Overcoming depression and burnout: therapy in Berlin that really gets to the root of the problem

Exhausted, empty inside, lacking motivation, and feeling like things can't go on like this? You're not alone. As an experienced therapist in Berlin, I can help you not only alleviate the symptoms but also understand the underlying causes and bring about lasting change. Appointments are available on short notice.


Not all depressions are the same. There are mild, moderate, and severe forms, as well as burnout and exhaustion depression. They all deserve treatment. You don't have to wait until things get worse.

Therapy that doesn’t sugarcoat things.

Many people say that although they talked a lot about their problems in therapy, little has changed. That’s not your fault. My approach is different: I work actively with you, not as a passive listener. Together, we face up to what’s difficult, rather than running away from it. Because real change doesn’t come from avoidance, but from working through what’s weighing you down.

 

Depth psychology & behavioural therapy

I combine the best of both worlds: the depth of psychodynamic work with the solution-focused pragmatism of behavioural therapy.

 

Emotion-focused work

Difficult emotions aren’t analysed from a distance. They are experienced, endured and transformed together.

 

Solution-focused approach

Every session has a clear focus. We work purposefully towards tangible change within a reasonable timeframe.

 

Active participation

I am not a passive observer. I get involved. Respectfully, directly, and always with your best interests at heart.


Whoever works with you makes the difference
Therapy is a matter of trust. Before you make your decision, it’s only fair that you know who you’re dealing with: how I think, how I work, and why I chose this profession.
This is how we get started together
The first step is often the hardest. That’s why I’ve made it as easy as possible to get started:

1. Free initial consultation (up to 30 mins)

We get to know each other: in person, over the phone or via video call. You tell me what’s on your mind. I explain how I work. No pressure, no obligation.

2. Diagnosis & setting shared goals

During the first few sessions, we will work together to identify what is troubling you, what you would like to change, and which approach is right for you.

3. Active therapeutic work

We work together – right from the very first session. In a focused and in-depth way. I’ll help you not only to identify difficult feelings, but also to truly transform them.

4. Noticeable change within a reasonable timeframe

In-depth work does not have to go on indefinitely. Clients often experience the first real changes in how they perceive, think and feel as early as the first few sessions.

You don’t need to make a decision today. Start with a no-obligation, free consultation and see how it feels.


I currently have therapy slots available. In many cases, an initial consultation can be arranged within a few days. Please email me or book directly via Doctolib.


I work with patients who pay privately and – depending on the policy – with private health insurers. Unfortunately, public health insurance funds do not cover the costs. Please feel free to discuss your options with me during our initial consultation.
Yes, in full. Therapy in English is available to the same standard of depth and quality.
I take an active and direct approach, rather than simply observing from the sidelines. My approach combines depth psychology, behavioural therapy and emotion-focused therapy. I work with you to address the difficult issues, because that is precisely what makes change possible.
