Our social and financial counseling service provides support in finding suitable offers for relief and clarifying the applicable requirements.
In the event of emotional stress, excessive demands due to care responsibilities or dealing with illness and death, the psychosocial counseling service offers confidential and supportive discussions and helps in the search for further support services.
