Chair of Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy

Welcome to the website of the Chair of Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy. The Chair has been headed by Prof. Dr. Miriam Schiele since 01.04.2026.

The Chair investigates the processes involved in the development, maintenance and treatment of mental illnesses and the mechanisms underlying them.

The research profile combines clinical-psychological and psychotherapeutic questions with neurobiological research approaches in a multi-level approach in order to characterize, model and predict disorder progression, psychotherapeutic mechanisms of change, and individual therapy response in a differentiated manner.
