Psychotherapy and Counselling in English
Although we are not native English speakers, we appreciate working with people from different countries and cultures and we realize the importance of offering counselling in English to Berlins' international inhabitants. We are psychologists that have been trained in Behavioural Therapy.
Combining methods of different schools, pursuing a so-called integrative approach to therapy, is a characteristic of our work. However there are situations in life where certain symptoms seem to dominate the entire life, such as phobic symptoms, social fears, excessive eating or alcohol abuse can do. In these instances behavioural therapy can be very helpful and productive suggesting concrete steps that we can take to reduce the symptoms. Though our focus is Behavioural Therapy, it's always the individual strengths and resources that we are looking for and working with.

Limitations of psychotherapy in private office
- For people with acute suicidal tendencies, an acute psychotic episode or eating disturbances in a critical physical condition, an ambulant psychotherapy is not adequate. In this case a stationary treatment in a psychiatric hospital is necessary.
- People with acute substance abuse issues need a stationary detoxification and treatment program, before an ambulant psychotherapy can take place.
