Christina Schwendeler is an Australian born Clinical Psychologist providing individual psychological intervention. Christina established Aware Psychology in 2022 with the vision to provide psychological support to the growing migrant community, with the reassurance of uniquely connecting with clients in English. Overtime she has also come to support people of Swiss German origin and holds sessions in Swiss German as well as English.
Christina provides a space for clients to feel comfortable and safe to explore the self, using evidence based psychological treatment programs. She has a compassionate and collaborative approach to clinical psychology and draws from the following theories and therapies in her practice:
Internal Family Systems, EMDR, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness and Meditation, Attachment Theory, Mind-Body Techniques and Neuroscience.
6 years ago Christina moved to Switzerland with her family to the town of Wangen SZ. Christina brings wisdom and experience to the journey of migration and integration: it is as exciting as it is challenging, a process that occurs over years as it continues to find ways to challenge the mind, body and soul.
Christina is registered with the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency (AHPRA#PSY0001339672), the Föderation der Schweizer Psychologinnen und Psychologen (FSP#118210) and the Verband der Innerschwyzer Psychologinnen und Psychologen (VIPP).
Christina lives with her partner and their 2 children (11 and 14 years). As all families they face challenges and triggers. Through kindness, respect and compassion they strengthen their relationships.
Christina loves dance, music and being in nature and believes in the intra connection of all beings. She practises and experiments with the science of meditation in her personal life, expanding beyond traditional mediums.
