Empowering You to Live Free from Anxiety and Panic

Our Journey: Guided by a Clear Vision

Since 2013, Daniela and Klaus Bernhardt have been leading a psychotherapy practice in Berlin, dedicated to helping individuals overcome anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. In 2017, they founded the Institute for Modern Psychotherapy, collaborating with doctors, psychotherapists, and neuroscientists to develop innovative and science-backed therapy approaches.

Their groundbreaking work led Klaus Bernhardt to publish three highly acclaimed self-help guides, which have quickly become popular among those seeking effective support. His first book, Panikattacken und andere Angststörungen loswerden (Free Yourself from Panic Attacks and Other Anxiety Disorders), remained on Germany’s Spiegel bestseller list for over two years and has been translated into 25 languages, reaching a worldwide audience.

Bringing the Method to an International Audience

To make this transformative approach accessible to English-speaking individuals, the team expanded by adding Esther Seibt, an experienced therapist and former anxiety sufferer. After overcoming severe anxiety through the Bernhardt Method, Esther became a therapist herself and joined the mission. Now, she brings both her expertise and her personal success story to the English-language course, offering an authentic and compassionate voice to clients seeking freedom from anxiety and panic. 

A United Team with a Shared Mission

This Team has committed to making relief from anxiety and panic accessible worldwide. While Klaus and Daniela Bernhardt continue to refine and expand the Bernhardt Method, Esther Seibt provides compassionate guidance for English-speaking clients, ensuring that each part of the program resonates with those seeking lasting change.
