Therapeutic Counselling

I’m an AuDHD and cross-cultural counsellor living and working over 20 years in Zurich with over 10 years experience supporting an adults with mental health problems, ADHD, Autism, or both AuDHD, and high sensitivity, including queerness—as well as individuals exploring identity, gender and belonging in cross-cultural or multicultural contexts. Together, we explore what helps you regulate — building inner safety and practical systems. E.g. manage your energy, anxiety, anger and daily life, move forward with (hyper) focus, thrive with clarity, and boundaries that feel right for you and let you live with more flow and confidence.

My approach is Integrative and person-centred, deeply respectful of all gender identities and sexual orientations, and grounded in your lived experience.

I work online and in room in Zurich, as well online in United Kingdom/UK: England, Schottland, Wales, Ireland, USA and Canada, Scandinavia, Australia, Netherland, Belgium, etc. 

Sessions are in Deutsch, English and Srpskohrvatski.

Tatjana Hartmann (she/her)

AuDHD Cross-Cultural Therapy and Wellbeing Coach

The experiences we carry — identity or family history — shape how we live, connect, and make sense of the world. Whether these experiences come from you want to start, but you can’t, feel task paralysis/procrastination, or growing up in environments that didn’t understand your avoidance-driven anxiety, or mentally, physically, and emotionally tiredness from hiding/masking who you truly are — they all leave an imprint. You struggle with emotional regulation: anger or fear, organisation, imposter syndrome, consistent follow-through, making choices; wish to replace shame and self-blame with understanding and compassion. You might be wanting to build stability and belonging, or simply need a clearer structure that supports your way of thinking, living and feeling. Or you may be seeking to understand overwhelm by stress, noise, light, touch, emotions, perfectionism, or the freeze response: mind goes blank, feeling stuck or spaced out from yourself and the world. Wherever you are, we start from where you are. 

Fully healing from symptoms is wholly possible.

I can support you to remove blockages, burnout/completely exhausted mentally, physically, and emotionally, meltdown/involuntary behavioral (e.g. intense crying, screaming, hitting, lashing out, or running away)shutdown/completely crash (e.g. stopping speech or using few words, sitting still or lying down, moving from people or hearing others but being unable to concentrate or reply), decision paralysis, find clarity, manage energy and daily life, move with (hyper) focus and thrive with boundaries that feel right for you, letting you live with more flow and confidence.

You can move forward, achieve your dreams, live a life that authentically reflects your deepest desires, values, needs and wants and, do so with internal peace. Together, we explore what helps you regulate — building inner safety and practical systems.

I can share with you 10+ years worth of practical tools and knowledge working with Neurodivergent (ADHD, Autistic, or both AuDHD), (complex) traumatised and people from different countries. I work solution-oriented — combining deep emotional awareness with clear, grounded steps forward. We can strengthen your capacity to live a life that reflects who you are and what truly matters to you.

I speak German at a native-level, English fluently and Serbo-Croatian is my native language.
