Private Practice for Dermatology, Psychotherapy, and Psychodermatology

Psychotherapy

My focus is on depth psychology-based (internationally: dynamic) psychotherapy, based on psychoanalytic pathology.

Depth psychology-based psychotherapy is scientifically recognised, has a wide range of applications and is highly relevant in the treatment of mental illness.

It is used to treat many mental and psychosomatic illnesses. These include anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, adjustment disorders, stress reactions, eating disorders, personality disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorders, as well as other illnesses.

Your individual needs are at the forefront; i.e., the focus is on your current mental health issues, symptoms and conflicts.

At the beginning, appropriate therapy goals are agreed upon together, which can be adjusted during the course of therapy if necessary.

In a pleasant atmosphere, the dynamics of psychotherapeutic dialogue are used to gain access to unconscious inner processes.

The therapies are limited in time, which is why the focus is on the most important conflicts that are causing you distress.

Behavioural therapy measures and elements of schema therapy (including imagination exercises, mode model and chair dialogues) are integrated into the treatment as needed.

Sessions usually take place once a week (50 minutes).

Costs and billing

  • Please note that the practice is run as a private and self-pay practice.
  • Before starting treatment, please check your insurance conditions or your corresponding insured tariff with your private health insurance company so that you can obtain any necessary application documents. Billing is based on the German Scale of Medical Fees (GOÄ) at 2.3 to 3.5 times the standard rate; billing is based on the services provided in each individual case.
  • It is possible that the costs will not be covered in full by your insurance company and that you will be required to pay a co-payment.
  • Statutory health insurance companies only cover the costs of therapy in (rare) exceptional cases as part of a cost reimbursement procedure if no other therapy place is available. If necessary, this can be checked separately by the statutory health insurance company.

An important prerequisite for treatment is that you are willing and motivated to undergo therapy.
