Experience

I have more than 25 years of experience in various types of crisis, safety, and conflict work in the private sector. I have worked in broad cooperation with various authority organizations (the police and social and healthcare authorities). My experience in crisis work and my supplementary training within the therapeutic field have added to the competencies needed in my work as a psychotherapist.

Me as a threapist

As a therapist, I always work together with my client. I can be proactive and ask questions, discuss issues, or just listen. I always respect my client’s life situation, but I never lose hope of a positive change in their most difficult life circumstances. I empathize and I am supportive, warm-hearted, and open.

Course of Therapy Sessions

Therapy First Steps

At the beginning of the therapy, I put a lot of energy into building a well-working therapy relationship between my client and me that inspires confidence and trust.

Mapping Goals Together

Together, we determine the client’s personal goals for the therapy sessions.

Finding Solutions Together

In the sessions, a number of approaches may be used in order to strengthen the client’s mental health and self-esteem. In my work as psychotherapist, I focus on the dialogue at hand. Through conversation, I give the client an opportunity to find answers and solutions for their own, unique life situation.
