Arrival in Todtmoos
It always seems impossible until it’s done.

Admission & Treatment
Arrival at the Verus Clinic
Both the end and the beginning of a journey
You’ll first be welcomed at reception. Our team will help you with your luggage and show you to your room for the duration of your stay. In the corridors, we come across people who are attentive and greet us warmly.
Out on the balcony, you’ll notice the crisp, clear air; this is where the health resort of Todtmoos, renowned for its therapeutic climate, really comes into its own. There’s time to take a moment to yourself.
You will have your first meal in our dining room. If you feel like it, you can get to know some of your fellow residents whilst you eat; if this feels a bit overwhelming at the moment, there is also a quiet table available in the dining room. The fresh meals will surprise you; the atmosphere and cuisine reflect and complement our treatment approach: we will practise approaching all our daily activities with mindfulness.
Once you have had enough time to familiarise yourself with your new surroundings, you will be seen by a specialist in psychiatry/psychosomatic medicine and a general practitioner; diagnoses will be made and the initial treatment measures will be put in place.
During the initial consultations, your medical history (known as your ‘anamnesis’) will also be taken. This includes, amongst other things, your symptoms and any possible triggers, such as stress at home and/or at work, the course of your illness to date, and any previous treatments, e.g. outpatient psychotherapy and medication.
The first sessions with the other therapists are arranged, and the intensive treatment takes the form of daily appointments. This successfully helps to allay the initial nervousness, and gradually the magic inherent in every new beginning begins to take shape.
Later on, you will be admitted to the care ward and introduced to the care team. They will let you know that you can contact the care ward by telephone from your room at any time.
