Psychotherapy & Coaching in English

English Sessions – Psychotherapy & Coaching with Katharina Treder | Berlin & Online

Berlin-Kreuzberg & online | Private Practice | No Long Waiting Times

Welcome! I’m Katharina Treder — a certified psychological counsellor and licensed practitioner for psychotherapy (Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie) based in Berlin-Kreuzberg. I offer psychotherapy and personality coaching in English for self-paying clients, both in person and online.

My work is holistic, systemic, and method-integrative. I believe that being truly yourself — understanding and accepting who you are — is the foundation for a healthy and happy life.

You are right, just as you are.

Do you feel alone with your suffering?

Do you feel like you don’t really fit in anywhere? Even if you sometimes have the feeling that there’s something wrong with you and everyone else is doing much better, I can assure you that your issues are not as rare as you sometimes think.

What I Offer

(private / self-pay)

Psychotherapy

Individual therapy for adults dealing with emotional distress, life crises, or deep-rooted patterns. Sessions are available without long waiting times — typically within two weeks of your first enquiry.

Focus areas include:

  • social anxiety and other forms of anxiety
  • low self-worth and loneliness
  • burnout and stress
  • life crises and loss of meaning
  • relationship conflicts
  • sexuality

My approach goes beyond talk therapy. We work cognitively, experientially, and body-awareness-based — because lasting change requires not just understanding, but feeling that change is possible.

Personality Coaching & Life Coaching

Not about performance or self-optimisation — but about finding clarity, reconnecting with your authentic self, and building resilience.

Coaching can help with:

  • Understanding your own patterns, beliefs, and blocks
  • Personal and professional decision-making
  • Navigating major life transitions
  • Stress management and healthy boundaries
  • Strengthening self-confidence and self-awareness

My Approach

I work systemically and holistically — meaning I look at you in the context of your relationships, life systems, and inner world. Mind, body, and emotions are equally valued in our work together.

Methods I draw on include:

  • Systemic therapy and counselling
  • Gestalt therapy
  • Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and Radical Honesty
  • Body-awareness and embodiment techniques
  • Hypno-systemic approaches
  • Mindfulness and meditation

About Me

Porträt von Katharina Treder, Coach für Persönlichkeitsentwicklung in Berlin und online

I hold a state-recognised licence as a Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie and am a certified systemic counsellor and coach. My academic background is in linguistics and communication psychology (B.A., University of Kassel & Université Paul Valéry, Montpellier).

Before establishing my practice, I spent 2.5 years travelling — studying alternative healing traditions in Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and India. This experience, alongside conventional training, informs my integrative, open-minded perspective on mental health and wellbeing.

I am a member of the Verband Freier Psychotherapeuten (VFP).

Sessions are available in English, German, and Polish.
