Career counselling: clarity for your working life

Career counselling offers structured support when your working life raises questions: choosing a direction, changing career, returning to work after a break, adapting to a new country or coping with a job that no longer fits.

Sessions explore your skills, values, interests and constraints, then turn them into realistic options and concrete next steps. When work is a source of strain, counselling can also address work stress, burnout, imposter syndrome or difficult decisions.

Career counselling is not psychotherapy; if a deeper difficulty appears, the counsellor can suggest another form of support.

Students, researchers, families, freelancers and people who came for a new start all live in Berlin, and they come to career counselling with very different questions. Sessions clarify your skills, values and options, and turn them into concrete next steps.

Sessions usually last 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks, in person in Berlin when a therapist offers it or online by secure video. Insurance cover for this kind of session varies in Germany, so it is worth asking your insurer before you start. If you are not sure whether career counselling fits what you are going through, send us a message and we will suggest therapists who match your needs.

FAQ — Career Counseling in Berlin

Is coaching the same as therapy?

No. Coaching focuses on future goals, decision-making and personal development, while psychotherapy is designed to assess and treat mental health difficulties.

Do I need a specific goal before starting?

Not at all. Many people begin coaching because they know something needs to change but are not yet sure what that change looks like.

How many sessions will I need?

Some people benefit from a few focused sessions, while others choose a longer coaching process. Together, you and your practitioner will regularly review your progress and goals.

Is coaching available online?

Yes. Many practitioners offer online coaching, making it easy to access support wherever you live.

Can I see a therapist in person in Berlin, or only online?

Both are possible, depending on the therapist. Some therapists on My International Therapy receive clients in person in Berlin, others work online by secure video, and many offer both. Each profile shows the formats offered. Online sessions are also a way to keep the same therapist if you move or travel.

Can I have therapy in Berlin in English or in my own language?

Yes. Many therapists in the network work in English, and others in German, Russian, Ukrainian and further languages. You can browse English-speaking, German-speaking, Russian-speaking and Ukrainian-speaking therapists in Berlin, and every profile lists the languages spoken.

Does German health insurance pay for therapy?

Statutory health insurance (gesetzliche Krankenversicherung) covers psychotherapy with licensed psychotherapists who have a contract with the insurance funds, but waiting times of several months are common. Many international residents therefore start with a private therapist and pay directly. Private health insurance and some supplementary or expat policies reimburse part of the sessions, depending on the therapist’s qualification: check your contract. Therapists provide invoices you can submit to your insurer.

How much does a therapy session cost in Berlin?

Each therapist sets their own fee, which is shown on their profile. As a guide, most individual approaches on this site are listed between €80 and €180 per session, couples and family therapy between €120 and €220, and coaching, career counselling or parenting support between €70 and €130. Sessions usually last 50 to 60 minutes.

What should I do in an emergency in Berlin?

Therapy is not an emergency service. If you or someone close to you is in danger, call 112. The Telefonseelsorge offers free, anonymous support 24/7 on 0800 111 0 111 or 0800 111 0 222.

How do I choose the right therapist in Berlin?

The relationship with your therapist matters as much as the method. Compare profiles for the approach used, the topics they work with, the languages, the format and the fee. If you are unsure where to start, describe what you are going through and we will suggest therapists who suit your needs. The first session is also a chance to see whether the fit feels right.
