About me

⬣ Whether you already met me in a clinical setting, were referred by a friend, or simply found me through this platform – I’m glad you’re here. My name is Johannes Freymann, I am a clinical psychologist, researcher, and trainer with a focus on experiential and mindfulness-based approaches.

⬣ Over the past decade, I have lived and worked in Sri Lanka, Singapore, Lithuania, Italy, Cyprus and Germany. These experiences not only shaped me personally but also enriched my perspective as a psychologist, allowing me to bring sensitivity, curiosity, openness and a sense of adventure into my clinical work.

⬣ Alongside my clinical practice, I am actively engaged in research within the field of Contextual Behavioral Science – the science behind Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also provide advanced training for colleagues, particularly on ACT and psychedelic-assisted therapy.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and commitment therapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
Systemic therapyRecommended for those who want to understand how their relationships and environments influence their behavior and emotions, particularly within family or organizational systems.

⬣ We are often convinced—by our environment, but also by the workings of our own mind—that there is an unchangeable truth. This state can provide a sense of safety, but in times of psychological struggle it can also feel confining and hopeless. If you hold the belief that your situation cannot change, you are not alone—and it is not your fault.

⬣ I have a deep trust in change and in psychological flexibility — especially when they seem out of reach. Often, it is not the inner experience itself, but the struggle against it, that keeps us from what truly matters. Yet, we are more than this struggle—more than the stories we tell ourselves every day. There is always another perspective, another path. Together, we will explore these perspectives — in conscious connection with each other, and with ourselves.

⬣ For me, mental health means rediscovering a sense of awe and wonder — about what makes us who we are (and yes, sometimes what makes life heavy) — and about what becomes possible once we begin to ask the essential questions. What truly matters to you in life? And what is still waiting to be discovered?
