Private practice in Seewis Dorf


My approach is holistic, focused on your resources. We aim at understanding the origin of our behavior by reflecting our thoughts and feelings. We then bring this insight into the here-and-now in order to develop new behavior and coping patterns. We do this by focusing on the life`s opportunities and strengths in the face of challenges. If necessary, I incorporate elements from yoga and other complementary approaches in order to strengthen the holistic aspect of the consultation. In this way, insights and changes can be anchored on a mental, emotional and physical level.

PSYCHOLOGICAL PSYCHOTHERAPY

Psychological psychotherapy is indicated when there is a so-called F-diagnosis. This can be, for example, a moderately severe depressive episode, in which case the diagnosis F32.1 is given. Panic attacks can also be an indication for an F diagnosis. In the case of a panic disorder, the F-diagnosis F41.0 is given.

People who seek psychological psychotherapy usually come to me with the following issues:

fear, anxiety

stress related bodily symptoms

strong emotions such as aggression and anger

burnout

difficulties memories, experiences

complex trauma

high sensitivity

depressive symptoms

grief

Often the issues and concerns are not very different from those of psychological counseling. Rather, the difference lies in the degree of severity. People who take advantage of psychological psychotherapy notice, for example, that their ability to work and maintain a daily structure are severely restricted by the topic at hand.

As part of the initial consultation, we can clarify whether psychological psychotherapy or psychological counseling is an option for you.

The foundations of my work are acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and somatic-oriented approaches. I tailor the focus to my clients` needs, as every person is unique and needs different methods and impulses.

FAQ

Do you treat F-diagnoses?

Yes. In my practice in Seewis Dorf I also offer therapy for F-diagnoses.

What about your cancellation policy?

Things happen in everyday life That is understandable. Appointments can therefore be canceled up to 24 hours before the agreed time free of charge. Missed appointments and appointments canceled at short notice will be charged in full.

What do I do when questions arise in between the sessions?

That depends on the scope of the question and my availability. If I am not traveling I will usually answer within 24 hours. Questions that require a more detailed answer are discussed during the individual sessions. It can be helpful to write down your question right away and bring it up during the next session.

How much time do I have to invest in between the sessions?

That is very individual. In general, I recommend that you also deal with your concerns between the individual sessions. In this way, new impulses can grow. It doesn’t take much: keep a feeling or gratitude diary for 3 minutes a day, consciously face a a challenge during the day, go for a 20-minute daily walk.

What if I need more than 50 minutes for one session?

Double sessions are possible. Ask me about options. 

How long does a counseling period last?

This is also very individual. It is my aim to foster your self-efficacy and self-trust, where you lead a happy and content life independently. How many one-on-one meetings it takes to get there is very different for each person. Sometimes 2-3 conversations can be sufficient and clarifying. It is not uncommon for weekly discussions to be helpful for a certain period of time. In the final phase, we often plan longer intervals between appointments. Some of my clients benefit from sporadic refresher appointments even after the sessions are concluded. We will tailor this to your needs.

Are therapy sessions covered by basic insurance?

In many cases, therapy sessions can be billed via supplementary insurance. I do not bill through basic insurance.
