When psychological challenges arise in a company, it takes more than good leadership. It requires a deep understanding of psychological, communicative, and operational contexts.

We look at people, leadership, teams, and the organization as a whole, developing concrete and tailored solutions from there.

Fast Support

Psychological challenges can rarely be planned for. When support is needed at short notice, we are flexibly available to help quickly assess the situation, clarify priorities, and restore operational capability.

Confidential & Professional

Particularly with sensitive topics, confidentiality is crucial. With psychological experience and tact, we create a safe environment where even difficult issues can be openly addressed.

Individual Approach

As an external occupational psychology practice, we bring an independent and professional perspective to the situation. We help identify underlying dynamics, view contexts with greater distance, and develop new perspectives and solutions.

Occupational Psychology for a Healthy and Strong Work Environment

With occupational psychology expertise, we support companies, executives, and teams facing psychological challenges in everyday work. An occupational psychologist is often sought when situations can no longer be resolved solely through leadership or organizational measures. We help identify deeper dynamics, assess situations, and develop suitable courses of action.

In doing so, we look not only at individual employees, but also at personality, leadership, team dynamics, and organizational structures. Whether dealing with mental illnesses or stress, addiction, bullying, boundary violations, escalated conflicts, deaths or other traumatic events, or reintegration – we develop concrete solutions for the affected individual, the team, and the company.

Our occupational psychology consulting is individually tailored to your company and your situation. We support you on-site, online, or at our offices in Düsseldorf.

When is occupational psychology support useful?

Psychological Abnormalities

Withdrawal, severe mood swings, significantly altered behavior, or signs of mental illnesses such as depression or anxiety disorders can unsettle executives and teams. We help classify observations, prepare for conversations, and develop suitable courses of action – without rushing into diagnoses.

Overload & Burnout

Persistent stress, overload, or burnout can have very different causes – professional, personal, or a combination of both. We help assess stress factors, determine what kind of support is helpful, and establish how to manage them effectively in everyday working life.

Performance, Motivation & Turnover

When performance drops, motivation decreases, absenteeism increases, or employees leave the company, the causes are often not immediately apparent. Unrealistic targets, leadership dynamics, stress factors, or unfavorable structures can play a role just as much as personal factors. We help identify underlying connections and derive suitable changes.

Changes in Team & Leadership

New managers, changed team compositions, or altered roles can trigger uncertainty, resistance, and tension. We help understand emerging dynamics, clarify expectations, and constructively realign collaboration.

Difficult Personalities

Challenging behavior and difficult dynamics can place a heavy burden on executives and teams. We help you better understand personality, behavior, and interpersonal interactions, set professional boundaries, and develop an approach that takes both individuals and the company's interests into account.

Conflicts & Bullying

When conflicts escalate or bullying and stressful dynamics become entrenched, it is often not enough to look only at visible behavior. We examine backgrounds, relationships, and structures, supporting you in developing appropriate ways to resolve issues and achieve more constructive collaboration.

Difficult Employee Discussions

Terminations, formal warnings, critical feedback, or conversations regarding inappropriate behavior are among the most demanding leadership tasks. We provide support with preparation, conversation management, and potential next steps so that even difficult topics can be addressed clearly, respectfully, and professionally.

Addiction in the Workplace

Suspected substance abuse or addiction often presents executives with particular challenges. We support you in assessing the situation, preparing for difficult conversations, and developing appropriate courses of action – with a clear and responsible focus on the individual, the team, and the company.

Boundary Violations & Assaults

Boundary violations, inappropriate behavior, or assaults can severely burden individual employees and entire teams. We help assess the situation, consider different perspectives, and develop appropriate next steps for those affected, executives, the team, and the company.

Reintegration & Return

Following an extended mental illness or a stressful phase in life, returning to the workplace can be a sensitive process for all involved. We assist with reintegration and BEM (operational integration management) by helping to shape communication, expectations, and framework conditions to ensure a successful professional reentry.

Crises & Stressful Events

Deaths, incidents of violence, job loss, restructuring, or other drastic changes can heavily burden employees and teams. We help psychologically assess such situations, provide orientation, and appropriately support individuals, executives, and teams through the process.

What Occupational Psychology Can Achieve

Occupational psychology creates orientation when psychological, communicative, or structural factors burden everyday working life or stall developments. It helps identify underlying dynamics, soundly assess situations, and derive appropriate measures. As a result, executives gain greater confidence in their actions, teams can address conflicts more constructively, and employees can receive more targeted support.

This is not only about crises. Occupational psychology can also have a preventive effect, strengthen mental health, improve collaboration, and foster conditions under which people remain motivated, productive, and committed to the company long-term.

How Occupational Psychology Consulting Works

Initial Contact & Quick Orientation

During our first conversation, you outline the situation, the occasion, and your specific question. Especially in acute or stressful situations, we quickly clarify what is important right now, who is involved, and what next steps make sense. This provides you with a prompt initial orientation and assessment.

Analysis & Recommendation

In the next step, we take a closer look: What lies beneath the surface of the visible problem? What psychological, communicative, structural, or personal factors are at play? Based on this, we develop a well-founded assessment and recommend which form of support appears appropriate – including the scope and approach.

Tailored Measures

Once we understand your situation in depth, we develop a concept tailored specifically to your company and the concrete issue at hand. This can include executive or employee coaching, one-on-one sessions, team coaching, supervision, workshops, conflict resolution, in-depth analyses, or confidential employee discussions.

Implementation & Flexible Adjustment

The agreed-upon measures are carried out – either on a one-off basis or as ongoing support over a longer period, on-site at your company, at our offices in Düsseldorf, or online. Throughout the process, we continuously review what is working and what needs adjustment.

Evaluation & Next Steps

At the conclusion, we review together what has changed, which measures were helpful, and whether further support is needed. Depending on the situation, a follow-up conversation may suffice or ongoing accompaniment may be advisable.

Who is Occupational Psychology Particularly Useful For?

Occupational psychology consulting can operate at various levels: executive management, leaders, HR, individual employees, or entire teams. We provide support wherever psychological, interpersonal, or organizational challenges arise – whether acutely, preventively, or as part of change processes.

Executive Management & Corporate Leadership

When performance, collaboration, or morale within the company suffer and the causes are unclear, we help identify underlying connections, assess situations, and develop appropriate measures.

Executives & Leaders

We provide support with psychologically burdened or conspicuous employees, difficult personalities, conflicts, and challenging employee discussions – offering confidence and security when leadership alone reaches its limits.

HR & Personnel Managers

For complex psychological and interpersonal issues, we offer an independent external perspective and develop concrete solutions for employees, leaders, teams, or the entire company.

Employees

Individual employees can also receive targeted support – for instance, during times of overload, burnout, personal crises, conflicts, changes, or upon returning after an extended illness. Short-term support can be just as valuable here as ongoing employee coaching.

Teams

During conflicts, stressful dynamics, changes, or extraordinary events, we help teams understand connections, resolve tensions, and return to sustainable collaboration.

Companies Undergoing Change Processes

Restructuring, new managers, changed roles, downsizing, or new team structures can trigger uncertainty and resistance. In change management, we accompany the psychological side of change and support leaders, employees, and teams throughout the process.

Works Councils & Staff Councils

Works and staff councils are frequently key contacts when psychological stress, conflicts, bullying, reintegration, or change processes affect employees. We provide support through independent assessment, professional guidance, and the development of viable solutions.

Social Institutions & Healthcare

Where people work daily with crises, high responsibility, and emotionally demanding situations, the requirements are exceptionally high. Occupational psychology consulting, coaching, and supervision can provide relief, orientation, and stability for teams.

What Does Occupational Psychology Consulting Cost?

In an initial, free-of-charge consultation, we assess your situation and determine the appropriate form of support. This can range from consulting and coaching to supervision, team workshops, or custom-developed measures. Half-day or full-day workshops are also available.

Occupational psychology consulting starts at €270 per hour plus VAT. Additional pricing details can be found in our price list.

We work on-site at your company, at our offices in Düsseldorf, or online. Short-notice appointments as well as evening and weekend slots are also possible by arrangement. We would be happy to discuss in an initial conversation which framework makes the most sense for your inquiry.
