Dipl. Pol. Ulla Stoeppler
Gestalt Therapy in Hamburg-Eppendorf
Let’s start with a conversation.
The first step often takes the most courage. It is also where change begins. Whether you have one clear question or simply sense that you need support: you are warmly welcome to get in touch, with no obligation and at your own pace. We can work in English throughout — sessions, phone calls and emails.
Give me a call.
A short call in English is often the easiest way to get a first impression. If I am in a session, I will call you back — reliably and soon.
Write to me.
Tell me about your concern by email. I read every message myself, and your details are of course treated in strict confidence.
Come and see me.
My practice sits in the heart of Hamburg-Eppendorf — a quiet, sheltered room away from everyday life, and easy to reach.
An investment in yourself.
As a private practice for psychotherapy, I can offer you a protected setting, well away from bureaucratic hurdles.
This has clear advantages for you:
Help without the wait: We can start soon, with no long waiting list.
Full discretion: Diagnoses stay private — there is no insurer’s file.
Freedom to choose: Length and frequency follow what you need.
Fees & appointments.
Transparency builds trust. My fees are guided by the Gebührenordnung für Heilpraktiker, the official German fee schedule for the profession. Each session is invoiced to you privately afterwards.
The costs at a glance:
Individual therapy (60 min): 95 euros
Couples therapy (90 min): 150 euros
Initial consultation (20 min): The initial consultation, so we can get to know each other, is free of charge.
Reimbursement:
Statutory health insurers (gesetzliche Krankenkassen) do not usually cover these costs. If you have private health insurance or supplementary cover for Heilpraktiker treatment, reimbursement in full or in part is often possible. Please check this directly with your insurer beforehand.
Cancellations:
An appointment is reserved for you alone. If you cannot keep it, please cancel at least 24 hours in advance (on working days). I hope you understand that for later cancellations I have to charge the fee.
What happens next.
The chemistry between us decides how well therapy works. So that you can feel whether we are a good fit and whether you are comfortable with me, we always begin with a conversation that commits you to nothing.
How we begin together:
Free initial consultation: We take about 20 minutes to look at your concern and go through any open questions.
First appointment: If we decide to work together, we arrange a first session at the practice soon after.
Your rhythm: We set the length and frequency of the sessions that follow together — whatever suits you.
My licence.
Well grounded and state-recognised:
I run my practice as a licensed Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie — a state-issued German licence to practise psychotherapy under the Heilpraktikergesetz. It confirms my competence to work in a healing capacity, and it gives you a safe, protected setting for our work together.
Licence to practise under the Heilpraktikergesetz, limited to the field of psychotherapy (§1 Abs.3 Heilpraktikergesetz), issued on 9 January 2014 by the Behörde für Gesundheit und Verbraucherschutz, the health and consumer protection authority of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.
