Course of a therapy
If you are interested in therapy in our outpatient department, you can contact our secretariat by telephone to make an appointment for a consultation. We will send you a questionnaire in advance so that we can get an initial picture of your complaints.
In a first non-binding consultation you can get to know us personally and we can decide whether the outpatient clinic is the right contact for you. Here you can also find out what it means for your treatment that we carry out research into new developments and improvements in therapy methods.
In accordance with our high quality standards, careful diagnostics are carried out in a personal conversation over several sessions during the follow-up appointments. Modern interview, questionnaire and test procedures are also used here. Your therapist will then discuss all the diagnostic results with you. On this basis, he will work with you to develop a therapy approach that is optimally tailored to your individual problem. Transparency is very important to us here and you have time to decide whether you agree with the procedure.
Then either short (2 x 12 hours) or long-term therapy (60 - 80 hours) is carried out. The duration of therapy depends on the complexity of the disorder and your goals. The individual therapy sessions usually last 50 minutes each. They usually take place once a week. Group therapies can complement individual therapy.
The quality of our offer is checked using suitable questionnaires and tests during and after the end of the therapy. So you too can keep an eye on your own progress. In addition, close supervision of the therapists by long-standing experts in the respective field serves to further ensure our high standards.
