About us
MVZ for Psychotherapy Odendahl & Brinkmann
At our Medical Care Center, you will be treated by licensed psychotherapists — that is, legally licensed psychotherapists, certified psychologists, and educators—with a variety of specializations. All of our therapists are members of the North Rhine-Westphalia Chamber of Psychotherapists or are registered in the medical registry of the North Rhine Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians. In addition, qualified assistant therapists practice in our medical care center’s training practice, benefiting from our expertise and many years of experience. Our focus is on providing individualized care for a wide range of concerns and clinical presentations. Regular continuing education and supervision are a given for us, ensuring the consistent quality of our work.
Our philosophy
Depending on which therapeutic approach is right for you, we will provide you with different treatment plans tailored to your individual needs. The recognized psychotherapeutic approaches in our healthcare system are: behavioral therapy, depth psychology-based therapy, and analytical psychotherapy.
Licensed training is always tied to a specific therapeutic approach. The therapist will assess whether this approach — or another — is best suited to your needs. However, most therapists are also able to draw on methods from other therapeutic approaches. This means that a therapist trained in depth psychology may well conduct a behavioral therapy confrontation exercise with you, as is common in behavioral therapy, for example. We all hold regular intervision sessions and discuss our cases. Through this type of reflection, we all remain in constant dialogue about the effectiveness of our work.
Your confidence and attitude lay the foundation for successfully realizing your own abilities and potential in the future — in line with the goals you have defined together. For your mental well-being — and your happiness in life.
Our couples therapy team consists of trained educators and psychologists who have many years of experience in couples therapy and have undergone extensive, in-depth training in the field. Typically, all of our couples therapists have a systemic background.
