Questions regarding life and the human experience has been prevalent in my life since I was a child. This curiosity means that I dive into a wide range of topics and activities aside from psychology and philosophy, among others meditation, music, nature, chemistry, biologi, IT and different areas related to physical health. My experience is that this curiosity contributes to clients sensing a sincere interest in their experience. I have also traveled a lot in Asia, the US and Europe and have experienced a lot of different cultures, thus giving me a greater understanding of the way culture influences us, and perhaps even more importantly; a greater insight into that which is common for all of us human beings.
As a psychologist and human being I have found it meaningful to work from an approach focused on presence, meaning and connection. Aside from my education as a psychologist I have an education in existential therapy. I combine the existential approach with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as well as Compassion Focused Therapy.
In order to continuously deepen my understanding and professional practice, I participate in courses on a regular basis and have frequent contact with other professionals. Some of the settings for this is therapy and supervision.
Particularly in the existential approach and in ACT, we view the psychologist as a human being on the same level as the client. Thus, for many years it has been of great importance to me to be in therapy myself. The three primary frameworks I have undergone therapy in are existential, psychodynamic and cognitive.
I have received supervision on a regular basis all throughout my career by specialists in the field of psychiatry, experienced psychologists within the field of pedagogical and developmental psychology, as well as a specialist within the field of work and organizational psychology.
I view having a space for reflection and personal as well as professional development as an essential element in ensuring that I can help clients in the best way possible and will therefore continue to prioritize these activities. My current supervison is with psychologists specialized in the combination of ACT and philosophical, existential perspectives.
