Stefanie Behrendt
Therapeutic Counselor
“I offer integrative Gestalt-based therapy tailored to your unique needs. My approach also addresses socio-political topics like feminism as well as climate & social justice for a holistic, socially conscious experience.”
About Me
***In person sessions in Berlin (Monday, Wednesday and Friday). Online appointments also available.***
I believe in creating a warm, light, and non-judgmental space where you can embark on a journey of self-discovery. My integrative approach combines humanistic, body-oriented, systemic, and behavioral therapy methods, tailored to your unique needs. I’m passionate about including societal issues such as feminism, anti-racism, and climate justice in my work because I believe that what happens on a collective level can deeply impact how we feel as individuals.
I grew up in Southern Germany and spent much of my twenties abroad. My diverse experiences—from working in the business world to transitioning into therapy—have shaped who I am today. These experiences allow me to understand and connect with people from various backgrounds, helping you feel truly seen and heard.
Approach
Every person is unique, that's why I adapt the methods I use to your individual needs and preferences. I aim to create a space where you truly feel seen and feel comfortable to completely open up. With this as a foundation we then explore together what works best for you. In some sessions this may be pure talk therapy, in others we may use elements from Gestalt therapy such as role play, or mindfulness exercises that incorporate the body. You decide what feels right for you.
In coaching, we focus on specific goals and work toward them in a structured way. In therapy, we explore past and present life events, usually over a longer period, to support deep and lasting change. During our initial consultation, we’ll determine which path is right for you.
Services
My clients often seek therapy with a variety of concerns, including:
• Navigating stressful life situations (relationship issues, breakups, job loss,...)
• Coping with depression, stress, and anxiety
• Seeking clarity and understanding of personal behaviors and patterns
• Addressing unresolved childhood experiences
• Improving relationships and learning how to set healthy boundaries
• Navigating work stress and unhealthy workplace environments
• Facing challenges related to cultural identity and integration
• Addressing Climate Anxiety, Eco Distress, and Climate Grief
I offer a sliding scale with reduced rates for those with lower incomes. If you're in a position to pay more, your contribution helps make therapy accessible to others in need. Please reach out if you’d like to discuss these options.
