Counseling, therapy & couples therapy
I offer counseling for individuals and couples in Oslo and online. I work transdiagnostically based on Emotion-focused Therapy and mindfulness practice. In the sessions we work together to bring clarity around your emotions, needs and challenges, integrate difficult experiences, and discover better ways of relating to yourself and others. Key aspects of the counseling I offer are emotional awareness and regulation, openness and self-acceptance, and practicing being present.
Emotion-Focused Therapy is a research-based humanistic approach. The presence-centered approaches I have trained in are are more spiritual in nature, but also down-to-earth. I find these complement each other well. Before training to be a counselor I worked as a physical therapist and later as a body psychotherapist.
I offer in-person sessions in Oslo, and online sessions. I`m happy to do sessions in English.
