On this page, we explain transparently what our systemic couples counseling is legally – and what it explicitly is not. This provides clarity for you as a client and simultaneously protects the integrity of our work.
We use the term "systemic couples therapy" solely as a professional designation. It is a synonym for in-depth, systemically oriented couples and relationship counseling. It does not mean that we offer medical or psychotherapeutic treatment in the sense of conventional medicine.
In Germany, couples therapy is generally not covered by statutory health insurance. It is usually commissioned and paid for privately. Our services are therefore clearly classified as non-medical, private-sector counseling services.
Clearly defining our services protects both sides. As a client, you know what to expect – and what not to expect. And we can work within a transparent framework that benefits our clients. DGSF-certified training and complies with our ethical guidelines.
If you suspect you are experiencing mental health problems that may warrant a diagnosis, we recommend that you first seek a medical or psychotherapeutic evaluation. We are happy to provide additional support in relationship issues – provided that this is compatible with concurrent treatment.
