Psychodynamic therapy – similar to psychoanalysis – assumes that symptoms point to difficulties in dealing with current life situations using “old” patterns. These patterns of experience develop individually in each person – shaped by constitution, life history, and personal development. They reflect how you have managed your life so far and significantly influence your relational style.

Often, we are not aware of these coping patterns. In many life situations, they serve us well for years. But sometimes they become painfully noticeable – and yet we struggle to change them. In overwhelming situations, old coping strategies are no longer enough. This can lead to the development of various psychological symptoms, including:

Fears and anxiety disorders

Physical pain and discomfort without sufficient medical findings

Sadness that seems inexplicable

Longing for death or inner emptiness

Inner restlessness and sleep disorders

Work difficulties and exhaustion (burnout)

Lack of motivation and drive

In such moments, psychodynamic therapy in Berlin can be especially helpful. Based on your current difficulties, I offer you the opportunity – in an atmosphere of appreciation and trust – to explore the meanings behind your symptoms.

Sometimes the first important step is to create a protected space where you can talk about your symptoms – even if they feel shameful or uncomfortable. In that space, you can take steps toward new perspectives that once seemed unimaginable. I will be there to support and assist you in this process. If you see yourself in these descriptions and are looking for psychotherapy in Berlin, I warmly invite you to take the first step.
