Psychological counseling consists of supportive conversations, counseling sessions or crisis interventions for individuals and couples who need low-threshold counseling. The couples counseling service is aimed primarily at people in lower income groups. Waiting times are common.
Possible topics include:

• Psychological support in cases of conflict over the pregnancy (Schwangerschaftskonflikt)
• Unfulfilled wish to have children
• Counseling on topics of sexuality
• Couples counseling
• Fear of HIV or other sexually transmitted infections (STI), or dealing with a positive test result (except at the Steglitz-Zehlendorf center)
For the specific focus, please check the website of the relevant center.
