PSYCHOTERAPHY
Through psychotherapy you can get help with low mood, depression, anxiety, life crises, relationship crises, trauma and developmental trauma and more. Together we go through what kind of therapy best suits you. We are working with Internal Family System (IFS), Mindfulnessbased Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Couples Therapy – Emotionally Focused Therapy and IFS Intimacy From the Inside Out (EFT and IFIO).
My practice is also open to clients who would like to have therapy online.
Internal Family Systems
IFS is a psychotherapy that believes we all have a system of protective and wounded inner parts led by a core Self. Self can not be damaged, it exists in everyone and most importantly Self knows how to heal. Our inner life and system is just like a family where parts can be forced into extreme roles. As in a family, parts have different personalities that interact with each other, and in therapy you access and work with these parts inside yourself. Our core Self can help us balance these parts, allowing us to become integrated and whole.
Mindfulnessbased Cognitive Therapy
In MBCT we look at how thoughts, feelings, behaviour and our physiology interact. It is when there is a problem in this process that our mental health and well-being are affected. MBCT is an active treatment model where you in therapy learn how to acknowledge negative thought patterns and how these affect how we react and behave in different situations. Through meditation you learn to navigate your inner landscape and with guidance you learn the balance between acceptance change. By acknowledging our negative and inhibiting behaviour we can free ourselves from these patterns and the power and potential that exist within us.
Couples Therapy
In couples therapy you learn to understand your patterns and thereby increase the understanding and compassion for oneself and your partner. In interplay with the therapist, new patterns are created where you in a safe manner can learn to express your deepest needs to your partner, develop a safe communication and increased intimacy. EFT and IFIO is a structured method for couples therapy that has developed with the research on attachment theory in adult love relationships. The method combines humanistic techniques with structured systemic theory.
Confidentiality and professional secrecy are guarantied with the psychotherapy.
SUPERVISION
We are offering supervision to professionals within psychosocial work.

If interested or having questions
MBCT FOR STRESS / ANXIETY/ EXHAUSTION
MBCT helps you to access your natural capacity for self-care and to find a harmonious balance and equanimity. When we are under a high amount of stress we become more and more disconnected from our bodies and we tend to go up in our heads where, either we are worried about everything that needs to be done, everything that might happen, or ruminate over what has been in the past. By noticing these unhelpful patterns we can disrupt them and return to the present moment where we through practices and exercises, can strengthen and cultivate an ability to be present for life here and now.
MBCT FOR RECURRENT DEPRESSIONS
In MBCT you learn as a participant to notice and observe patterns in body and mind to increase the awareness around how low mood and negative thoughts affect you, and by doing this you can also break these patterns. By learning to recognise symptoms and learning to develop skills that enrich and strengthen yourself, you develop a foundation to prevent relapses into new depressions. Techniques and exercises from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) are integrated in the programme that together with mindfulness, increase the awareness of the patterns of mind and body.
MBCT FOR TRAUMA
MBCT for trauma is a 12-week programme for trauma and difficult experiences that can help soothe symptoms such as fear, hopelessness, frustration, sleeping difficulties and more. The aim of the programme is to give you a possibility to create a safe platform where the trauma can be explored, where memories and experiences can be integrated and through this process, healing can start. Through meditation and exercises we are balancing the nervous system and disrupting negative thought patterns. This process allows you to strengthen your self-worth and the ability to be connected and close to others.
