When you need more than counseling: university clinic (Hochschulambulanz)
We did not find a university psychotherapy clinic in Fulda. One of the nearest is the clinic of the Universität Kassel. A Hochschulambulanz is a psychotherapy clinic run by a university. It offers psychotherapy if you have a mental illness, and health insurance pays for it. There is often a wait, so reach out early.

For apprentices in Fulda
Apprentices have no Studierendenwerk. For problems at work, with your training or at vocational school, the training advisors (Ausbildungsberatung) at your chamber can help: the IHK (Chamber of Industry and Commerce) or the Handwerkskammer (Chamber of Skilled Crafts). They are neutral and hear both sides. Training advice is a legal duty of the chambers (Section 76 of the Vocational Training Act). If you are struggling emotionally, your family doctor is a good first point of contact. The 116 117 service arranges appointments for an initial psychotherapy consultation.

What is Studifit?
Psychological counseling
that prevents mental health crises before they start.
At Studifit, you talk to counselors with a bachelor's degree in psychology, supervised by licensed psychotherapists. Many of them have only just finished their own degree or are in a master's program right now. Studifit is Psychofit's service just for students and apprentices, in one-on-one video sessions. For example on topics like these:offering from Psychofit
Stress · Overload
Classes, work, deadlines: it all hits at the same time.
Which of these doesn't actually have to happen this week?
Note: unlike psychotherapy, we make no diagnoses and do not treat acute mental disorders that require medical treatment.
Why Studifit?
Three principles. So you know how we work.
Evidence-based.
- Supervision by licensed psychotherapists
- B.Sc. Psychology (min.)
- Evidence-based methods
All counselors hold at least a bachelor's degree in psychology, and many are continuing with a master's. They work with evidence-based methods and are continuously supervised by licensed psychotherapists.
Personal.
- Your goals, your pace
- Close to student and trainee life
- One-on-one video sessions
- Matching
You and your counselor decide on goals, frequency and approach together. Many counselors have only just finished their own degree and know exam season, thesis writing and part-time jobs from their own experience. On request, our matching suggests the counselors who fit your concern.
Confidential.
- No health record entries
- Your school and employer learn nothing
- Privacy is our priority
Session contents stay between you and your counselor. Your college, your training company, your family and your health insurer learn nothing about the counseling. Our website and database run on servers in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
