Psychologists

For counseling clients pay the cost themselves.

For psychotherapy a part of the cost can be reimbursed by insurances. Depending on the insurance it varies a lot how much will be reimbursed per session:

  • Basic health insurance (KVG): this requires a «ärztliche Anordnung». Please also inquire with your basic insurance in advance whether additional conditions may apply due to any savings models
  • Supplementary insurance (VVG) (see overview of the association of the swiss psychotherapists): please inquire in advance with your supplementary insurance whether and which exact cost coverage exists and whether a “ärztliche Überweisung” (not a “ärztliche Anordnung”) is required
  • Disability insurance IV
  • Accident insurance
  • Victim support
  • Foreign private insurance
  • School congregation
