peer agreement (net): +1certified as an alternative practitioner for psychotherapy Explanation: I think this would work better than alternative practitioner for psychotherapy certificate. Instead of "must have a ... certificate" you could write "must be certified as an alternative practitioner...." The Heilpraktikergesetz (HPG), which regulates the practice of alternative non-medical treatments, also allows practitioners who hold a limited license to work in the field of psychotherapy to practise psychotherapy. However, alternative non-medical practitioners who are licensed under HPG regulations are not allowed to use the professional title of "psychotherapist". They have to charge private fees and cannot pass on their fees to the statutory insurance funds. Psychotherapy practised by 'alternative practitioners'. Refer to HPG (Heilpraktikergesetz) and state implementation regulations and questions 27 and 28). http://www.bdp-verband.org/psychologie/faq_recognition.html#...

Background info: Prior to the implementation of the Psychotherapeutengesetz in 1999 [Gesetz über die Berufe des Psychologischen Psychotherapeuten und des Kinder- und Jugendlichenpsychotherapeuten – PsychThG] psychotherapists were not recognized as fully qualified medical practitioners cp: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychotherapeutengesetz „Seit Verabschiedung des og. Gesetzes darf Psychotherapie auch im Rahmen der Berufstätigkeit als Heilpraktiker oder Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapie nach dem Heilpraktikergesetz ausgeübt werden. Die zuständigen Aufsichts- und Genehmigungsbehörden (z. B. die Gesundheitsämter) können die Erlaubnis zur berufsmäßigen Ausübung der Heilkunde, beschränkt auf das Gebiet der Psychotherapie, nach dem Heilpraktikergesetz (HeilprG) erteilen. Diese Erlaubnis wird oft fälschlicherweise als "kleiner Heilpraktiker" bezeichnet. Im Unterschied zu einer unbeschränkten Heilpraktikerzulassung hat der Heilpraktiker (Psychotherapie) ausschließlich die Erlaubnis zur Ausübung der Heilkunde auf dem Gebiet der Psychotherapie.“ http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychotherapie_(Heilpraktikerge... |
