My Services
I run a private practice and I only accept patients who are privately insured, eligible for subsidies or who pay for themselves. Psychotherapy is a treatment that aims to alleviate mental illness. During coaching, a counseling session takes place, the goal of which can be freely selected and does not have to be related to mental illness. I offer consultations in English, Germany or Russian.
Psychotherapy for privately insured persons
German private health insurances and subsidy providers typically cover most of the costs . It is best to clarify this with your insurance company beforehand.
Psychotherapy for self-payers
If you decide to pay yourself, this would have the additional advantage that the therapy could be started immediately without delay. In addition, there would be no need to report a diagnosis to your insurance company, which is advisable for people aspiring to become civil servants in Germany or purchase a life insurance.
Coaching
Unlike psychotherapy, coaching, in which no diagnosis is made, is not reimbursed by health insurance companies.
Couples Therapy
Couple therapy is counseling that affects two (relationship) partners. The aim here can be to improve communication or to look at conflicts from a new perspective.
Group Therapy
Therapy can also take place in a group of 6-8 people. The special thing about group therapy is that you are not alone in the therapy process, but rather as a team with like-minded people. Many people benefit greatly from realizing that they are not alone with their problems, but together with other people who are in exactly the same situation. Most people then experience the therapy group as an important pillar in the healing process, in which they are supported and accompanied not only by the therapist, but by the whole community. A group session lasts 100 minutes.
