Sometimes everything changes – suddenly from one day to the next, or gradually over months and years. People lose their home, their language, their sense of direction. Not only on the outside, but also within. Familiar structures break away, and life as it once was feels out of reach.

Whether through flight, migration, violence, or other severe experiences – many people carry memories that estrange them from themselves and from their life story. It can feel as if one has fallen out of their own life. You keep functioning – perhaps. But the connection is missing, the inner grounding, the sense of truly being present.

In such moments, spaces are needed where healing and reorientation become possible – in a way that preserves dignity, enables stability, and places humanity at the center.

In Germany, many people live with experiences of displacement, migration, or burdensome transitions. They often find themselves in complex life situations – shaped by insecurity, bureaucratic challenges, cultural shifts, or traumatic experiences.

These challenges complicate not only everyday life, but often also integration. Because integration is more than learning a language or adapting to practical structures. For those coming from difficult contexts, inner support is also needed – stability, orientation, and sometimes psychological assistance, to be able to truly arrive in a new life.

The offerings below were developed precisely with this in mind: they provide support for everyday stabilization, relief, and guidance for new orientation. At the heart of it all are dignity, self-determination, and the strengthening of inner resources.

The counseling sessions and workshops take place at Pangea House in Wilmersdorf and, if needed, can also be conducted in Russian or German.
