Abstract
Of 128 psychotherapists approached, 41 (32 %) agreed to study participation. Semistructured interviews were examined via qualitative content analysis. 83 % (n = 34) expressed some kind of burden. Burdens in terms of time, pressure/ stress and having to decline patients were named most frequently. 54 % of the participants (n = 22) pointed out various limits to what they can accomplish, mostly related to shortened waiting times and treatment availability. Burdens were more common among psychotherapists with a half care license and behavioural therapy; there were no major differences between urban or rural residents. Burdens for psychotherapists may result from individual life situations and resources of treatment availability.
