Ms Michaela Klien

CBT Psychotherapist

“In my practice in Pankow, Berlin, I offer psychotherapy based on the established methods of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My therapeutic approach is closely aligned with the latest scientific findings and guidelines for various diagnoses. I do specify in the treatment of OCD and anxiety disorders. ”

About me

My path to becoming a psychotherapist began with my Master’s degree in Psychology at the University of Vienna (2009–2015). Building on this, I completed my training as a Licensed Psychological Psychotherapist at the Center for Psychotherapy at Humboldt University of Berlin from 2017 to 2021, receiving my official licensure (Approbation) in April 2021. To continuously broaden my therapeutic spectrum, I am currently completing further qualification in Group Psychotherapy. Additionally, I earned certifications in sports psychological training and coaching in elite sports between 2019 and 2021. My clinical practice is rooted in several years of experience across outpatient care settings and specialized university clinics. During my training, I deepened my clinical expertise at the Trauma Clinic (ZIPB) and the Specialized Clinic for Anxiety and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders at Humboldt University of Berlin, where I continued working post-licensure. In parallel, I treated patients over several years at Humboldt University’s outpatient institute and provided mental support to athletes at the Olympic Training Center Berlin. I subsequently gained valuable experience in private outpatient psychotherapy at Praxis am Park and Freiraum Psychotherapy. Following a period of running my practice on a part-time basis, I have been working full-time in my own independent psychotherapy practice since January 2024, providing dedicated and individualized psychotherapeutic care.
