Laura Grisar
Psychologist (M.A.)
Somatic Therapist (Pantarei Approach, Craniosacral Therapy)
Hello there!
Happy you found your way to my homepage. Life can be incredibly beautiful - and also it can bring unexpected challenges, pain and complexities. Sometimes we feel overwhelmed by it, or even lose ourselves. In my sessions I want to offer you company, warmth and clarity in times of struggle - and discover together your unique way of finding your meaning, growth and empowerment. Life contains all colours - dark ones, and light ones, and I believe by giving space to all these, your, colours, you can become to feel more whole.
I’m Laura - a trained clinical psychologist, composer and somatic therapist according to the Pantarei Approach in Berlin. I believe, that we humans have so much more potential in us than we actually live. I want to accompany you to set free what wants to live and be alive in you! In your unique way.
Growing up in Freiburg, I soon encountered my two great passions: The exploration of the human soul and music! So I went to Berlin to study psychology and gradually gain a foothold as a composer. Due to my high sensitivity, I repeatedly experienced great challenges and went in search of perspectives and methods that would support me. I came across the Pantarei Approach, a body-oriented method that wonderfully complemented the psychological knowledge from my studies.
You might profit from my sessions if you…

Pantarei Approach
This approach is alive and energised by flow, presence and a lively communication in which we meet at eye level. We work seated and then on the table with hands-on, and together with your wise body we discover your unique resources that support you in navigating your life and moving in the direction of your dreams and goals. An activating process to be more alive in the ups and downs of intense life and still be in control of the sail in stormy times!
Craniosacral Work
Craniosacral work has its origins in osteopathy and uses gentle touch to help balance the body's systems and activate the body's self-healing powers. In times of high stress or strain, this is a wonderful method to support the body and nervous system in finding its centre again. This is an approach that works in a gentle, yet very deep and efficient way. Like a reset for the body and soul!
How I work
It is important to me to see you as a person with your unique resources and to work out together at eye level with a lot of empathy, humor, appreciation and authenticity how you can use your resources more in your life. I’d also like to involve your body and your emotions, which hold important information. In hands-on-sessions I work with touch to connect you with your body and discover what it communicates.
As a highly sensitive person, I have experienced and survived a number of crises in my life, and body-oriented and trauma-therapeutic approaches have helped me in particular. I am happy to pass on this experience and knowledge.
I also enjoy working with artists who feel blocked - here, too, I have accumulated a lot of knowledge from my own experience, which I am happy to pass on. Getting to know your individual personality and working with your very own gifts and abilities is particularly important to me.
