Testimonials

The ASSIP program helped me a lot. I was able to successfully complete my psychotherapy and also discontinue my medication. Since then, I have continued to feel stable and have been able to manage even challenging situations. Over the past few months, I have experienced a lot of self-efficacy and have not had any major crisis moments. I am confident that I will be able to handle difficult situations well in the future, as I have acquired valuable skills that I can rely on at any time.

Ms. B., former ASSIP patient

I would like to thank you once again for your support through ASSIP. The sessions with you were an important boundary experience, in which I felt very well guided. Looking back, it was only thanks to ASSIP that I was able to accept and integrate, and had to integrate, the point I was at.

Ms. G., former ASSIP patient

A lot has changed in the meantime… Even during this very difficult time, I never thought about suicide, thanks to you and your therapy. Today I live by the motto: ‘Giving up is not an option; there are problems, but even more solutions.’ Thank you so much!

Mr. B., former ASSIP patient

The ASSIP brief therapy helped me regain a greater sense of security and feel less at the mercy of these very threatening states. I am also very grateful that I may turn to you again in the future if I reach my limits with this.

Ms. M., former ASSIP patient

I am thinking a lot about that time, about the moment, the attempt, that strange feeling on that day, the fear of never seeing my family again, waking up in the hospital, that second chance, my wife’s eyes looking at me, the moment I could hold my children in my arms, the emotional sessions with you… You gave me endless support and hope. For that I want to thank you. Forever.

Nicolas D., former ASSIP patient

I thank you very much for your valuable ASSIP work, including the reports. Already two of my patients appreciated these—initially difficult, but then very constructive—focused personal conversations. And for me as a practicing psychiatrist, it is of course helpful and relieving.

Dr. R.B.D., Specialist in Psychiatry and Psychotherapy

The therapy sessions with you helped me a lot; I always carry the fold-out leaflet with me in my wallet. I know how to deal better with thoughts of death. I recognize the warning signs more clearly and can respond.

Johann P., former ASSIP patient

The ASSIP consultation helped me a lot at the time to process my suicidal crises and move forward. I really appreciate the letters I still receive regularly and thank you; you have helped me a great deal.

Former ASSIP patient

I have learned to seek conversations with the people around me when I am not feeling well. I rarely did that before. I am still grateful to you for your help and have kept everything I learned with you. You have played a decisive role for me and my journey. I now know how to deal better with negative thoughts and recognize the warning signs more clearly and can respond.

Former ASSIP patient

The letters often bring up many memories that I would rather not remember. And yet, I find it important that I receive them. They help me reflect on what I can do when I am not feeling well. It is not always pleasant, but always important. Thank you for your help. You do incredibly valuable work.

Former ASSIP patient

The ASSIP program helped me a lot on my way out of my crisis, especially as the video recording gave me a certain distance from the past. I never would have thought at the time that such a compact program could have such an effect. Over the past two years, I have learned a lot about myself and can now deal with difficult situations differently. Thank you very much for your great and empathetic support.
