Claudia Pristernik

Claudia Pristernik is a psychotherapist as well as a clinical and health psychologist with many years of broad professional experience in a wide variety of clinical and social-pedagogical settings. For many years, she worked with children, adolescents, and families under severe stress, often in complex life situations that require clear assessment, composure, and professional confidence. A particular focus of her work lies in clinical psychological diagnostics, especially in the field of child and adolescent psychology, where precise clarification, careful differentiation, and a good sense for development play central roles.

In her independent practice, she accompanies children, adolescents, adults and families with great experience, professional prudence and a warm, attentive view of individual life stories. Her therapeutic work is based on structure, clarity and a respectful approach to inner stress and family dynamics. Colleagues particularly appreciate her high level of professional competence, her reliability and her calm presence.
