Feel free to ask me for further details about availabilities and financial support (ie reimbursement of costs). I am happy to help you out. More info: https://www.psychotherapeutensuche.de/en/psychotherapy/cost-coverage-for-psychotherapy/reimburcement-of-cost-kostenvergleich/


PROCESS & COSTS
INITIAL CONSULTATION
If you are considering starting psychotherapy, please inquire beforehand about coverage by your private health insurance or public service health benefits. Please schedule an initial consultation at my practice during telephone consultation hours or by email. In this first meeting, we will have ample time to discuss your concerns, current symptoms, and your expectations for therapy. I will then provide you with an initial diagnostic assessment based on the symptoms you describe. Finally, we will discuss the next steps together and possible follow-up appointments.
COSTS
The cost of psychotherapy is based on the German fee schedule for psychotherapists (GOP) and amounts to €131.15 per 50-minute initial consultation and €131.15 per 50-minute cognitive behavioral therapy session. In individual cases, however, additional payments may be required (e.g., for initiating psychotherapy, biographical history, or diagnostic testing). Please inquire about the terms and conditions of your private health insurance policy beforehand. Supplementary health insurance typically covers 50% of the therapy costs. If you choose to pay for therapy yourself, it will not be recorded with your insurance company. In any case, you will be billed monthly. Payment is due within 14 days.
Statutory health insurance companies only cover the costs via a reimbursement procedure . I charge an €80 processing fee for an initial consultation. If you have any questions about the application process, please contact me by email before booking an appointment.
The cost of couples therapy is €153 for 50 minutes and €250 for 90 minutes. After an initial consultation, I recommend committing to at least five sessions. The costs for couples counseling/therapy are not covered by health insurance.
CANCELLATION FEE
Pre-arranged appointments are considered binding. If no cancellation is received 48 hours prior to the scheduled appointment, I reserve the right to charge a cancellation fee of €80. Appointments can be cancelled by phone or email.
Psychotherapy can be claimed for tax purposes as an extraordinary expense under "other health expenses" within the limits of reasonable financial burden.

During my training as a psychotherapist, I became familiar with both the classic treatment approaches of cognitive behavioral therapy and gained insight into diverse methods from other therapeutic approaches (systemic therapy, psychodynamic therapy, family constellations), which continue to enrich my practice and allow me to take a holistic view of my patients and my treatment methods.

Further training in Jacobson's relaxation therapy, autogenic training

WORKING GROUP KETAMIN-ASSISTED PSYCHOTHERAPY
SINCE 2021
In psychotherapy, the psychedelic effect of psychoactive substances serves as a gateway to altered states of consciousness, enabling a retreat of ego awareness and allowing new neuronal connections to form through neuroplasticity.
Ketamine can deepen psychotherapeutic processes, making it easier to resolve rigid patterns of behavior and thought. Member of MIND FOUNDATION and Mental Health Section MIND FOUNDATION
Dhamma Dvāra Vipassana Meditation
SINCE 2023
Vipassana is one of the oldest forms of meditation, originating in Buddhism. It aims to achieve profound self-knowledge through observing one's breath and bodily sensations. Vipassana literally translates as "clear insight" and focuses on seeing reality as it truly is, without being influenced by preconceived notions or desires. It is an intensive practice that requires patience and perseverance, but many people report positive changes in their lives through the regular practice of Vipassana.
