• Flexibility: You can attend sessions conveniently from anywhere and integrate them more easily into your daily routine.

• Time and cost savings: There is no need for travel and the associated costs, which is especially beneficial for long distances.

• Comfortable environment: Many people feel more relaxed and can open up more easily in the familiar atmosphere of their own home.

• Counselor of your choice: The online format means you're not limited to local options and can choose the counselor who best suits you.

• High flexibility in scheduling appointments: Appointments can often be arranged at short notice and at different times of the day.

• Technological possibilities: Digital tools can support the counseling process, for example, by sharing materials or using interactive methods.

• Accessibility: Access to counseling is much easier for people with limited mobility or in rural areas.​

​

You can expect counseling that's just as valuable and intensive as in a face-to-face meeting, with the flexibility offered by the online format.

Before the consultation:

• After booking an appointment via my website, you will promptly receive an email with the Zoom link and all the necessary login information for the consultation.

• You may receive an email in advance asking for further information about yourself and your concerns. If so, you will then receive further information via email.

On the day of the meeting:

• via Zoom App: Open the Zoom app on your device of choice. You can access the online consultation room using the meeting ID and password included in the email.

• via Browser/Link: Open the above-mentioned email. Simply click on the link provided to join the virtual consultation room.

• At the beginning of the consultation, we will discuss your concerns and clarify any questions about the technology or the process. The session itself will be similar to an in-person meeting – we will work together on your topics, exchange ideas, and use interactive tools as needed.

​

After the consultation

• After the session, you may receive further materials or information by email.

Technical requirements and preparations:

• Sessions will take place via Zoom, a user-friendly and secure platform that allows you to speak openly and comfortably in a familiar environment.

• You will need: A computer, laptop, tablet, or smartphone. We generally recommend choosing a device with a sufficiently large screen to ensure you get the most out of the consultation format,

  • a stable internet connection,

  • A working webcam and microphone (which are built into most devices) are also required,

  • On the software side, we recommend installing the Zoom app, which is available free of charge for all major operating systems.​

​

Location requirements:

• It is recommended that you stay in a quiet, enclosed space during the session where you can speak undisturbed and in a private atmosphere. This ensures that your conversations remain confidential and that you can fully concentrate on the consultation.

The offered online counseling gives you the opportunity to receive professional, systemic support from the comfort of your own home, on the go, or anywhere else in the world. This form of counseling is characterized by short wait times, flexibility in terms of time and location, and a high degree of relevance to everyday life – factors that help many of my clients work effectively on their issues.

​

However, it is also important to note the limitations of this online service:

• in acute crisis situations, 

• suicidal thoughts,

• psychotic symptoms,

• dissociative states,

psychiatric assessment and direct contact with a psychotherapist are essential.

​

In such cases, please contact the emergency medical service immediately or inquire with your health insurance provider about a suitable therapist.
