The values and working methods of Mag Sonja Knefel

In order to provide you with the best possible and, above all, state-of-the-art treatment, Mag. Sonja Knefel has opted for an integrative treatment approach. In contrast to monotherapeutic approaches (e.g., pure behavioral therapy), it is not limited to a single therapeutic framework. An integrative approach can be understood as flexible and holistic, combining elements from different schools of therapy rather than limiting itself to a single model.

The focus of her work is not only on symptoms, but also on personality development, biographical patterns, and subjective experience. Furthermore, Mag. Sonja Knefel supports you with psychological coaching and mental training in the development and implementation of solution-focused strategies to achieve your personal and professional goals.

Humor is a core theme of her therapeutic work. Psychotherapy can also be fun! Humor in a therapeutic context is a powerful tool. Humor has many different purposes in therapy:

  • trust building
  • relationship building
  • change of perspective
  • Change in thought patterns
  • Positive influence on brain structure by creating lightness

In addition to psychotherapeutic treatment, JUVENIS in Vienna offers other services related to health and prevention, charisma and posture, andexternal beauty, which will make you glow on the outside and increase your well-being.
