Psychotherapy and occupational therapy combined

Burnout and chronic stress show up differently but both affect the body, concentration and drive. Prof. Dr. phil. Thomas Alexander Frank combines psychotherapeutic and occupational-therapy approaches to address both the psychological background and the practical, everyday side of recovery.

The foundation is the 180° Model: need, capability and conviction as a structuring tool for finding your way back to balance.
