Write to me. Three lines are enough.
I read every message myself and reply within two working days.
There is no receptionist, and you will not be put on hold. If you would like a short call first, just say so in your message. If you have not heard from me by the third working day, something has gone wrong. Please just call.
Would you rather write than call? Then write.
Please do not include diagnoses or sensitive details in this form. To arrange an appointment, your name and how to reach you are enough. Everything else we discuss when we speak: confidentiality applies there, it does not yet apply here.
Thank you, your enquiry has arrived.
I will get back to you personally within two working days. If you have not heard from me by the third working day, something has gone wrong. Please just call.
What belongs in your first message.
-
What it's about
One or two sentences will do. You don't have to explain anything difficult yet.
-
How you are insured
Privately insured, entitled to Beihilfe (the reimbursement scheme for German civil servants), covered by a statutory Krankenkasse, or paying for yourself.
-
When I can reach you
If you would like a call back: when you are easy to reach. And whether we speak German, English or Farsi.
Phone, email, address.
Telephone [TELEFON], email [E-MAIL]. If I'm in a session, do leave a message on the voicemail; I'll call you back. Email is not a secure means of transmission: write only as much as you want to write, everything else we sort out when we speak.
Address: Im Prüfling 59a, 60389 Frankfurt am Main. The practice opens on 1 November 2026; you can already request an appointment for November or later.
The first appointment.
You tell me what it is about. I tell you how I would work with it, roughly how long that takes and what it costs. We also sort out straight away how your treatment will be billed.
And if I'm not the right person for you, I'll say so openly and tell you where you would be in better hands. That happens, and it isn't a bad outcome: the wrong therapy place costs you months.
The first appointment takes place at the practice. You do not have to prepare anything for it.
If it is acute, please do not wait for me.
My practice is not an emergency service, and some situations cannot wait until the next working day. If you are thinking of taking your own life, please get help before you do anything else.
