About me
As a clinical and health psychologist I have specialized in working with children, adolescents and their parents since 2003.
I specifically focus on supporting parents in their individual family situations and with everyday challenges. I developed my personal approach during the many years of practical experience working directly with families, as well as during my university work, where I specialized in developmental and cultural psychology.
Listening to the parents and including them in the planning of how to move forward has proven to be the most valuable aspects of supporting families. Only this way can we together create a therapy plan with intervention methods that work for each individual family in their unique everyday life.
