Services
My practice is for adults: privately insured patients, those entitled to public-sector medical allowance (Beihilfe), and self-paying clients.
Psychotherapy – what is psychodynamic therapy?
Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a scientifically recognised treatment method whose effectiveness is well documented, and whose practice requires thorough training as well as continuous methodological development. It proceeds from the understanding that current difficulties are often connected to unconscious inner conflicts and to relational patterns formed early in life. In therapeutic conversation we develop a shared understanding of how these patterns came about and how they show themselves today in everyday life, in relationships and in your experience. Unlike purely symptom-oriented approaches, psychodynamic work addresses not only the management of individual complaints but the connections lying behind them – with the aim of making lasting change possible through genuine understanding.
ADHD assessment for adults
Structured assessment where adult ADHD is suspected – using recognised diagnostic instruments, a detailed history, and a concluding written report. This service is available in German as well as in English.
Counselling
For professional and personal life crises. Counselling offers an accessible first point of contact: together we first look at your concern without preconceptions and clarify what kind of support might make sense – which includes orientation about other specialist fields and available forms of care, so that you can ask questions not only about yourself but also about the healthcare system. Should a need for psychotherapy or coaching emerge from this, we will consider together whether to continue along that path or whether a different offer would suit you better.
Counselling for relatives
Counselling for people who have someone close to them – in the family, a partnership or a circle of friends – affected by mental illness or crisis. The focus is on understanding the condition and on possible ways of relating and offering support, so that you can feel more secure and better informed in that contact, and so that being together becomes easier.
Coaching
Are you facing a specific professional or personal question that you would like to work on in a focused way? In coaching we actively develop approaches to your concern together – unlike counselling, this is not only about initial orientation but about concrete next steps. Coaching is not a medical treatment and does not replace psychotherapy.
