Johanna Rottenbach

As a deep psychologist I am trained to study the unconscious mind of my patients, to help them to understand their own emotional and mental patterns. This treatment can be a support in moments of instability and doubt.

As we wont be in the same room, i ask you to prepare for this therapy as a counseling, in which we focus on certain issues and get a deeper understanding of it. I underwent a profound education of seven years, which gives you the security of working with a professional therapist .

👪 My consultations with parents or caregivers can help to understand the behavior of your children better, get a professional advice about their development or use a therapeutic guidance to improve the relationship with them. The time of becoming an adult can be a very critical time in life for many of us. To navigate that moments of crises with a therapist on your side, can be very helpful.
