Private 1:1 Off-Switch programme · Ugis Strauss
Private 1:1 work with Ugis
You can explain the pattern. Then the conversation starts, the journey begins or the working day refuses to end. Work directly with me on the reaction, with each next step chosen from what actually happens between our meetings.
A complimentary 45-minute conversation about your situation, what you have tried and whether working together makes sense. The conversation does not commit you to the work.

Your private sessions with Ugis Strauss
My private work began more than 15 years ago. Here, you work directly with me: I teach you the method, choose the next step with you and check what changes in your life.

Situations you can work on in private sessions
- 01
You know you want to say no. In the conversation, you hear yourself agreeing.
- 02
You finish work, but your mind keeps going. The day is over only on the calendar.
- 03
You feel calm about a situation until you actually have to face it.
- 04
One part of life becomes easier. The same reaction still turns up somewhere else.
- 05
The fear is quieter, but there is still a decision to make, a boundary to set or a skill to learn.
Individual case · client-maintained tracker
The road became part of ordinary life again
After a panic episode, this client could drive only roughly five miles beyond the city. The work first addressed the wider pressure he was carrying, then the road incident itself. He tested the change in imagination and through real journeys of 15, 100 and 200 miles over 90 days.

Your practice. My direction.
How private sessions and independent practice work together
You do not have to work out the sequence on your own. I teach the technique, help choose what to work on and adjust the next step from what happens between our meetings. The programme includes structured work through your emotional history, not only the first problem you bring.
More about the technique →
- 01
Learn the tool
In the first meeting, I teach you the hand position and slow bilateral movement you will use with a memory, worry or physical reaction. You then have a tool to practise yourself.
- 02
Choose what to work on
We choose a particular situation, memory or worry and check how strongly you react to it before and after using the technique. That gives us something specific to work with.
- 03
Test the change
Between meetings, you practise and test what happens in a real conversation, drive, night of sleep or decision. Can you do what the reaction used to prevent? A job, relationship or practical problem may still need attention; reducing the reaction does not make those decisions for you.
- 04
Review what has not changed and adjust the next step
At the next meeting, we look at where the work got stuck. Was the target too much to begin with? Is a different part of the situation setting off the response? My job is to work out where the process failed and adjust the next step—not simply tell you to keep trying.
1:1 or group
Do you want private meetings or a group programme?
Private 1:1 work
Your meetings and next steps are built around your situation. Ugis chooses and adjusts what you work on, in what order, from what happens between your sessions.
Group
Ugis leads the group through a shared sequence. You apply the method to your own memories, worries and reactions, with independent practice between meetings.

The format in brief
Can I start now?
Yes. Start with a conversation about what keeps happening, what you have tried and whether private work makes sense for you.
How long is the programme?
12 private 1:1 Zoom sessions over three to four months. Each session lasts 60–90 minutes, with independent practice between sessions.
What happens between meetings?
Allow 30–60 minutes a day for independent practice. You work with the situations and memories agreed in the meeting, then notice what happens when you encounter them again. What changes, and what still needs work, helps Ugis plan your next session.
What if I need more work after the 12 sessions?
The programme includes 12 private sessions. If there is more to work on after those sessions, you can continue independently with the method you have learned, or continue working with Ugis under a separate arrangement.
Next step
First determine whether 1:1 fits
You do not need a perfectly organised explanation. Tell Ugis what keeps happening and what you have already tried. Together, you can consider whether this is the right way to work on it.
