Mental diseases, in particular depression and anxiety disorder, are widely spread today and may strike everybody. Over 30 % of the patients who visit a family doctor have mental diseases. Psychiatric symptoms are as frequent as somatic ones. They may be treated by a family doctor or a psychiatrist.

Our treatments focus on:

• Depression and manic disorder
• Schizophrenia
• Anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder
• Adjustment and posttraumatic stress disorder
• Somatoform disorder
• Personality disorder

• Crises in the context of addictive diseases

The science-based psychiatric und psychotherapeutic medicine forms the basis of our treatment. We expand this basis by integrative treatments of anthroposophical medicine.

• Anthroposophic-naturopathic drugs
• Physical applications (packings, rhythmic embrocations, bathes)
• Art, craft, and work therapy
• Organic food
• Cultural life

The holistic idea of human nature also forms our mindset in psychotherapeutic individual and group dialogs as well as in mentoring.
