When you choose therapy with me, you can expect a professional, warm, and understanding environment. My approach is tailored to your personal circumstances, strengths, and challenges. Our sessions will offer a safe space where you can openly explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences. I strive to create an atmosphere of empathy and respect, ensuring you feel genuinely heard and understood.
I believe strongly in collaboration and partnership in therapy. Together, we will identify your goals, explore your emotions deeply, and find practical ways to create meaningful change in your life. My aim is to empower you with insights and tools that will help you overcome difficulties and enhance your emotional well-being.
I am available for consultation in English and Norwegian.
