Dr. Michael Affemann
Counseling Psychologist PhD
Over time, my approach to Counseling has been greatly shaped by my experiences in these settings and I have become very passionate about recognizing and developing my client’s – your – potential while, at the same time, helping you learn to better control the impact of your weaknesses, so you can be your very best as an executive, artist, athlete, friend, parent or in any other life situation.
Dr. Ramona Varga
Licensed Psychologist
My experience is that no one suffers who has not been hurt. The therapist makes a deep alliance with the patient and the two work together until the patient realizes what conditions, what people, what environment it takes for him to live to be who he is.
Sandra Kress
Licensed Psychologist
I am a mother of four children and love to accompany people of all ages on their individual development path. I work with family systems and individual members. I see the stimulation of a creative development process and the realisation of personal potential as a great gift.
Checklist for Choosing a Qualified Expert
Academic Background: (M.Sc.) in psychology (no MA) ; PhD in Counselling; PsyD in Psychotherapy
Private or Licensed
Look out for memberships such as the APA, BPS, DGPS, or NCPS.
Ethics and confidentiality: Choose someone who guarantees GDPR-compliant confidentiality and secure, encrypted communication. Sessions via Zoom or Skype are a red flag.
Evidence-based practice: Effective therapists work with proven, research-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), or integrative counseling approaches.
Experience and specialization: Seek out therapists who highlight their clinical experience, special areas of expertise, or contributions to research, as these strengthen both competence and credibility.

Quality Standard
A psychologist holds at least an M.Sc. in Psychology, which means at least six years of studying human functioning. There are different focuses that psychologists choose throughout their studies. As a health psychologist, you focus on prevention and performance enhancement. A licensed psychologist has completed clinical training and focuses on treating pathology through therapy. A psychiatrist will treat mental illnesses with medication. Life coaching is therefore ideally led by health psychologists.
Real Stories & Testimonials
“My initial consultation with Nicole was super pleasant! She has an interesting approach that I hadn't had before. I felt at ease straight away. I can definitely recommend her!!”
"Psychological counselling? I don't need it - at least that's what I thought. I didn't know what to expect at my first appointment, but I thought it was worth a try. Due to my constant lack of motivation in my job search, with Samir's help I came across even deeper problems rooted in me. After each of the three one-hour sessions, I went out with a new sociological lens on my situation. Thanks to his passion and commitment, he helped me to clear the mental fog that was covering up my blockages - often even beyond the agreed time. Now I know where to focus my energy and what I can do to better understand my career path and even myself. Thank you very much, Samir!"
“Super platform! Easy to use, great therapists and perfect if you need flexible and convenient support. I use it whenever I want to talk with someone in the moment.”
