“What we all are truly looking for is to finally just come home to ourselves!” – Nicholas Bellafiore | Clinical Therapist
Experience and approach: I have over 13 years of experience in the field of individual therapy with over 1000 clients that I had the privilege to support, guide and accompany in their growth. Each person that steps into my office is received with a warm and respectful welcome as a client. My sessions are defined by clarity, encouragement and fast resolution. My sentiment towards Individual Therapy is primarly to stop the seemingly endless struggle of being detached to yor needs, motivs and beliefs. I will guide you professionally and help you delegate those needs, motivs and beliefs in a way that gives you an understanding of reconnecting and empowering yourself again. My upmost goal is getting you to where you want to go, counseling you at your crossroads and encouraging you when your hope seems lost. My approach is proactive, humerous and sincere. I care for each one of my clients. I will call you out on what you need to own. I will confront you with precision and emapthy. Hence guide you compassionately to navigate your relationship to yourself with confidence and success. Together we will help you come back home to yourself.
Benefits: Taking this first step towards seeking individual therapy can be a difficult one. It may however also be the step that changes your life. Caught up in our daily hassles we often don’t get the chance to listen in on ourselves, to understand what we need, cherish, miss and desire. We develop mechanisms and patterns, some functional others dysfunctional and misleading. Somehow things then just don’t feel right- neither as an individual nore within a partnership. And it is in these moments that we, as much as we seek change, find ourselves entangled and sometimes lost within a vicious and confusing circle of thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Unable to surpass or escape we then somehow, although it clearly feels wrong and uncomforting, accept and nourish that circle. To set new horizons we need to understand decisively what defines our core needs as an individual and within our partnership. Knowledge itself though, will not do. You need to feel it. Truthfully. Individual therapy and counseling refers to the one-on-one mental health treatment that is personalized to suit your very individual and unique needs. It involves setting therapeutic goals, processing your past, and learning how to manage the symptoms and triggers in order to live a healthier and more promising life.
Goals: In this I can and will support you fully. Fast and efficiently. When working with me you can expect someone who takes strong interest in your case and in you as a person, not only surfacing and unwinding mechanisms and patterns that you find disturbing and challenging, but also confronting and guiding you through aspects of yourself that support these patterns. Using a client centered approach, I provide counseling and therapy for individuals and couples wanting to understand, examine, and effectively change these subconsciously inherent dysfunctional patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior that burden health, emotional satisfaction and interpersonal relationships. More importantly I provide fast and efficient solutions. My fields of expertise include the treatment of personality disorders, anxiety, depression, grief, stress and anger, low self-esteem, acute crisis, cultural acclimatisation, relationship and adjustment difficulties, interpersonal communication, as well as supporting personal growth, setting your boundaries and developing into the individual you deserve to be.
Availabilites and Set-Up: My services as a Therapist for indivuidual Therapy are avialable anyday and worldwide via video and online as well as in person in either my Prenzlauer Berg or Charlottenburg office in Berlin. I offer high flexibilitiy regarding the scheduling as I am available most days of the week from 8am to 11pm. My sessions are efficient and fast and based on more than 10 years experience. Individual therapy is mostly structured in a weekly form. As we move forward in the sesssions you can at any point decide to move to every other week or even monthly. You define the rota of the sessions. At some point meeting every other month usually becomes sufficient. Whereas in Couples Therapy we recreate the connection and foundation of respect, understanding und warmth that you seek for, the Individual Therapy will outline your own dynamics and foster your skills to understand the mechanisms that you can control to redirect your bond to yourself towards a healing dynamic.
Payment: I accept private pay and private insurance. Latter will reimburse the full costs of the sessions within usually two weeks – a very uncomplicated process for all involved. Invoices are sent out to you via email at the beginning of every month. Statutory insurances are, of course, also an option. Here you will need you to apply for “Kostenerstattung” via your insurance – a slightly more complex process of reimbursemsent which I will gladly guide you through. For specific rates and scheduling please contact me.
