Lis Breitling
Non-medical Practitioner of Psychotherapy (HeilprG)
Munich, Online (English and German)
Sometimes life confronts us with circumstances that seem unsurmountable. Stress and crisis can manifest in, for example, withdrawal, physical malaise, depression, sleep disorders or anxiety. Having such or any other overwhelming symptoms, it is beneficial to receive professional support – I am glad you found your way here.
About Me
My name is Lis Breitling. I provide psychological counseling, therapy and crisis intervention in English or German at my private practice in Munich and online. I also coach individuals for personal and professional growth.
I lived and worked in the U.S. for 20 years. Having moved between continents twice, I can relate well to what it feels like to start over – from missing certain foods to feeling isolated. I am intimately familiar with both worlds and have worked with individuals from all walks of life and multicultural backgrounds.
