Welcome to our Center for Psychotherapy and Self-Determination

Sometimes in life we reach points where it becomes difficult to continue on our own. Perhaps something in your environment has changed, distressing symptoms are weighing on you, or an inner conflict has thrown you off balance. You may also find that something has not felt right for a long time, and you are wondering what to do with this realization.
We would like to offer you a safe and supportive space in which to regain clarity and direction.

We work with you empathically and as equals on your individual challenges and life concerns.

For us, self-determined therapy means taking your wishes and boundaries into account when planning the therapeutic process.

A sensitive awareness of discrimination and power dynamics—including those between therapist and client—is very important to us.

We offer:

  • Individual psychotherapy
  • Couples and family therapy
  • Polyamory and relationship counselling
  • Assessment for gender dysphoria
  • Transition-related therapeutic support
  • Psychological coaching
  • Conflict mediation

Further information on the process, fees, and financing can be found here.

Procedure and costs

Individual therapy usually takes place once a week (50 minutes). Less frequent sessions can also be arranged upon request. During times of crisis, two sessions per week are possible.

For couples, relationship, polyamory, and family counselling, as well as conflict mediation and psychological coaching, the frequency and duration of sessions are tailored individually.

We charge according to the official psychotherapist fee schedule.

As we do not have a contract with public health insurance, we cannot bill statutory health insurers directly.
If you are publicly insured, you can use the reimbursement procedure (“Kostenerstattungsverfahren”).
You may also choose to cover the costs yourself or apply for coverage through your private health insurance (and/or government aid).

We are happy to assist you with this process!

If you are interested in working with us, please contact us by email.

We look forward to getting to know you!

If you are in acute distress, please contact the Berlin Crisis Service (Berliner Krisendienst) or the emergency room of the psychiatric clinic in your district.
If you are afraid of harming yourself or someone else, please contact the emergency services by calling 112.
