Treatment Center for Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Addiction Disorders South

Bremen-South Day Clinic

Our day clinic services are located as close as possible to the patient's place of residence in the Bremen-Mitte, Bremen-Ost, Bremen-Süd and Bremen-West regions.

In the day clinics, treatment takes place on weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.; some day clinics also offer services on weekends. Based on an individualized treatment plan, multidisciplinary individual and group therapy is provided.

At the Buntes Tor counseling and treatment center, we treat people with mental illnesses and addictions from the southern district of the city. The Buntes Tor center houses the social psychiatric counseling service, the outpatient clinic, and the acute and regular day clinic.

Our teams consist of physicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, nurses, psychologists, and social workers. For outpatient and day clinic programs, patients are continuously supported by a dedicated therapist. Our goal is to avoid inpatient treatment as much as possible by providing care close to home with familiar therapists.

Day clinic treatment

In our day clinic, we offer partial inpatient treatment. This means that patients spend the day with us and return home in the evening. Admission to the acute day clinic is for the same reasons as full inpatient treatment.

Regular day clinic treatment takes place after an acute phase of illness. We offer the mentally ill patient an individualized therapeutic framework that incorporates their everyday life in order to overcome the acute crisis.

  • Diagnostics
  • Individual, couple and family counseling
  • Discussion group, psychoeducational groups, cooking group, aftercare group
