Couples therapy and psychotherapy in English
- in 1160 Vienna or online -
assisting you in improving your health & happiness

Welcome! If you are considering couples therapy or psychotherapy, then this page is for you. If you live in Vienna, Austria and are looking for a therapist who likes working in English, feel free to contact me. My native language is German, but I have been working with English-speaking clients for a long time and feel comfortable doing so. Also, if you are located elsewhere but would like to work with me, I offer online therapy sessions.

My mission is enabling you to say "I feel good. I like my life. I like being myself." I offer to guide you on your journey from agonizing symptoms and conflicted relationships to a life full of meaning, joy, and affectionate relationships.

Sometimes you get stuck

It happens to everyone. Still, many people wait a long time before consulting a psychotherapist. According to statistics, couples even wait for an average of 6 unhappy years! It is not necessary to suffer that long. Psychotherapy and couples therapy have scientifically been proven to be effective. There is also sufficient scientific evidence that online therapy is as effective as on site therapy. If you need help, please reach out to me. As an experienced psychotherapist, I will be happy to support you on your way out of suffering.

How can we work together?

1. You make an
appointment

Picture
Please contact me by email (praxis@sonjaweilguny.at) or fill in the contact form below. Let me know if you would like an individual or couples therapy session, in my practice or online. I will get back to you within one business day and we will find a time slot that fits your preferences. If we meet online, I will send you an invitation link to our encrypted virtual meeting room.

2. We develop your
personalized plan

Picture
The initial consultation is all about you: you can tell me about your challenges or symptoms, your resources and constraints, and your hopes and expectations. I ask you questions in order to understand your needs and goals and we develop a plan for a potential therapy / couples therapy / counseling, tailored to your personal goals. You get to know me and my working style. You can then decide if you would like to embark on the journey together with me.

3. You move forward
to your goal

Picture
We meet at weekly or bi-weekly intervals in our virtual meeting room. We work on your goals and you continue to make progress until you are happy with the outcome and feel ready to conclude our sessions. We will be working as efficiently as possible to keep therapy duration short.

At the moment I cannot take on any new clients. I will update this page as soon as I have free therapy slots available again. Thank you for your understanding. (Jan 30th 2023)

Fees

The fee is 120 Euro for an individual session of 50 minutes and 240 Euro for a couples therapy session of 100 minutes.

In the case of individual psychotherapy due to an ICD-10 diagnosis, you can apply for a partial cost reimbursement from your public health insurance. The current reimbursement is EUR 40 per session (BVAEB and SVS) or EUR 28.93 per session (ÖGK and KFA). I will assist you with the application form. Due to the current pandemic, reimbursements are also possible for online therapy sessions. Private insurances often cover another part of the costs. The amount varies depending on your individual contract. Please consult your private insurance company for details. The remaining amount is tax-deductible as medical expenses with an income-related deductible.

Legal disclaimer (for online therapy sessions)

In some cases, online therapy is not the right treatment for you:
  • if you have pressing suicidal thoughts (e.g. your thinking narrows down and you can only think about suicide; you already have elaborate plans on when, where and how to commit suicide; you have physical impulses to go ahead with these plans)
  • if you are intoxicated (with drugs, alcohol etc.)
  • if you are psychotic (you have hallucinations and see or hear things that others do not see or hear)
In these cases you need urgent local help which online therapy cannot provide. Please call a local institution or hospital or an ambulance as soon as possible.
By working with me, you affirm that you have read and understood these limitations of online therapy.
 
I am an Austrian psychotherapist based in Vienna, Austria. Therefore, the laws and regulations of Austria apply, also for online sessions. The legal location of contract fulfillment is Austria, also for online sessions.
Austria has been a pioneer in psychotherapy and has a very elaborate psychotherapy law, an extensive code of conduct for psychotherapists and a long training curriculum for psychotherapists, making psychotherapy a highly professional and highly skilled service. Of course, psychotherapy is fully confidential. I am using an encrypted service for the online sessions that adheres to the DSGVO (data safety regulation).
