Persönlichkeitscoaching in Düsseldorf

Coaching

Coaching helps with setting up life in a way that it develops in the right direction. It finds application in private, professional and family matters.

Society

We are glad about living in times where it is easy to find professional psychological help. Whenever you require or wish for it. In recent years a close contact to family members as well as in religious matters has faded into the background for many people. However, the pressure with regards to our social life (at work and in private) has steadily increased. For this reason, the need and desire for an exchange in an absolutely trustworthy space, in which we can show ourselves as we are and seek individualized solutions for ourselves has grown tremendously.

In our society, it became the standard to seek professional help from psychotherapists and coaches, which is nothing to be afraid of. We are happy to help you with solving your problems and achieving your goals in a safe and protected environment.

Therapeutic & Coaching Methods

In our office, we use a wide range of therapeutic/coaching methods that allow you to achieve the effects intended in the shortest period of time possible. The methods which will be applied during our meetings entirely depend on you, your problem and your preferences.

We invite you to our office with any problem – here you don’t have to hide anything. We do not judge anyone’s actions or thoughts. Due to our duty of confidentiality, a space is created for you in which you can speak your mind freely without any embarrassment.

We work without any medication

For your information: We work exclusively without any medication! We do not recommend or prescribe any medical preparations. This decision is only eligible when applied by a professional doctor – using medication, however, doesn’t mean therapy or coaching shouldn’t be applied – both of these procedures complement each other.

In the event that your health condition (depression, physical impairment or particular fear regarding a visit) makes it difficult for you to visit our office, we also offer online sessions via videocall.

So, if you have any problem – no matter what kind and to what extent – check with us the possibilities of getting out of it in the shortest amount of time.

My name is Karolina Goralski and I am the owner of the practice.

Since my skills in English do not suffice to conduct a good psychotherapy or coaching sessions in that language, I’ll happily arrange a session for you with one of my colleagues, whose methods are very effective and whose English is excellent.

I wish you very successful sessions so that you quickly reach your desired well-being and/or your goals.

When I’m in the practice, I usually work quietly in the background. My favourite spot is in the lounge and you won’t even notice that I’m there.

Only occasionally I do get the chance to participate in the therapy sessions. I find it particularly great when I can help clients to reduce their fears regarding dogs (dog phobia). That’s my specialty, besides keeping the dogbed warm :)

My name is Jenny Pat Christoffel and I am already looking forward to getting to know you in
person.

You could say that communication has shaped me in every way in my life so far. I was born in Germany and grew up with Polish parents. From an early age, I was so fascinated by the communication of different cultures and languages that I was drawn to foreign countries, especially France and Belgium, for several years during my school and university years. At that time, one thing quickly became clear to me: It is possible to speak a language perfectly, but
successful communication is only possible with empathy and understanding. After my German-French university entrance qualification, I began to study professional multilingualism and then conference interpreting in my Master’s program. In the process, I learned how to listen properly in addition to business-fluent English and French. This skill enables me to concentrate fully on your topic in our coaching sessions.

In my youth I had a serious car accident, which I barely survived. Months of hospitalisation and many operations later, I was finally able to participate in normal everyday life again. Changes resulting from the accident accompanied me in my relationships for a long time. With a lot of self-drive, perseverance and help from outside, I managed to look positively and gratefully into the future and realised how incredibly valuable life is. These deeply formative experiences helped me to develop a special empathy towards my conversation partners and to put myself in the individual life situations of my counterparts very well.

My family and friends have always approached me to talk about their problems and relationship issues. After these conversations I always get the feedback that my intuitive questioning method has helped them a lot to find clarity about their personal emotional situation. Therefore, I decided to further develop these skills and learn professional tools and methods. In 2020, I completed my training as a Systemic Personal & Business Coach at the Coaching Akademie Berlin. Since then, I have been helping clients with a wide range of challenges, whether in their private lives or in a professional context. A matter close to my heart is relationship coaching for people in partnerships and singles, because interpersonal connections fascinate me and in my opinion self-love is a cornerstone for
successful relationships. As a coach, I give you the framework in which you can be yourself and can work out the best possible solution for yourself.

My clients describe me as empathetic, warm, humorous, open-minded, tolerant, outgoing, profound, professional, analytical, clear, sensitive, positive, loving, passionate and energetic.

Hi, my name is Phillip Czarnecki and I look forward to meeting you. First, however, I would like to briefly introduce myself to you. Since my late teenage years I wanted to become a psychologist. Especially the field of psychological coaching and the possibilty for improvement regarding mental health conditions sparked my interest. I felt that my personal skills such as active listening, empathy, impartiality, and solution-oriented work would benefit this occupation. As part of my studies in psychology (M Sc), I subsequently completed a licensed training to become a psychological coach. Since I’ve completed my studies in English, I’m offering my coaching at the highest level in that particular language.

I was born in Germany as the child of polish parents. Thanks to my bilingual education in German and Polish, I have a deep understanding concerning respective culture and can adapt my coaching to the client’s preferred language. After completing my master’s degree in psychology, I additionally concluded a training to become a mindfulness teacher. I am convinced that a combination of traditional psychological approaches and alternative methods such as mindfulness and meditation provide the best results for improving the overall mental health condition of my clients.

Please, feel free to contact me and we will arrange a suitable appointment. I’m looking forward to meet you in person!

Costs

All therapists and coaches working at the psychotherapeutic practice are well experienced and excellently trained. They utilize a variety of highly effective therapeutic/coaching methods.

Yes, there is also an option to receive psychotherapy for free through health insurances in Germany. From our experience, there are the following advantages and disadvantages that accompany this option:

Advantage Disadavantages
  • Costs are fully covered by the health insurance
  • If your inquiry is validated by the health insurance company, the waiting time for a first therapy session is currently round about a year.
  • The methods applied are strictly limited by insurance companies, and therapists are only allowed to use the given methods.
  • From our experience, we know that these therapies usually last for years. I do not want to comment on the success of such therapy, but perhaps you yourself know people that ended up in therapy for years.
  • Deciding for this therapeutical route would be accompanied by an entry in your records, which has serious implications if you want to purchase an insurance (health, pension or life insurance, as well as when choosing to become a civil servant) in the future.

Based on our experience, we can say that most of our clients (even those with really severe problems) usually need 3-5 sessions to completely solve their issue. We work as swiftly as possible so that we can say goodbye to you in a healthy and satisfied manner. Our clients often experience significant changes after the first session.

It is best to contact us by phone so that we can further answer your questions specifically. Our practice coordination firstly will find the ideal contact person (considering your topic, personality, language, and methods required) and inform you about the exact costs with this therapist/coach.

Furthermore, we’re usually able to offer your first appointment to you within a few days. We are also there for you on evenings and weekends.

We are also there for you on evenings and weekends. Your sessions will not be recorded by any health insurance company (you won’t have any future disadvantages with regards to your insurance or if you plan on becoming a civil servant).

You can always decide whether you want to schedule a follow-up session (you are not bound to us). The frequency of meetings is tailored to your needs.

Our evaluation (whether it’s on Google Business/Google Maps or on jameda.de) speaks a very clear language with regards to satisfied clients.

We encourage you to try it out for yourself.
