The question is rarely whether something is serious enough. It’s usually about where to go with it. Some things you take to friends or family. When you need more qualified help, you go to a professional. Here, you’ll speak with a licensed psychotherapist, with no application and no diagnosis.

A session lasts 50 minutes, and the in-depth initial consultation lasts 90 minutes. We meet by video in a virtual consultation room. You can also leave your camera off if that feels more comfortable.
If video doesn’t suit you, counseling can also take place by phone. Some people feel freer that way. On the phone, tone of voice and what is said also come more to the fore. Personally, I like both.
My counseling is covered by the legal duty of confidentiality. Because I run a private practice for self-pay clients, there is no insurance application and no diagnosis in your medical record. You decide how many counseling sessions you’ll have.
This service is psychological counseling, not psychotherapy. It is not intended to diagnose, cure, or alleviate illnesses.
My name is Aris Haegermann, and I am a licensed psychological psychotherapist. I have been working in my own practice since 2016, and before that, I spent about four years working in psychosomatic clinics.
My way of working is shaped by psychodynamic psychotherapy and Gestalt therapy. When past wounds continue to have an impact, I work in a trauma-informed way.
Since early 2024, I’ve been traveling a lot and working exclusively online.
Anyone living abroad may know the feeling of being at home in two worlds and not fully at home in either.
I’ve been seeing my own therapist online for some time now, and I find it very enriching. Whether the format holds up even when things get difficult is something I saw during the pandemic, with the people I was working with in my practice at the time.

If this arrangement doesn't work out for you, I'll refund you the amount for the remaining package sessions.
The initial consultation is a 50- or 90-minute counseling session for which a fee is charged. We’ll get to know each other and begin working on your concerns right away. Afterward, you can decide whether you’d like to schedule additional sessions.
You can leave it at a single session or book additional appointments individually. A package is another option if you’ve decided to have multiple sessions. It begins after the initial consultation, which is billed separately.
You don’t need to write anything out in detail. If you’d like, you can jot down what’s on your mind and what you hope to get out of the session. For the video call, you’ll need a quiet place, a stable internet connection, and a camera and microphone.
Before your first paid session, you will receive information regarding services, fees, payment, canceling appointments, and confidentiality. The agreement also explains how personal data is handled and how the relationship is terminated. You will decide on additional sessions and packages separately.
This counseling service is available to self-pay clients. I do not bill health insurance for this service.
“I found Mr. Haegermann to be clear, direct, compassionate, and encouraging. It was especially valuable that I was never pressured.”Norman · Read the full testimonial
“Working with Mr. Haegermann was incredibly meaningful to me. During a difficult phase of my life, I felt safe and supported right from the start. That sense of security allowed me to open up, engage with my issues, and accept all aspects of myself better. I found Mr. Haegermann to be clear, direct, compassionate, and encouraging. What was particularly valuable was that I was never pressured, but instead received gentle pointers on where it was worth taking a closer look. This has inspired me in a lasting way, in how I treat myself and in my relationships. I always felt that he was right there by my side. I’m just so incredibly grateful for that!”

More Testimonials
“Mr. Haegermann was able to support me very well during an important phase of my life. I really appreciated his experience and down-to-earth nature! I would recommend that everyone work on their own issues at regular intervals. There are always some. I searched for a long time before I found the right therapist for my needs and expectations. Thank you so much for the good support! An appointment was available very quickly. Great!”
“The therapy really helped me understand myself better and develop new perspectives. I especially appreciated Mr. Haegermann’s respectful, calm manner and his professional support. From the very beginning, I felt taken seriously and in good hands. His empathetic manner and clear, helpful input supported me greatly and helped me in a lasting way. Thank you very much for that.”
My online psychological counseling takes place by video, and you can sit wherever you feel comfortable, at home or on the go.
There’s no commute and no waiting room, and you decide for yourself how much space counseling gets in your everyday life.
The prices for a single session and for five or ten sessions are listed in the services section above. There is no membership or subscription; you pay only for what you’ve booked.
Online psychological counseling is not guideline-based psychotherapy, and statutory health insurance does not cover it. Instead, there is no application, no diagnosis in your medical record, and no waiting time for a spot. Anyone who needs long-term, diagnostically based treatment is usually in the right place with a psychotherapist who has a statutory health insurance license.
If you find someone good elsewhere, I wish you nothing but the best. If counseling with me isn’t enough because an illness needs treatment, or if you don’t want to spend the money, you have every right to look elsewhere. But if, based on what you read on my pages, you want to work with me personally, an initial consultation will show you whether it’s a good fit.
You can book your initial consultation directly via “Schedule an appointment” in the services section above. There is no questionnaire or intake form to fill out beforehand.
After the initial consultation, you decide whether further sessions follow.
