The chat support option helped me a lot. I was always able to  get passed difficult moments, through direct contact with Juliane. I surprised myself during the process. I found healthy access to myself and am now really good at reflecting on myself and understanding myself better. I also never thought that I could lose weight so well, over several months, despite birthdays, Christmas and other events. I would consider that the greatest success. I’ve become much calmer and more relaxed when things don’t go the way I had hoped. I can recognize and regulate my emotions better, which also helps me in dealing with my little son and my wife.

I’d love to recommend Juliane. She is always present and focused and makes time available on short notice, when you are in a crisis. I appreciate her professional, reliable but also empathetic manner.
