Psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy

Psychotherapist // Psychologist

“Everybody is dealing with how much of their own aliveness they can bear and how much they need to anesthetize themselves. We all have self-cures for strong feelings. Then the self-cure becomes a problem, in the obvious sense that the problem of the alcoholic is not alcohol, but sobriety. Drinking becomes a problem, but actually the problem is what’s being cured by the alcohol. By the time we’re adults, we’ve all become alcoholics. That’s to say, we’ve all evolved ways of deadening certain feelings and thoughts. One of the reasons we admire or like art, if we do, is that it reopens us in some sense — as Kafka wrote in a letter, art breaks the seas that’s frozen inside us. It reminds us of sensitivities that we might have lost at some cost. […] It’s as though one is struggling to be as inert as possible — and struggling against one’s inertia.”

Adam Phillips in "The Art of Nonfiction No. 7" (Interview with Paul Holdengräber)

It is time that the field of mental health gets progressively destigmatized! Seeking help can but does not need to come from a feeling of crisis.

Psychotherapy should not be a tool for "normalization" and adaptation to normative ways of being in the world. It is an attempt to take ourselves and our surroundings seriously and not, at least for the most part, a quest to fit into something more unproblematically.

Fees

The fee is agreed upon together at the beginning of the therapeutic process and is based on your income. Sessions cancelled less than 48 hours in advance are charged in full. A partial reimbursement through the health insurance is possible, and I will be happy to explain the exact process to you in person.
