Teaching in the psychotherapy outpatient clinic for children and adolescents

The Psychotherapy Outpatient Clinic for Children and Adolescents (PTA KiJu) is integrated into the universities training of future psychotherapists in the Master's degree program in Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy (Msc KliPPt) by carrying out the berufsqualifizierenden Tätigkeit III (ambulant). Our aim is to lay the foundations for future psychotherapeutic work with children and adolescents through learning in real treatment situations.


We believe that effective training in the field of psychotherapy with children and adolescents as part of the berufsqualifizierenden Tätigkeit III (ambulant) can only be realized in a 1:1:1 setting (1 child/adolescent : 1 student : 1 psychotherapist). Licensed child and adolescent psychotherapists supervise students to carry out self-selected psychotherapeutic interventions in psychotherapy with children and adolescents. Scintifically-founded and behavior-based individual feedback for the students (including video recordings) on the skills demonstrated in the real treatment situations is a matter of course for us.

Further information on the content, didactics and scientific focus of our teaching can be found on the website of the Work Unit Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy of Childhood and Adolescence.
