Costs
Private health insurance
Please contact me to arrange an initial consultation. I also recommend that you ask your private health insurance company whether the reimbursement of psychotherapeutic costs is part of your contract and what formalities need to be observed when your child receives psychotherapy.
Kostenerstattung
Since this is a private practice, I only work with people with statutory health insurance as part of the cost reimbursement process. If you are legally insured, you are welcome to contact me and I will advise you on how to proceed and support you with the application.
Beihilfe
Please contact me to arrange an initial consultation. I also recommend that you contact your Beihilfe office at the same time to find out what documents are required for the application and how many therapy hours can be covered.
Self-payer
As a self-payer, you may be able to cover the costs of your child's psychotherapy yourself. The cost of one therapy session is €135.53. Please contact me to arrange an initial consultation.
Appointment
To arrange an appointment, please feel free to contact me by phone or email. I will endeavor to answer your inquiries promptly and find a suitable date for you and look forward to getting to know you and your child!
