COUNSELLING & PSYCHOTHERAPY
SOMATIC EXPERIENCING
INTRODUCTION
I am an experienced, counsellor and psychotherapist working online and from several locations Stockholm and London offering individual therapy, self-development and supervision. I have been been working professionally for 17 years.
I work from an existential and body oriented /somatic perspective, getting to what matters to you at this time, the specific patterns and disregulation.
I believe the work should be effective, accountable and ethical. I see the central task to be that of clarifying and exploring, finding new ways to renegotiate the issues you bring.
I would say my approach is collaborative and down to earth, being emotionally present, facilitative and direct.
FINDING YOUR WAY
Choosing a therapist as well as the type of counselling and psychotherapy can be a task in itself. It is widely recognised that the most effective outcomes are based on the quality of relationship between client and counsellor, so it is important for you to arrive at your decision with this in mind. Often people find me via word of mouth and personal recommendation. I have worked now with many people over these past years from all kinds of backgrounds and professions.
There are many misconceptions about who goes and at what point to seek help of a counsellor or psychotherapist. Though this does seem to be changing. Often we can become adept at managing to live with things in life we believe we cannot change, becoming stuck and cut off from what is important to us.
The motivation to see a professionally trained therapist is very individual – at times of great distress, maybe a wish to understand negative patterns in your life or to explore a particular dilemma. It may, however, be difficult to simply identify a particular issue, as often all areas of life can be affected. The process of counselling is to try and bring you to a greater sense of capacity and aliveness as well as to make sense of your experience and to help you find tools to live more fully.
