Outpatient and Day Clinic Services
At the OVID Clinic Berlin, you have access to the OVID Practice - our Outpatient Clinic and a comprehensive range of partial-inpatient treatment options, available in the form of a Day Clinic or Evening Clinic. A Weekend Clinic is being planned. Together we will find the right format for your change and healing process. The focus is on you: With a scientific approach that ranges from neurobiology to psychotherapy, we define the appropriate therapeutic methods for you.
Day Clinic
As part of the Day Clinic, we offer intensive medical, therapeutic, and nursing care, Monday to Friday from 8.30 to 16.30 - including breakfast in buffet-style and lunch with menu selection. Of course, we also accommodate intolerances and special dietary requirements.
Our program includes individual and group therapies, creative and physical therapies, as well as relaxation techniques, coaching on topics related to sleep and a healthy lifestyle, as well as yoga, meditation, and mindfulness exercises as part of a holistic approach to learning and growth.
The Day Clinic offers its program in German and English. If there are enough English-speaking patients on site, the group sessions are also held in English. We can also offer individual therapies in French and Egyptian Arabic.
The Outpatient Clinic
In addition to the Day Clinic, the Outpatient Clinic at the OVID Clinic Berlin provides services for people who wish to consult us for individual therapy.
Initial consultations with interested parties and prospective patients take place here, and outpatient psychotherapies with and without ketamine augmentation are carried out for independent-paying individuals and private patients.
In addition, there is integration-focused psychotherapy for people who have had psychedelic experiences in non-medical contexts and want to learn how to deal with them better.
A further pillar of the Outpatient Clinic is therapeutic bridging of the time until admission to the Day or Evening Clinic, as well as aftercare upon discharge from partial inpatient care.
Evening Clinic
The English-language Evening Clinic is offered on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 5.30 p.m. to 9.00 p.m. - equivalent to half a day of partial inpatient.
In this time, we offer medical, therapeutic, and nursing care, which also includes a buffet dinner. In addition, we provide individual and group therapy, relaxation techniques, yoga, and creative therapies.
If patients at the Evening Clinic would like to attend augmented sessions with ketamine as part of their treatment plan, these can be carried out in the Outpatient Clinic after prior arrangement.
In addition to our personalized, pre-structured treatment processes, we are also available to arrange intensive treatment plans for patients with specific needs, wishes and resources that go beyond the services offered by the Evening Clinic.
Innovative, Complementary and Psychedelic Treatment Options - Ketamintherapie
In addition to our guideline therapies, our individualized treatment plan includes psychedelic medicine, behavioral and lifestyle medicine, physical and physiotherapy, massage and therapeutic services tailored to our patients' problems, such as counselling for chronic pain, the planned discontinuation of antidepressants, and, if necessary, other psychotropic medications, as well as sexual therapy counselling.
Psychedelic therapy strategies are only included in the Day Clinic program if deemed appropriate and at the patient's request. Depending on the indication and symptoms, up to two sessions of ketamine-augmented psychotherapy take place per week in an individual or group setting. Non-pharmacological techniques for working with altered states of consciousness, such as music and trance journeys, VR interventions and immersive breathwork, are available to all patients at the Day Clinic.
