Background

About Makia Matheis

As a seasoned Mental Health Clinician at the International School of Hamburg, my focus lies in nurturing the psychological well-being of children and adolescents. With over ten years of dedicated experience in the field, I bring a deep understanding of trauma work, crisis intervention, and family therapy to my role. My approach is rooted in mindfulness and trauma-informed care, aiming to foster resilience and emotional growth within the school community. The competencies honed through my practice, which include Therapeutic Crisis Intervention and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, are integral to my mission of providing compassionate and effective mental health support. Partnering with educational professionals, we strive to create an environment that promotes social-emotional learning and supports the diverse needs of students and their families.
