Phone Counseling
Are you in a life, faith, or relationship crisis or do you have a professional or personal problem? Do you have to wait months for psychotherapy, do you not want to go to a counseling center and seek immediate help?
I would be happy to counsel you on the phone, so you can be comfortable at home talking to me.
This kind of counseling is more anonymous and can be very helpful e.g. with topics related to shame. Even if you suffer from anxiety or panic disorders, you can speak with me without having to leave your private environment.
Simply arrange a first appointment by E-mail me or call 030-303 45 45 2.
If I'm not available personally, I usually call back the same day, if you have left me your phone number on my answering machine. We shall determine an appointment and its duration. Phone counseling will cost between 0.90 € and 2, - € per minute, depending on your financial situation (self-assessment) and is set before you call and paid in advance. To determine if you are calling me at the appointed time, or want us to call me. There you will incur no additional costs.
In which cases counseling by phone is not appropriate?
Psychological counseling over the phone can not replace outpatient psychotherapy. However, it can help clarify which treatment is most appropriate for you and it can support you in searching for outpatient treatment.
Generally, telephone counseling is not appropriate in such cases:
- Severe depression
- Suicidality
- Personality disorders
- Acute or emergency care
In these cases please contact an local psychotherapist or the emergency number!
Requests and information are always for free. I would appreciate to offer you a free initial consultation over the phone (about 20 min) to clarify your matter of concern.
