Your path to change
Psychotherapy and coaching in Cologne privately
In my private practice in Cologne, I offer customized psychotherapy . As a licensed psychotherapist, I work with cognitive behavioral therapy , a scientifically based method that helps you recognize and change stressful thought patterns. Together, we develop solution-oriented strategies for your everyday life. With a focus on emotions and relationships, I offer space for understanding and new perspectives. The goal is to understand yourself better and find your path to greater fulfillment – supported by psychotherapy and coaching.


Online psychotherapy – flexible support where you need it
Online psychotherapy offers location-independent, flexible support —ideal for times of stress, limited time, or limited mobility. In confidential video sessions, I will guide you on the path to concrete solutions using proven behavioral therapy methods. The quality is comparable to traditional practice.
Costs: How is billing done?
I work with private health insurance companies and with self-payers. Billing is handled monthly through a private medical billing office (PVS). Your consent to data sharing is required; I will explain this in detail during the initial consultation.
Privately insured?
The costs are usually covered by your insurance. Please clarify in advance what services are covered.
Statutory insured?
Unfortunately, I cannot bill statutory health insurance providers. However, you can pay for your treatment yourself. Fees are based on the German Fee Schedule for Psychotherapists (GOP).
