Step One

Initial Consultation & Booking

Ready to begin? Great! Just reach out via phone or email to briefly describe your concern. We’ll schedule your first consultation – usually within 1-2 weeks.

  • 50 minutes
  • Covered by insurance
  • 1-2 weeks wait time

What happens

  • Contact via phone or email to briefly describe your concern
  • We schedule a free 50-minute initial consultation
  • Usually arranged within 1-2 weeks of your first contact
  • Bring your health insurance card and any questions you have
  • This is a no-obligation, judgment-free first meeting

Step TWO

Consultation(s) & Probatory Sessions

In 2-5 consultations we get to know each other. You tell me your story, and together we clarify whether therapy makes sense and what approach fits you best.
  • 50 minutes each
  • Covered by insurance
  • 2 - 5 sessions

What we'll do

  • Understand your unique situation and challenges
  • Define clear, achievable therapy goals together
  • Determine the right therapeutic approach for you
  • Discuss practical matters (frequency, insurance coverage)
  • You decide if the chemistry feels right – no pressure to continue

Step THREE

Application & Insurance Approval

If we both agree therapy is the right path, I’ll submit the cost coverage application to your insurance. You don’t need to do anything – I handle everything.
  • Your role: none
  • Process automatic
  • 3 - 4 weeks

How it works

  • I submit a detailed application to your health insurance
  • Insurance reviews the request (typically takes 3-4 weeks)
  • You receive official approval notification automatically
  • You don't need to do anything – I handle all the paperwork
  • Therapy can officially begin once approved

Step FOUR

Start of Psychotherapy

Once insurance approves, we begin regular weekly sessions (typically 50 minutes each). Together we work on your goals—structured, practical, and at your pace.
  • Weekly: 50 minutes
  • Covered by insurance
  • 6 - 18 months

What to expect

  • Weekly 50-minute sessions at a consistent time each week
  • Structured work on your personal goals at your own pace
  • Regular progress reviews and adjustments as needed
  • 70-80% of clients experience significant, lasting improvement
  • Safe, confidential space with evidence-based therapeutic methods

Frequently asked Questions

The initial consultation lasts 50 minutes and serves for mutual getting to know each other. You tell me about your concerns, and I explain my way of working. Together we clarify whether therapeutic cooperation makes sense. The conversation is non-binding for you and is already covered by health insurance.

Yes, as a licensed psychotherapist with health insurance accreditation, costs are covered by all statutory and private health insurance companies. After the probationary sessions, I apply for cost coverage from your insurance company. You only need to bring your insurance card.
Yes, psychotherapy is always voluntary. You can end treatment at any time. Ideally, we discuss it together if you’re considering termination, so we can clarify the reasons and possibly arrange a good closing session.
The duration varies depending on the problem and therapy goal. Short-term therapy comprises 25 hours (about 6 months), long-term therapy up to 60 hours (about 1.5 years). Extensions are possible if needed. Together we decide what scope makes sense for you.
Yes, absolutely. As a psychotherapist, I’m bound by confidentiality. Everything you confide in me remains between us. Only in a few legally defined exceptional cases (e.g., danger to self or others) may this confidentiality be broken – but then only after consultation with you.
