"Mindfulness" is now successfully used as behavioral therapy.
In psychotherapy, "mindfulness" is now successfully used as behavioral therapy. Mindfulness means to direct one's attention deliberately and not judgmental to the conscious experience of the moment. The patient learns to pay attention to the body functions such as breathing in the course of psychotherapy and deals with a positive purpose in life. In this way he perceives the "negative" things or the illness as no longer so impairing and directs his thoughts towards health. As examples one can mention the syndrome of restless legs: Patients experienced the painful "leg fidgeting" after performing the mindfulness exercises as no longer so impairing. The integration of "mindfulness" is particularly helpful in the treatment of depression.
Apart from "mindfulness", probably more elements of psychotherapy can be used to focus on health and physical recovery.
A polarization between academic medicine and mental Healing is not useful. Rather, a simultaneous application of common medicine and spiritual healing to improve the state of health and the course of patients' disease. I would therefore like to call for this, to cooperate even more closely between the disciplines in the medical and complementary medicine sector.
36 Years Experience
Online in Berlin, Germany
Berlin's reputation as a hub for creativity, counterculture, and radical self-expression attracts artists, LGBTQ+ individuals, and young migrants from across Europe, generating a therapy community with particularly strong expertise in identity, queer relationships, trauma, and the psychological challenges of creative careers. The German statutory health insurance system funds a significant number of therapy sessions annually through Kassenzulassung-approved providers — though waiting times for publicly funded slots are often long and many residents supplement with private care. Berlin's large Turkish, Arabic, and Eastern European communities drive demand for culturally competent and multilingual therapists, and the city has a well-established network of English-language practitioners serving its large expat population. Berlin's complex history — encompassing division, reunification, and proximity to living memory of authoritarian rule — shapes ongoing themes of political identity, freedom, and intergenerational trauma in clinical work.
