About us

Two friends, dynamic consultant psychiatrists at Cologne’s largest psychiatric centre, Köln-Merheim and Bonn University Hospital decided to tackle a new challenge.
We treat all illnesses of the psychiatric spectrum, we have a special interest in the treatment of stage fright or performance anxiety - in journalists, politicians, actors and - most commonly, musicians.

Contact us - help is only a mouseclic away.
