3) Diagnostics

In the diagnostic sessions we use various instruments such as questionnaires, Interviews and other sources of information (including smartphone apps for recording symptoms in everyday life). The results are presented and discussed. If psychotherapy is recommended, we will work out an individual treatment plan.

4) Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy is carried out by child and adolescent psychotherapists. And since we are part of the university of Münster students may also be involved. The duration of psychotherapy is determined on an individual basis.
Diagnostic assessments are carried out repeatedly in order to detect any changes at an early stage and ensure optimal treatment.

5) Completion of Treatment

Before concluding the psychotherapy, we assess together, again using various instruments, whether symptoms have improved. If further psychotherapy is required, we offer recommendations on how and where to continue.

 

 

 

 

Who pays for the treatment?

The treatment costs are covered by public health insurance funds and, as a rule, by private insurance companies.
