Dr. Ralf Albrecht
I was born in Jena in 1969, studied social work and did my doctorate at the FSU Jena on the topic of "Youth Culture and Rhythm". The basis of my counselling work is a 3-year training in systemic counselling and therapy/family therapy (DGSF).
I will gladly support you with appreciation, compassion, experiential knowledge, and professional expertise in managing your individual problem situation.

Sarah Loos
I am a social pedagogue (diploma) and integrative counselor (master). I was born in 1982 and grew up in Baden-Württemberg. Through studies and work I spent some time abroad - in countries like Israel, Canada and China. I have been living in Thuringia since 2022. In counseling sessions, I see people in a systemic context, focus on resource-activating work as well as on the person's experience of self-efficacy.
