WELCOME
Dear clients, welcome to Inner Spectrum, private practice for systemic-biographical conversation therapy. As the name implies, this method is oriented towards the biographical development of a person and, according to systemics, towards the circumstances of their immediate living environment. No other conversational therapy approach gives you such intensive access to yourself. Systemic-biographical conversation therapy is both highly empathic and person-centered, developmental and resource-oriented, and focused on insight and solutions. For those seeking help who require prompt, discreet counseling (online, in person, by telephone), flexible appointment scheduling and absolute discretion, Inner Spectrum is the contemporary treatment alternative.
APPROACH
A person’s inner spectrum is contradictory and complex, constantly striving for a balance of thoughts, emotional states and feelings. Every individual is unique – and usually as complicated as their time and environment. The present, plagued by climate change, wars, migrations, recessions, digital invasions and pandemics, is full of complications. Rarely has mental health proved to be so coveted and at the same time so endangered.
Who we are and how we weather crises can be traced back to our origins, our development, health and the way we live. Those who are at one with themselves and their circumstances can face changeable developments with confidence. However, more and more people are seeing their world view shaken, experiencing feelings of fear, sadness, shame, loneliness, despair or insecurity.
Inner Spectrum opens up ways and solutions for you to find your way back to emotional balance and mental strength – through analysis, conversations and methodology. Putting your own feelings, thoughts and behavior in relation to your biographical development, its structure, course and meaning and reflecting on this means: changing perspectives, uncovering hidden resources, increasing your body’s own resilience, overcoming problems and finally – gaining poise and inner strength.
Indications
You are welcome to come to my consultation if you are concerned with issues of the following spectrum, whether mentally or emotionally: Fears. Insecurity. Isolation. Self-alienation. Loneliness. Depression. Attachment and separation issues. Co-dependency. Adjustment disorders. Identity and generational conflicts. Gender and integration issues. Transgenerative traumas. Ageing. Grief. Loss. Creative crises. Burnout. Writer’s block. Repositioning. Or perhaps all you need is someone to talk to: Feel free and come to me – I will lend you my ear.
PERFORMANCE
In my practice, systemic-biographical conversation therapy is used in the context of urgent conditions and situations, partnership or generation-specific problems, questions of gender identity and conflicts within the relationship system. Issues within artistic-creative, virtuoso and scientific fields of activity are addressed just as frequently.
Systemic-biographical conversation therapy is both highly empathic and person-centred, developmental and resource-oriented, and focused on insight and solutions. Just a few sessions can help to narrow down a difficult personal, professional, partnership or family situation, make it transparent and position you more securely.
Based on elements of biographical-narrative analysis, methodical conversation and systemic therapy, I help you to recognise cognitive imprints and patterns, to penetrate, question and structure previously unexplained mental and emotional connections and thus gradually stabilise your behaviour and your psychosomatic balance. This also includes making you aware of unused resources that open up ways for you to make decisions, regain trust or even mediation and reconciliation.
DEVELOPMENT
Starting with a short, free preliminary telephone consultation, the collaboration is developed step by step together with you and tailored to your individual needs. The preliminary consultation is followed by 50-minute sessions in which we discuss 1) your concerns, 2) your anamnesis and a more in-depth exchange in three further sessions. After this cycle, we will discuss and reach a decision with you on the continuation or conclusion of the collaboration.
If possible, the first session (clarification of concerns) should take place in person. With the exception of any crisis interventions, subsequent appointments can be held either in person, online or by telephone. In order to condsider the respective life context and personal needs for absolute discretion, home visits and comparable external appointments can also be arranged on special terms in individual cases. Regardless of your preferred option: At Inner Spectrum, appreciation, acceptance, trust, confidentiality, diversity and parity are always fundamental components of the therapeutic self-conception (even without gender*).
MODALITIES
Appointments can be made after a short (free) initial consultation by telephone on +49 176 24 20 11 17 or by e-mail. Further consultations by arrangement. Please also enquire about the current fee rates by e-mail at clients@innerspectrum.care.
Consultations are held in either German or English. Depending on the requirements, the sessions are carried out at low to high frequency – on a short-term or longer-term basis or as crisis interventions. Customised conditions are possible for ongoing collaboration.
Liquidation takes place after conclusion of the contract, at the latest 48 hours before the start of the first call cycle – exclusively by real-time transfer via online banking. Completely missed appointments as well as late cancelled appointments (e.g. less than 24 hours before the start) will be charged at fifty percent of the pro-rated hourly fee.
Expertise
Inner Spectrum is the brainchild of Jörn Jacob Rohwer. Originally known for his encounters with personalities from the arts, music, science, literature and society, Rohwer is now frequently consulted by artists, scientists and virtuosos in his advisory or therapeutic capacity.
After completing postgraduate studies in education, Jewish studies and journalism, and following career stages in Vienna, Berlin, Hamburg, London and Los Angeles, Rohwer, certified as a systemic therapist (DFS), draws on a unique wealth of experience in person-centred communication. He combines elements of biographical analysis, systemic therapy and methodical dialogue in order to lead his counterpart to specific questions, solutions and insights. Rohwer is the only German in his field who, like his predecessors Édouard Roditi, Oriana Fallaci and Georg Stefan Troller, also cultivates dialogue in writing, notably in: Die Seismografie des Fragens, Biografische Gespräche (872 p., Salis, Zurich 2014).
