Important Note: During the initial session, regardless of the client’s condition, therapist Marco carefully considers whether the circumstances are conducive to establishing a trusting therapeutic relationship. Based on this assessment, he thoughtfully decides whether it is appropriate to begin the follow-up process, ensuring that the client feels supported and understood from the very start.
Satisfaction policy
It is of crucial importance for the therapist Marco Mateus that the client is on the right path and feels good along the way. Hence, a satisfaction policy was created, according to which, if clients feel that the sessions are not helping them in a significant way until the seventh session (except for the initial anamnesis session), the total amount paid will be refunded.
Treatment for teenagers
- The involvement of the family or a close relative will be necessary.
- During treatment, follow-up telephone calls are made to the teenager's parents or legal guardians to monitor their progress and provide comprehensive advice to the family.
Treatment for adults
- The contact of a parent or a trusted person will be necessary.
- For persons aged 18 years or older, a parent or close relative can be present at the first medical history session, although this is not mandatory.
