About me
Marieke Gattermann

I am Marieke Gattermann (she/her), a licensed psychological psychotherapist with a systemic focus. I work in my private practice in Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg, in German and English.
My approach is systemic and resource-oriented. I look at people in the context of their relationships, history, and environment. I often understand symptoms as earlier attempts at solutions. In therapy, we look together for patterns, strengths, and new ways forward. If helpful, we can also include important people in your life.
