Receiving the experience of being truly heard, seen and known without preconceptions or judgement is the unique gift that the client/therapist relationship brings. It is a joy and an honor to have the opportunity to offer this healing relationship to my clients.

I am respectfully directive with my clients; offering them the shift in perception and ensuing behaviors that can transform their suffering into peace and a life lived with the joy of personal authenticity.

I have been in private practice providing individual, family, couples, and group therapy for 25 years. My experience includes working as a clinical social worker at family services agencies. My treatment approach is primarily psychodynamic, but I use an eclectic approach depending on needs of my clients. I enjoy forming groups as an added or alternative modality if clients are interested. I am born and raised in Sweden, and fluent in this language. My experience of two cultures offers a different perspective and has sometimes been helpful for clients.

Are you struggling with an increase in anxiety, obsessive thinking, or guilt around food? Do you feel as though your relationship with food is keeping you from living the life you want? Are you so consumed with thoughts around food and body image that you struggle to prioritize what is most important to you? Are you compromising your values and morals to achieve perfection in an imperfect world? If so, I am here to help you on your journey to recovery and push through that perfectionism. I have training in the treatment of eating disorders at the inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, and outpatient levels of care.

My goal as a therapist is to help my clients find more balance, flow, and peace in their lives. I utilize a holistic approach that combines counseling, solution-focused coaching, art therapy, and mindfulness practices. In session, we explore the past and present, as well as wishes for the future. We objectively look at patterns and behaviors that support these goals and overall wellbeing, as well as those that feel less helpful or congruent with your authentic self. I feel strongly about providing concrete tools to apply in everyday life between sessions. It is here where the real change happens.

Parenting Therapists
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.
When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.
How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
