Online consultation

Psychological Counseling &
Coaching online

Online advice is available quickly and regardless of location, especially in times of crisis!

Maybe you are looking for classic “on-site therapy” and would like direct person-to-person contact, but the current situation does not allow you to visit a practice regularly.

Perhaps leaving your familiar surroundings is currently not possible due to severe psychological stress, but you would like to start working on that.

Maybe you have a busy schedule and would like to save on travel time. Maybe you live on the other side of the world and are looking for a companion in your familiar language.

Maybe you are in a long-distance relationship and need support as a couple, but going to a local practice together is very difficult to manage in terms of time.

No problem, I'll get to where you are via video!

What online advice can do

In an initial consultation, we will clarify whether the online format is suitable and sufficient for your concerns.

I have been working regularly with individuals, couples and up to 4 people online for more than 5 years and it works wonderfully.

Thanks to modern online communication systems, advice can take place via computer or smartphone, making it a practical companion in your everyday life. Be it in an individual setting, as a couple or an entire family, online counseling can be used in all areas.

In some cases, online therapy can also pave the way for therapy in practice and, after a certain period of time, be transferred to traditional on-site psychotherapy. Mixed forms, i.e. a combination of sessions in practice and online, are also possible.

No matter where you are in the world, whether you are at home or away, or perhaps you are physically or mentally unable to attend a practice, sessions can take place on a regular basis. Interactive, with images and sound.

Suitable topics for online consultation:

relationship problems
anxiety
Burnout & stress

Acute crises with self-harming behavior, risk of suicide, danger to others, etc.

Technology & Safety

The basic requirement for online therapy is an active internet connection and a computer or smartphone with a camera and microphone. In order to best ensure confidentiality and data security, I use the following services/apps:

RED Medical System is a GDPR-certified provider of video consultations in the medical-therapeutic sector.

You don't need to download an app, I will send you an invitation link by email and we will start the session at the agreed time.

FaceTime is the integrated video calling function in the Apple iPhone. This connection is end-to-end encrypted, ensuring a secure communication path. The function is integrated into the iPhone free of charge.
