1. General information for new patients
Below you will find general information for all major types of cost coverage:
- self-pay
- private health insurance
- statutory health insurance
Self-pay / direct payer
As a self-payer, you do not have to apply for your treatment. If, after our first get-to-know session, you decide to approach the therapy together with me, we can start immediately.
Unfortunately, the number of sessions required can never be predicted exactly in advance. I will discuss the diagnosis(es), my impressions and my treatment plan transparently with you. The costs per session are based on the current version of the “Gebührenordnung für Psychologische Psychotherapeuten und Kinder- und Jugendlichenpsychotherapeuten (GOP)”, which is fixed by law ("§ 9, Psychotherapeutengesetz from june 16th 1998 (BGBI. I S. 1311)".
Please note that couples therapy is always a self-pay service.
Privately insured patients
Application procedure for privately insured patients
Application process for privately insured patients
Psychotherapy is a treatment that is covered by all german private health insurance companies. The number of sessions covered by different insurance companies varies. Please contact your insurance company directly. Each private health insurance company also uses its own forms for the application procedure. Ask your insurance company to send these to you and, ideally, bring the forms with you to our first meeting to avoid a long application process.
German statutory health insurance
If you have a european or foreign health insurance, please contact your insurance company to aquire the necessary information for the application procedure.
Insurants of either Bahn-BKK or BKK-VBU
If you are insured with either Bahn-BKK or BKK-VBU, resp. mkk, your health insurance company will cover the full cost of the treatment.
The application process is uncomplicated and is approved in most cases.
All other german statutory health insurances
If you have a german statutory health insurance, you can still be treatet in a private practice. This is called "reimbursement procedure".
Below you will find all the necessary information for a successful claim for reimbursement.
Please do not be put off by the ammount of information.
You may not feel able to complete the application at the moment. Try to tackle each step in turn. Perhaps you can also break these down into smaller intermediate steps.
At the end of this page you can download the individual steps as a checklist and a template for your contact documentation. If you need help with the application, we can arrange an appointment. Please note, however, that all appointments that take place before the reimbursement is approved by your health insurance company, will not be reimbursed. Unfortunately, you have to bear the costs for this yourself.
Reimbursement procedure
If you have german statutory health insurance, you still have the option of applying for cost coverage in a private practice. This is called the "reimbursement procedure" (Kostenerstattungsverfahren) and is usually successful due to the poor supply situation in Berlin. However, there are some prerequisites for this. Please read the following information carefully and bring the required documents with you to our first meeting to avoid a long application pause or a rejection of your application.
Legal
"People with statutory health insurance are entitled to have the costs of treatment in a psychotherapeutic private practice reimbursed by their (german) health insurance company if no other treatment is possible. [...] This legal right exists according to § 13 paragraph 3 SGB V. [...] Health insurance companies may not refuse reimbursement for reasons that are not relevant to the claim. [...] Insured persons can have treatment in a private practice reimbursed by their health insurance company if treatment by a psychotherapist who is approved for billing with statutory health insurance is not possible. However, insured persons should clarify this with their health insurance company before treatment, advises the Federal Chamber of Psychotherapists (BPtK)."
The process
- Contact me to clarify whether I can offer you a treatment in the foreseeable future.
- First contact 10 to 15 psychotherapists who are registered with health insurance companies and ask for an appointment for a psychotherapeutic consultation and a treatment place. When you get an appointment, keep it.
- To prove that no treatment is possible within a reasonable time frame, log your calls (name of therapist, date and time you contacted and earliest possible treatment date, or direct cancellation, or no response). You can find a template at the bottom of this page.
- Before applying for the reimbursement procedure, you must have attended a psychotherapeutic consultation with a therapist who is licensed by the health insurance companies. There you will receive the form PTV11. If the therapist fills in here that he cannot treat you, but that further treatment is necessary and if he/she gives you an urgency- or referral code, you have the best chance that the application for reimbursement will be approved.
- You can use the urgency- or refferal code to arrange an appointment with a psychotherapist at the appointment service point. Please note that only a one-off appointment is arranged here, which may result in regular therapy, but does not have to. Acute therapy is very limited in time and is not a sufficient treatment in most cases.
- Inform your health insurance company in writing that, despite your best efforts, you have not been able to find a therapist with health insurance approval who could offer you a treatment within a reasonable time. Include your call log and ask your health insurer to place you with a mental health professional as soon as possible, or to approve the reimbursement request you will be making. Also enclose either the confirmation from the appointment service center that they were unable to arrange an appointment for you, or again the PTV11 form from the therapist who has been arranged for you, but who cannot treat you regularly.
- Then, after you have received an answer from your insurance company, we apply to your health insurance company for reimbursement of the costs treatment according to § 13 paragraph 3 SGB V.
- If, contrary to expectations, this application is not approved, we can file an objection together.
3. About myself

I offer cognitive behavioral psychotherapy (cbt) in an individual setting. With very few exceptions, I treat all psychological disorders. I also offer couples therapy and counseling (please note that couples therapy and counseling are always self-pay services).
Sessions can also take place online.
Therapeutic approach
On the one hand, my treatment style is characterized by the classic behavioral therapy attitude. That means that, among other things, clear communication, a transparent approach at eye level and scientifically proven treatment methods are decisive.
When it comes to my personal attitude, openness, looking at the person beyond the diagnosis, calmness and amenability are important to me.
Treatment
I offer behavioral psychotherapy for adults in individual sessions. In addition to common mental illnesses, I also treat the following areas of complaint:
- Addiction disorders (when abstinence has already been achieved)
- Harmful use of alcohol and drugs
- Pathological gambling
- Pathological media consumption
