Dr Birgit Schreiber

Licensed Psychologist

I am a dedicated psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience, earning my Ph.D. in psychology in 2012 after beginning my practice in 2000. I take an optimistic and active approach, guiding clients toward growth, resilience, and meaningful change. For the past six years, I have worked exclusively online.

About Me

I offer an optimistic and active approach to psychotherapy, drawing on over two decades of experience. Working exclusively online, I create a supportive space where we can actively explore challenges. My aim is to cultivate your natural strengths, helping you navigate life's complexities. We'll work together to build greater resilience and discover pathways to meaningful change. This approach suits those seeking flexible, accessible support for personal growth.

Approach

Online sessions move at a purposeful, hopeful pace where we set clear steps and keep returning to what matters most. I meet adults and couples from Denzlingen and beyond, working in English or German and using practical between-session tasks to extend insights into daily life. Together we track patterns—anger, anxiety, mood dips, relationship cycles, trauma responses—and I offer focused questions, emotion naming, and behaviour-linked experiments to turn reactivity into choice. This approach tends to suit people seeking steady, accessible work that builds lasting coping and clearer connection.
