In my practice as a clinical psychologist, I focus on coping, personal development and quality of life. It is important to me as a therapist and counsellor that the process of therapy is a collaborative undertaking, including an active effort on your part. Together we work on defining the problem, we explore your relationship with the problem, and we try to change it or eliminate it entirely.

Services

Therapy and counseling

In one-on-one meetings, we work together on defining the issue of concern. My job as a therapist is divided: I listen, ask questions, inform and give constructive counseling. Typical areas I work with are emotional well-being, anxiety, depression, stress management, burn out, sleep disorders, relationship or family issues, and adjustment issues.o

Children and youth

I offer counseling and individual therapy to children and adolescents. When children and adolescents signal that something is not right, there may be several factors involved. Perhaps the issue stems from how the child understands and interacts with the world. Other potential causes may be related to the child’s particular set of circumstances or environment. Furthermore, various congenital factors may heighten a child’s vulnerability.

Sessions with a psychologist can be helpful to children and adolescents. My initial focus when meeting the child is to provide secure grounds and establish trust. Together we work with creating meaning in the child´s story, and in this way help the child to find his or her inner strength to cope with the difficulties he or she is experiencing. It is often an advantage to involve parents or others in the child´s immediate network in the treatment process.

Parental counseling

I offer parental counseling. Some of the issues we address are how to manage everyday family life and best practices for meeting family members´ needs. I offer counseling on parenting issues and on constructive coping strategies within families with children with special needs.

Employers/ Organizations

I offer counseling sessions for corporate employees and leadership, through individual sessions or through pre-arranged contracts with the organization, which give company staff direct access to counseling services.

During the course of working life, job stress is a common cause of reduced functioning. Job stress incorporates for example communication difficulties, high expectations of achievement, demands om working capacity and speed, handling conflict and crises, or a bad working environment. Job stress may affect both leaders and employees, and result in sick leave, burn out or psychological disorders.

In Norway, one-fourth of all sick leaves are the result of minor psychological problems or more severe mental disorders. An effective way of reducing the number of sick leaves in an organization is to focus on coping with job-related stress. The earlier we start addressing the problem, the sooner we can expect increased well-being and better workplace performance.
