Day Clinic for Scientific Psychotherapy
In our Day Clinic for Scientific Psychotherapy, we apply three scientifically substantiated types of psychotherapy: behavioral therapy, schema therapy and individual supportive therapy. The general efficacy of psychotherapy on depression has already been proven several times. Our interdisciplinary team of physicians and psychologists aims to improve the understanding of psychotherapy even more, in order to treat our patients in a more specialized and personalized manner in the future. After all, we don´t know which specific therapy will have the best effect on each patient before starting therapy.
Furthermore, we are interested in the biological effects of psychotherapy, which is why we attach great value to state-of-the-art diagnostic examinations. We also offer a personalized therapy program for patients suffering from depression that have not been or are no longer treated in the clinic, or for whom only outpatient treatment isn´t sufficient.
As a patient in our day clinic you will be spending the nights and weekends in the familiar environment of your own home, while receiving intense psychotherapy treatment in individual or group sessions during the day.
Due to its tight connection to the research clinic of the Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry, you´ll benefit from medical care on an excellent level. Your days will be topped off with a variety of physical and creative activities as well as job-oriented occupational therapy and psychopharmacological treatment.
