Psychological Counselling
Clarity, strengths & next steps
When counselling helps
Not every difficult period amounts to mental illness. Psychological counselling is about understanding challenges, shaping perspective, and agreeing practical steps—for example during big life transitions, stress overload, or when you want support with clarity and decisions.
- ✓No clinical diagnosis:You do not need a medical diagnosis or statutory health-insurance paperwork for this service.
- ✓Prevention & strengths:Build on what supports you already, ease strain early, or work towards a concrete goal.
If clinical treatment appears appropriate—or you specifically want evidence-based psychotherapy—psychotherapy(online or in Cologne) may be the better fit. I'm happy to help you clarify what would suit you best.
Topics that often come up:
Crisis & transitions
break-up, relocation, career change, family planning, loss
Heavy life load
stress, overwhelm, uncertainty without assuming a disorder
Decisions & direction
making trade-offs, finding clarity, planning next steps
Goals & change
structuring workplace or personal projects you care about
Stress & tension
managing day-to-day pressure, restoring balance
Agency & strengths
noticing abilities and mobilising resources for change
Work & roles
boundaries, conflict, navigating professional questions
Prevention
seeking support before problems spiral
Is your topic missing? Reach out—not everything fits neat labels. I'll help you figure out whether counselling or psychotherapy would suit you better.
At the practice in Cologne or online
From December 2026, counselling takes place on Mondays and Tuesdays at my practice in Cologne-Nippes (Kempener Str. 67, close to the Florastraße tram stop).
Online sessions via secure video are available across Germany, for example if you travel a lot or live abroad. The two can also be combined.
