Where can I get counselling?

Before, during and after a term inside, many prisoners face a lot of problems. Difficulties that you had before often get more difficult through a term in prison. Our counselling office offers individual support and support groups.

What we discuss is how to avoid a prison term, how to cope in prison, what to do when you are discharged, where to get help with leading a normal life again and how to maintain your social contacts.
Those in pre-trial detention we support with reflection on the offence, the causes and effects.
We hold regular consultation hours on these matters at the Bielefeld-Brackwede I prison where you can work on these questions together with our staff, and where we can put you in touch with your relatives.

Shortly before your release, we offer intensive support with getting ready for life after discharge by discussing these issues:

  • settling your debts
  • getting a grip on your finances
  • advice on personal crises
  • support with finding work and accommodation
