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?

This can be transformational when it comes to strengthening our relationship with self and, subsequently, those around us.
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.

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.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
