About us

Our philosophy

In the practice Odendahl & Kollegen you will be supported by certified, i.e. legally licensed psychotherapists and certified psychologists and pedagogues of different specializations.

Depending on which professional approach is the right one for you, you will receive different concepts for your individual therapeutic offer. In our health care system the recognized procedures are: Behavioral therapy, depth psychology-based therapy and analytical psychotherapy.

The license to practice is always tied to a specific specialty. The respective therapist will check whether this or another specialty fits your needs. However, most therapists are also able to use methods from other disciplines. This means that a therapist trained in depth psychology can do a behavioural confrontation exercise with you, as is common in behavioural therapy. We all hold regular intervision sessions and exchange information about our cases. In this kind of reflection we all remain in constant exchange about the effectiveness of our work.
Of course, you can expect scientifically based methods from the various fields in our therapeutic practice, for example when it comes to the following:

to decide the direction in which you want to develop and to support you in this
define goals together and help you to overcome obstacles
to realize the optimum for you in an analytical, integrative and flexible way
to continuously check and document all treatment successes
to enable the most far-reaching and sustainable changes possible

Your confidence and your attitude lay the foundation for making satisfactory use of your own abilities and potential – in accordance with the jointly defined goals – in the future. For your mental health – and your happiness in life.

Trained pedagogues and psychologists who have many years of experience in couple therapy and who have a long, well-founded training in couple therapy are working for you in couple therapy. Usually the couple therapists are all equipped with a systemic background.
