What should I know?
​This site showcases practitioners offering English language services in Germany. Some may offer services in German or in other languages as well. Clicking on individual practitioner's profiles will help you find more information about them and link to their individual websites.
​
Each practitioner in this Collective understands intuitively the process and experience of immigration and expatriation, whether short or long term. This platform in an endeavor to provide one space for those looking to connect with service providers in a language and cultural context that feels relatable. It is in tandem a space for professionals who themselves have expatriated, to connect with a community of like-minded peers who can offer guidance and support in navigating professional life abroad. This is a space to lift one another up.
As the collective connector we are however limited and are not able to answer questions about availability, suitability or individual services directly, yet we do hope to help you match with someone who can support you with what you are looking for! This is a journey we are all on.

Qualifications & Police checks​
​
Before providers join the TherapyCollective.de they are required to provide evidence of their Qualification, Professional registration and local Police clearance documentation.
It is good practice for all providers working with children or vulnerable adults to apply for new police clearance documents every two years. If a provider is working with children in a school the school will always require a copy of this up-to-date police certificate to be kept on their files.
​
Providers should also maintain an ongoing record of their continuous learning and reflections. Many international professional bodies require evidence of continuous learning to maintain professional registration. However, not all do and we cannot confirm or monitor whether your provider is taking the necessary steps to stay up to date with current practice standards. However, the fact that they seek to be part of a multidisciplinary community within which to grow and learn is a good sign!

Disclaimer:
While we screen and verify members' qualifications and maintain regular communication with them, we cannot guarantee any therapist's suitability for your specific needs. We recommend checking professional registrations on therapists' websites before engagement. Members typically hold registration with boards in their country of origin, and some may have additional registration in Germany.​
