Parenting support: help with the everyday challenges of raising children

Parenting support is for mothers, fathers and carers who feel stretched by family life. It can help with daily conflicts, sleep and screen battles, boundaries, a child’s difficult phase or the strain of parenting far from your own family.

Sessions can be with one parent or both. They look at routines, communication and the patterns you may be repeating from your own childhood, with the aim of calmer and more confident parenting. Related topics include parenting stress, family conflict and burnout.

Asking for support is not a sign of failing as a parent.

Berlin is one of Europe’s most international cities, and many residents look for parenting support in English or in another language they feel at home in. Sessions can be with one parent or both, and look at routines, boundaries and the patterns you may be repeating from your own childhood.

Online sessions by secure video are a practical option if you live outside the centre of Berlin, travel often or are about to move. Some insurers or employers in Germany contribute to this kind of support and others do not, so check your contract before you start. On each profile you can check the approach, the languages, the session format and the fee before you book.

FAQ — Parenting Support in Berlin

Do I need to bring my child to therapy?

Not necessarily.

Many parenting sessions involve only the parent or parents. Depending on your situation, your therapist may later recommend involving your child or other family members.

What if my partner doesn't want to attend?

You can still benefit from therapy individually. Often, changes made by one parent positively influence the whole family.

Is Parenting Support only for parents of young children?

No.

Parents of teenagers, adult children and blended families can also benefit from psychological support.

Will the therapist tell me how to parent?

No.

Rather than giving rigid advice, therapy helps you better understand your child, strengthen your confidence and develop strategies that fit your family's needs.

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.
