Ursula Frey, born in Stuttgart in 1946, worked for many years as a Protestant deacon and religious educator. After further training in pastoral care and counseling, she was appointed as a hospital chaplain and worked mainly in the oncology department of a large children's hospital. This time was a particularly formative experience for her and a matter close to her heart. Today she works as a non-medical practitioner for psychotherapy in her own practice. Having trained as a Journal Writing Therapist (writing coach), she has expanded her passion for writing professionally and offers biographical and therapeutic writing courses. Getting to know writing as a healing force means: Finding pleasure in writing, discovering and strengthening your own resources, immersing yourself in writing spaces, finding a place of well-being - together with others, transforming words. Previous experience is not required. Ursula Frey is married and has three grown-up children.
