Individual therapy

Schema therapy is based on the assumption that each of us has developed emotional patterns, or “schemas”, that arose in childhood and influence our experience and behavior into adulthood. These schemas can lead us to become caught again and again in unhealthy behaviors and relationship patterns.

Through schema therapy you can learn to recognise and understand these patterns. Together we examine the unmet core needs that lie behind these schemas and find out how they still influence your life today.

Another important part of schema therapy is recognising and changing the so-called “modes”. Modes are different coping patterns (for example submission, avoidance or compensation) that can lead to unfavourable reactions in interaction with others and can reinforce one’s own negative thoughts and feelings.

Our goal in schema therapy is to help you recognise your schemas and modes, understand your unmet core needs and develop healthier behavioral alternatives.

Our therapists are trained according to the guidelines of the International Society of Schema Therapy (ISST) at the Schema Therapy Institute Frankfurt and offer you empathetic and professional support on your path of self-discovery and change. If you are ready to understand your emotional patterns and to pursue positive changes in your life, we warmly invite you to register for a session with us.

Behavioral therapy offers a wide range of advantages:

In our practice we rely on a scientifically grounded approach by integrating mindfulness and self-compassion into our therapy. Numerous studies have demonstrated the positive effects of mindfulness and self-compassion on mental health.

The practice of mindfulness has been shown to reduce stress, improve emotional regulation and increase overall well-being. Mindfulness exercises foster the ability to be present in the current moment and to accept one’s own thoughts and feelings without judgement.

At the same time, research has shown that self-compassion plays a decisive role in promoting self-acceptance, resilience and psychological well-being. The ability to meet oneself with kindness and compassion helps to reduce self-criticism and to develop a supportive inner dialogue.

By integrating mindfulness and self-compassion into our therapy, we offer you an evidence-based treatment that aims to bring about lasting positive changes in your life. Our therapists are specially trained and experienced in these areas and look forward to accompanying you on your journey of self-discovery and healing. Experience the scientifically proven effect of mindfulness and self-compassion and discover your inner strength and resilience.

In our practice we offer you an effective treatment method using Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help you cope with traumatic experiences. Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is a specialised method that aims to process and change distressing thoughts and feelings connected with the trauma.

Through CPT you learn to identify distressing beliefs and to replace them with more realistic and healthier thoughts. Our experienced therapists accompany you in a safe space in order to ease the effects of the trauma and to pave your way to a stronger and more resilient sense of self. If you are ready to engage with your past and to find new hope for the future, you are in the right place with us. Let us begin the healing process together.
