In our psychodynamic practice in Berlin, we support people facing emotional distress and psychological disorders. Through our depth-psychological approach, we help to uncover unconscious conflicts behind the symptoms and enable sustainable change.

If you are seeking support, we are here for you.

Why choose our psychodynamic treatment?

The psychodynamic approach assumes that current problems often stem from early learned patterns and attachment experiences that are pre-conscious or unconscious. At the same time, focusing on present experiences and current relationships is central to our daily work. As the bearer of our unconscious and trauma, as well as the biological vessel of our soul, the body holds a central role in our integrative approach. Through therapeutic work, patterns can be recognized, understood, and changed. The therapy offers a safe space to experience deep emotional processes, resolve conflicts, and find new ways to come into more positive resonance with oneself, one’s body, and the surrounding world.

Our Treatment Spectrum:

Among the most common mental disorders are depressive disorders and depression. Affected individuals often suffer from persistent joylessness, sadness, lack of motivation, and sleep disturbances. Anxiety and panic disorders as well as social phobias also belong to affective disorders and are part of our treatment spectrum. Insecurity, low self-esteem, chronic tension, and nervousness frequently accompany these conditions. Test anxiety and fear of failure also impair some individuals in both professional and personal contexts. Psychodynamic treatment helps uncover, address, and transform underlying patterns and emotional conflicts.

ADHD and autism spectrum disorders share a biological basis, often accompanying individuals throughout life and posing major everyday challenges. Adults with ADHD frequently struggle with concentration problems, inner restlessness, impulsivity, and difficulties in self-organization. Autism can manifest through social insecurities, sensory sensitivities, and challenges in interpersonal communication. In our practice, we offer specialized diagnostics for adult ADHD to provide a solid foundation for individualized therapy and support. Our mentalization-based approach helps individuals better understand their own thoughts, emotions, and behavior patterns, strengthen their self-regulation, and find constructive ways to handle their unique challenges.

Many individuals struggle with obsessive-compulsive disorders or recurring obsessive thoughts and rituals that dominate their lives. Impulse control disorders—such as sudden outbursts of anger or uncontrollable actions—can also impair social interactions. People with personality disorders—such as borderline traits, narcissistic tendencies, or anxious, self-doubting, and dependent personalities—can benefit from psychodynamic therapy by developing new ways of experiencing themselves and interacting with others.

Traumatic experiences and their consequences may manifest as flashbacks, avoidance behavior, and severe emotional strain. Complicated grief, separations, and losses also leave deep psychological imprints. Individuals who have experienced violence or bullying often continue to suffer from the psychological aftermath and embodied horror long after the events. Trauma therapy makes it possible to uncover and accept traumatic experiences, reduce embodiment, and develop healthy coping strategies and interpersonal skills.

Addictive behavior appears in many forms—from classic substance dependencies to new addictions like excessive gaming, pornography, sex addiction, or compulsive social media use. The psychodynamic perspective enables exploration of the psychological mechanisms and functions of addiction—often rooted in unresolved emotional conflicts, loneliness, or self-esteem issues. The goal of therapy is to develop long-term stable mechanisms for self-regulation, healthy consumption habits, or stable abstinence.

Eating disorders like anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating are closely tied to deeply rooted psychological patterns. They often express self-esteem issues, unresolved conflicts, or a lack of emotional self-regulation. Psychosomatic complaints and chronic pain disorders may also have a psychodynamic component. Sometimes, the focus is on emotional support and developing better coping mechanisms for a chronic somatic condition. The body becomes the stage for internal and external conflicts, which can be explored, understood, and addressed in therapy.

In our modern performance-oriented society, many people suffer from chronic overload, work-related disorders, and burnout. Exhaustion and the feeling of constant overwhelm can lead to psychological and physical paralysis. Psychodynamic treatment helps identify unhealthy patterns of self-overburdening and develop new strategies for a more balanced life.

Identity disorders, attachment problems, and relationship difficulties are often linked to early experiences and deeply ingrained patterns. Challenges in partnerships, fear of commitment, or recurring conflicts in interpersonal relationships can be explored and transformed in therapy. Sexual disorders—whether caused by fears, trauma, or repressed needs—can also be understood and resolved through psychodynamic work. Individuals with unconventional sexual desires and orientations can find support in integrating these aspects into their self-image and partnerships. A nonjudgmental therapeutic space enables reflection on uncertainties and conflicts and fosters an authentic approach to one’s own sexuality. People with more pronounced or non-normative sexual fantasies and needs can also receive support in aligning their preferences with their self-image and exploring how to live them in harmony with their personal values and social relationships.
