Treatment is in the hands of experienced specialists. The clinic offers first-class comfort in an atmosphere where patients feel at home.

Treatment concept

At the Hohenegg Private Clinic, each person is recognized for their uniqueness and treated as a partner in a professional relationship. Patients contribute their individual life skills to the treatment, while therapists contribute their professional expertise and experience to the success of the treatment.

 

Treatment process

The inpatient treatment process is divided into three clearly structured phases (stabilization, consolidation, transfer) and is thus optimally linked to the referral and follow-up treatment processes.

 

Treatment focus

Depressive disorders
Depression often occurs in stressful situations or situations involving loss. At the Hohenegg Private Clinic, patients learn to understand these situations and to treat themselves with greater care. This promotes well-being and self-acceptance and reactivates resources.

Burnout and stress crises
Burnout is a stress crisis typical of our times, usually work-related, in which personal reserves of energy dry up.  Treatment focuses on the causes of the crisis. Those affected find a way out of the impasse and learn to improve their external and internal life balance in the long term.

Anxiety disorders
Reduce the symptoms of anxiety, lose the fear of fear, regain the strength to cope with life! Step by step, patients at the Hohenegg Private Clinic learn to approach these goals on their own.

Psychosomatic illnesses
The term psychosomatic illnesses encompasses illnesses that are accompanied by signs of physical suffering, without physical damage being clearly identifiable as the explanation for the symptoms using the diagnostic procedures currently standard in medical science. This is why they are also referred to as physical dysfunctions or functional illnesses.

Specialist expertise
In addition to its main areas of treatment, the Hohenegg Private Clinic also has other areas of expertise, such as the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorders, somatoform disorders, and dissociative disorders.

Trauma-related disorders
The aim of coping with traumatic experiences – such as accidents, disasters, and acts of violence – is to integrate the negative experiences into the individual's life story in such a way that they lose their lasting threatening effect. Therapists with additional training in psychotraumatology support you in individual therapy and/or in group resilience therapy, depending on the prescription.

Physical stress disorders (somatoform disorders) and dissociative disorders
Somatoform and functional disorders are grouped together and referred to as somatic stress disorders according to the new international classification (ICD 11). They are all based on the principle that psychological stress primarily manifests itself through physical symptoms. Multimodal treatment therefore includes careful explanation of the clinical picture, better and healthier ways of dealing with stress, and improved body awareness. Dissociative disorders can occur as a reaction to difficult experiences. They often accompany other mental disorders, such as post-traumatic stress disorder. Those affected try to protect themselves by blocking out memories of traumatic events, thereby reducing psychological stress. This often impairs their stable sense of identity.
