More About Me: 

I am English, and I understand and speak Danish, but offer sessions in English only. My clients are often native English speakers, but also Danes and others who are comfortable communicating in English. 

Types of Sessions and Programmes

I offer single sessions - either full hour-long sessions, or newly introduced mini-sessions for clients experiencing time pressure on the work and/ or home front.  

For optimal outcomes, therapy programmes will be booked over 5, 10 or more sessions, but preliminary single sessions are offered at a discount, so we can explore our compatibility for the longer term, or should you simply have a few things you need to share. 

Beyond my academic qualifications (BSc Psychology, MSc Psychology), my skills and training include Behaviour Change Techniques, Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques. 

Session Content

Core Counselling Programmes

The first sessions will typically involve a 360 degree exploration of your situation, your environment, the challenges you might be facing, and the feelings you are experiencing. Importantly, we will also look at how you usually cope with negative feelings. Together, we will then explore possible avenues for you to adapt and optimise your cognitive, behavioural and emotional responses to events in your life, to achieve better overall health and well-being. 

Behaviour Change Programmes

One of my specialisations is design and delivery of Behaviour Change Programmes. These programmes include courses to STOP or LIMIT health-aversive behaviours, such as smoking, alcohol, and too much internet, as well as courses to START or INCREASE health-protective behaviours, such as exercise and eating fruit and vegetables. Here I use a tailored combination of Motivational Interviewing, and targeted Behaviour Change Techniques to suit your lifestyle, environment and background. 

Session Length

Should you book a 10-session course, you should expect that the first few sessions will last 55 to 60 minutes, as we get to know each other, and the remaining sessions will be closer to 45 minutes. Research indicates that the ideal time to spend together in therapy is around 45 minutes.

Everything we talk about will be kept in strictest confidence, unless it transpires from what we discuss that you or someone you know is in danger, or that young or otherwise vulnerable people are at risk of harm. 

These sessions are not the right solution for you if any of the following is true:

-       You have thoughts of hurting yourself or others

-       You are a minor or you are under the care of a legal guardian

-       You are in an urgent crisis or an emergency situation

-       You have been diagnosed with a severe mental illness, or if you have been advised to be in psychological supervision or psychiatric care

-       You were required to undergo therapy or counselling either by a court order or by any other authority
