The psychology team at Evangelisches Krankenhaus offers clinical-psychological treatment and counseling as well as psychotherapeutic support for patients and relatives. By applying health-promoting measures, the patient is supported in coping with the illness and dealing with it in a self-responsible way – helping them to help themselves.

Interdisciplinary cooperation is based on a general biopsychosocial disease model that includes biological, social and psychological factors and their interaction in the development and maintenance of disorders.
The clinical psychology and psychotherapy team is responsible for all departments at Evangelisches Krankenhaus and covers a wide range of activities.
