Self-Paying Clients
Some people choose to finance their psychotherapy privately for personal reasons. The cost is usually €120.00 per session (50 minutes). There is no need to apply through a health insurance provider. Therapy costs can be claimed for tax purposes as extraordinary medical expenses under “other healthcare expenses,” within the limits of what is considered a reasonable burden.
Privately Insured and Civil Servants Eligible for Aid (Beihilfe)
Your private health insurance usually covers the costs of treatment according to your insurance terms. Privately insured clients and those eligible for Beihilfe are generally entitled to:
- up to 3 initial psychotherapeutic consultations
- 4 trial sessions (probatory sessions)
- up to 24 sessions of short-term therapy (usually without needing a review by an external evaluator)
We invoice our services based on the official scale of fees for psychotherapists (GOP), using a multiplier of 2.3. Please check the specific terms of your insurance or aid agency before starting therapy. We are happy to support you with any billing-related questions.
