Psychological Counselling to Improve Your Relationships and Mental Health
Counselling and Therapy in my Vienna Practice (1060) or Online
I am a psychologist and therapist with over ten years of experience counselling individuals who face depression, anxiety, addictions, trauma and other mental health challenges, as well as providing couples therapy in Vienna (Austria) and remotely to clients worldwide (in English). I aim to help my clients overcome their challenges in a nonjudgmental, empathetic and confidential environment, where they can share their experiences, feelings and thoughts, and where we collaboratively work to solve their problems.
My counselling method is generally based on several approaches I am trained in (both in Austria and the UK). It includes cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) for anxiety and depression, eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) for psychological trauma, family therapy, stress management, performance coaching, humanistic counselling and neuroscience of mental health. However, depending on the case, I may or may not be influenced by those approaches. While offering help and guidance, my major goal is to empower individuals to make their own adjustments and decisions by means of our collaborative work. Another major goal is to help my clients gain the insights necessary for achieving a balanced state in the long term.
Some reasons why people seek counselling are
- doubts and uncertainties,
- overwhelming stress,
- worries and overthinking,
- self-esteem issues,
- career changes,
- life transitions,
- professional relationship difficulties,
- marital problems,
- procrastination or a lack of motivation,
- the aftermath of psychological trauma,
- loss,
- grief,
- low mood and moodiness,
- difficulties controlling anger,
- depression and various anxiety symptoms,
- behavioural, internet or alcohol addiction,
- other concerns
Marriage Counselling or Couples Therapy In Person in Vienna or Online (Also Internationally, in English)
Some other reasons may be related to relationship and marriage crises or difficulties, such as
- a lack of trust,
- poor communication,
- individual diffirences (cultural or other),
- issues related to jealousy, intimacy, infidelity and betrayal trauma or other challenges that may arise within relationships.
Each person’s concerns are highly subjective. Therefore, the psychological support I provide is not standardised or manualised. Here is my article on the general concepts of psychological counselling, and here is another article that specifically covers the purposes and process of couples therapy or marriage counselling. Just a heads-up, my articles may appear a bit lengthy. Thus, I’d be happy to give you the highlights and break down any concepts you’re interested in when we meet online or in person.
Counselling Versus Psychotherapy
In contrast to psychotherapy, counselling focuses more on the process of change or transformation. On the other hand, psychotherapy often centres on treating specific issues. It may include therapy for depression, anxiety disorders, dependencies, trauma, eating disorders and other mental health conditions in Vienna or anywhere else. The counselling process of gaining insights, becoming aware and changing is as important as the outcome of the counselling journey.
Benefits and Challenges of Online Counselling
Online therapy and counselling offer certain advantages. The main benefit is that you may attend a session from your preferred place without sacrificing time for commuting. Moreover, it is a solution for those who can not find a competent or suitable therapist or counsellor nearby. Yet, you should be comfortable using online technologies and have a secure and stable Internet connection. In cases involving individuals coping with severe trauma or depression, I prefer conducting counselling or couples therapy sessions in person at my Vienna practice.
