Our Psychotherapy Approach at Vienna Praxis

Evidence-based Methodologies

All our clinicians are doctoral-level psychologists with in-depth training in empirically supported treatment methods. We stay on top of current research to help our patients receive the most effective care for their presenting problems. 

Psychological research has resulted in a vast array of treatment methodologies, however only a limited number have received scientific backing.
