English-speaking Therapy
in Berlin & Online
Welcome to Innershift Space – a place for personal and educational growth.
My name is Ioana. I was born in Romania and moved to Germany in 2010, together with my mother and sister. Arriving in a new country came with many challenges: learning a new language, adapting to a different culture and mindset, and building a sense of home far away from everything familiar.
I am a licensed therapist based in Berlin-Lichtenberg, qualified as Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie*, a legally recognized credential in Germany that allows me practice psychotherapy independently.
I offer individual sessions in person in Berlin and online, for clients based anywhere.
* German Heilpraktiker law for psychotherapy
Today, more than 16 years after this new beginning, I follow what feels deeply meaningful to me:
Creating a space where people can reconnect with themselves without judgment – exactly where they are, with everything they carry.
Therapy Services (HeilprG)
Therapy is not only for crisis situations. Sometimes, what brings people to therapy sounds like:
Do you recognize yourself in some of these experiences? Let’s talk!
Together, we can explore what is currently present in your life and whether I can support you in your process.
And if I feel that another specialist would suit your needs better, I will gladly support you in finding the suitable professional.
Educational & Career Counseling
“What do you want to do with your life?”
You may be very familiar with this question and you may still not have a clear answer.
Perhaps you feel that your current job is no longer fulfilling, or you are drawn towards a different path but don’t know where to begin.
Having these thoughts is not a sign of failure. They are often the beginning of curiosity or growth.
In educational counseling sessions, we can explore:

Courses & Workshops on Emotional Competencies
In an increasingly automated world, it is precisely our emotional competencies that make us irreplaceable.
The fear of an ever-changing world and of being replaced by artificial intelligence is understandable. However, these changes encourage us to strengthen exactly what makes us human.
I offer courses and workshops – both individually designed and for companies – focusing on topics including:
How I work
(Methods & Approach)
Person-centred therapy (Carl Rogers)
We meet exactly where you are right now. Your values, opinions and perspective on life are at the centre of our work together. They form the foundation of the entire process.
Resource-oriented approach
We identify what gives you strength, stability and energy in your everyday life.
Resources can be both internal and external: they help create grounding, open new perspectives and are unique for every individual. These inner and outer resources become your compass one that stays with you long after our work together has ended.
Imaginative exercises
Which you can also practice independently to discover inner places that provide calm and safety during difficult times.
Imagination can also help generate positive thoughts and allow future possibilities to become emotionally and physically tangible.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Exercises inspired by ACT can support you in exploring your inner emotional landscape and learning to accept yourself in the present moment, exactly as you are.
From that place, change gains space to unfold naturally.
