English-speaking therapist in Switzerland for Women
Hi, I’m Franziska Teo-Hunkemöller, a Swiss-licensed psychotherapist, mom and expat.
Right now I live between Malaysia and Switzerland with my husband and our two little kids, which is both an adventure and a challenge.
I work online, in German and English, with women in Switzerland and internationally. I truly love what I do because I know from personal experience how impactful good therapy can be.
The curiosity about why people do what they do, and the desire to truly connect with and understand others, has always been a big part of what draws me to this work.
“It actually doesn't take much to be considered a difficult woman. That's why there are so many of us.”

How I work as a therapist
I’m warm, direct and curious in my work. I want you to feel comfortable enough to be honest, while also feeling that we’re actually getting somewhere.
One of my strengths is noticing patterns - the things that keep coming up in how you think, feel, relate and respond to the world around you. Together, we make sense of these patterns and explore what might need to change.
I also believe that therapy needs to be pragmatic and practical. We won’t stop at the understanding of a problem but also focus on tools and solutions.
