Psychological counselling: talking through a difficult period

Psychological counselling is a talking therapy in which a trained professional helps you make sense of a current difficulty. People come for stress, a life transition, a difficult decision, relationship problems or a period of low mood.

Counselling is often shorter and more focused than long-term psychotherapy. Sessions give space to talk openly, clarify what you feel and need, and look at options and next steps. If deeper or more specialised help would be useful, a counsellor can say so and suggest a suitable approach.

FAQ — Psychological counselling in Berlin

What is Psychological counselling?

Psychological counselling is a therapeutic approach used by trained professionals to support emotional, behavioral, relational, or psychological change.

What can Psychological counselling help with?

Psychological counselling may be used for concerns such as Anxiety, Depression, Life transitions, Relationship issues, and Stress. The exact fit depends on assessment and goals.

How long does Psychological counselling take?

Many people start with 6 to 12 sessions and review progress, while complex or long-standing concerns may require longer support.

How do I know if Psychological counselling is right for me?

Ask the therapist about their training, how sessions are structured, how progress is reviewed, and whether the method fits your goals and preferences.

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 match your needs. The first session is also a chance to see whether the fit feels right.
