What is Integrative Therapy (Petzold)?

Integrative Therapy (Petzold) is a holistic, multi-method form of psychotherapy that works with the whole person – body, emotions, thoughts, relationships, environment and life situations.  Instead of following only one school of therapy, it brings together well-researched methods (talk therapy, body awareness, movement, mindfulness/metacognition, art therapy and conflict resolution) into one coherent approach. “Therapy can be offered both individually and in a group format. “In parts of Europe – for example in Austria and Switzerland – Integrative Therapy is formally recognized and can, in many cases, be covered by public health insurance

  • explore your thoughts and feelings and how they are connected
  • pay attention to the body (tension, breathing, posture, movement)
