Process
The first step - a non-binding meeting to get to know each other
After our initial contact, we will arrange a non-binding, free-of-charge meeting in which we can get to know each other a little better. Of course, you will also have the opportunity to ask questions or make comments. The conversation should take about 30 minutes. If the chemistry between us is right and you could imagine working together, we will make an appointment for the first session, either immediately or whenever you would like.
The first session - the beginning of your journey
You now describe your concerns to me in more detail. This may be an emotionally upsetting process for you. I offer you a protected setting. As your sparring partner I will listen to you attentively and without judgement. Everything can be, nothing has to be. Together we then take time to discuss the next steps and agree on a therapy or coaching plan.
A session lasts 60 minutes.
The further sessions - your itinerary
Should I support you as a Naturopath for Psychotherapy, our cooperation can evolve over a longer period of time. Mental and physical problems often have deep-seated causes that lie in the respective personality. It takes time to recognise these and to develop a healing way of dealing with them and to implement them in everyday life. In any case, it is important to me that you decide on the content, speed and the goal of our sessions.
Our sessions usually take place at a weekly interval. If necessary, however, we can also switch to a different, shorter or longer rhythm.
Depending on the goal you are aiming for, you may already have achieved the personal progress in coaching after one session or have received the impetus and motivation you desire. However, since you are most likely in a more difficult life situation, it usually takes a series of appointments of 3 to 5 or more sessions until you have strengthened your resources and your personal scope of experience and action has expanded.
Location
The sessions usually take place in my practice in Berlin.
Alternatively, we can also get together by arrangement via Zoom Meeting. You will receive a link from me in advance by email, which you can use to connect with me via video. I will be happy to explain the details to you in advance.
Separate arrangements shall apply to companies.
Fees
The fee for a psychotherapy session is € 90. Payment is made after invoicing.
Please note that my practice is a private or self-pay practice. Statutory health insurances do not usually cover the costs of psychotherapeutic counselling.
If you have private health insurance or private supplementary health insurance, they may cover all or part of the fee. Please clarify the possibilities of reimbursement in advance with your health insurance company.
Private billing could have the following advantages for you:
- Prompt and flexible appointments, even in the evenings or on Saturday mornings.
- There are no long waiting times.
- Anonymity outside my practice.
The fee for a coaching session is 150 € including
VAT at the current rate of 19%. Payment is made after invoicing.
Separate arrangements shall apply to companies.
Non-appearance fee
If you are unable to attend a session, please cancel at least 24 hours before our appointment. After that, or if you do not show up, I unfortunately have to charge the full hourly fee.
Social fee
If you are currently in a difficult social situation, we can agree on a so-called "Social fee".
On presentation of appropriate proof (example: ALG I or ALG II certificate), I offer you a 50% discount for the first 3 psychotherapy or coaching sessions to make things easier for you financially. You can find out more about this on the website www.soziales-honorar.de.
Therapy financing
For people who cannot afford psychotherapy or coaching for the moment because of financial reasons, there may be the possibility of financing through the initiative "Therapy Financing".
You can find out more about this on the website www.therapiefinanzierung.de.
