Psychological outpatient clinic

The psychological workplace provides prevention, diagnosis, treatment and support of mental health problems, disorders and diseases to children and adults, outpatients and inpatients and their families.

For hospitalized patients, care is requested by the attending physician in consultation with the patient.

A referral from a general practitioner or specialist is required before an appointment can be made at the outpatient clinic.

If necessary, crisis intervention can be provided to people who are experiencing a difficult time for various reasons without a doctor's referral. The department does not provide special child psychodiagnostics. Children under the age of 16 are admitted to care after prior arrangement and clarification of the contract.

Multiple appointments are often required for diagnosis and psychotherapy, each lasting approximately 50 minutes. In the case of diagnosis, we schedule longer sessions. In addition to talking, we use other methods and techniques for treatment and relief (relaxation training, autogenic training, hypnotherapy, imagery, body work, clay, sandbox, etc.). In the case of child clients, we work in the presence of at least one parent.
