Psychotherapy in Switzerland: reimbursement, first session and approaches
Since July 2022, psychotherapy has been covered by basic health insurance (LAMal) in Switzerland when prescribed by a doctor. The initial prescription covers 15 sessions. Beyond that, an extension request must be submitted to the insurer. Federally recognized psychotherapists can bill the insurance company directly.
The first interview
The first appointment usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes. The therapist listens to you, explores your concerns, and assesses together whether their approach is suitable for your situation. There is no obligation to continue after this initial consultation. A relationship of trust between patient and therapist is essential for the success of therapy.
The main therapeutic approaches
Psychotherapists offer various approaches: cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychoanalysis, systemic therapy, EMDR, and person-centered therapy. Each method has its specific indications. Don't hesitate to ask the practitioner about their approach during your initial consultation.
