A brief introduction is enough. There is no need to describe your personal history in a contact form.
After you contact me, I will send an introductory email to arrange a session. Please check your spam folder. An inquiry does not by itself confirm an appointment.

Beginning analysis
The first sessions are an opportunity to begin putting things into words. What has brought you here? What feels difficult, and what would you like to work through?
These preliminary conversations also allow us to consider whether psychoanalysis is an appropriate way of working together. If we decide to continue, we discuss the arrangements for the work.
The analytic approach
My practice follows a Lacanian orientation. Attention is given to speech as it unfolds: memories, dreams, associations, and the words that return, sometimes unexpectedly.
Each analysis takes its own course. Frequency and direction are worked out case by case. Lacanian sessions may vary in length, ending at a significant moment in what has been said.
Policies & professional information
Fees and insurance
Fees are on a sliding scale and will be discussed in the first session. Sessions are privately paid and cannot be covered by German public health insurance.
Cancellations
The published practice policy asks for at least 24 hours’ notice. Missed appointments or cancellations with less notice are charged according to the agreed session fee.
Confidentiality and professional status
I provide sessions as a Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapie. Confidentiality is central to the work. My psychoanalytic formation and professional memberships are described on the About page. Client data-protection information is provided separately.
