Existential psychotherapist with an international master's degree in psychology (MSc Psychology)
Therapy and psychological conversations for grief, bereavement, crisis, anxiety, stress, serious illness and life transitions — in Copenhagen and online.
Welcome
Here you'll find warm, confidential conversations in a safe setting. Whether you are grieving, young and trying to find your footing, older and wanting to make sense of the life you have lived or carrying the longing for a child that has not come, you are welcome. There is time for you, and room for all of it.
About
I believe we become whole when someone dares to sit beside us in what is hard.
As a small child I was adopted to Denmark and grew up in the countryside in a home where openness and respect for the individual mattered deeply regardless of culture, faith or background. Those values still shape every conversation I have.
I also know grief from the inside. Life has taken me through several kinds of loss of parents, of a close friend to suicide, of the familiar. Without making my experiences yours, I know what it is like when the world suddenly looks different, and how much it means to have somewhere to bring it.
I hold an international MSc in Psychology, am an existential psychotherapist and have a cross-disciplinary background rooted in social work. For more than 15 years I have worked with people in grief, crisis and life transitions.
I have lived several years abroad first in the US, then in Switzerland and today I am based back in Denmark. Life across languages and cultures has given me a deep feeling for identity, belonging and the courage it takes to begin again.
Alongside my practice I supervise volunteers at Save the Children Youth (Red Barnet Ungdom). Lecturer in Social Work at University College Absalon, Roskilde Campus, teaching within the field of psychology. I have also founded Blossom, an NGO supporting women in vulnerable life situations.

English & Dansk
Moving country changes more than an address. Relationships shift, careers pivot, children grow up between languages, and grief and identity can quietly take on a different shape when the ground underneath you keeps moving. Having lived and worked for many years in both Switzerland and the United States, I've spent a large part of my practice with expats, international professionals and couples, cross-cultural families and Third Culture Kids — people who know that home isn't always one place.
Sessions take place in central Copenhagen or online, in English or Danish — whichever feels most like your own voice.
What I help with
Some periods of life call for a place where there is time to pause. A place where you don't need to perform, find the right words or have it all figured out.
I offer psychotherapy and conversations in Copenhagen and online for people in the midst of grief, life crises or major change. Here there is room both for what hurts and for what can slowly grow forward.
Grief isn't about letting go of the one you have lost. It's about slowly finding a way to live on with the love, the longing and the new reality. Together we create a safe space where grief is allowed to be, without any pressure to move on. Grief therapy and talking therapy in Copenhagen and online.
Reach outYouth can be full of uncertainty, pressure to perform, anxiety, loneliness or questions about identity and belonging. I offer therapy for young people with a focus on creating a place where you can be yourself and explore what fills you — at your own pace.
Reach outSometimes it isn't one particular event, but life itself that is changing. Retirement, illness, divorce, loss, empty nest, menopause or the question of who you are now. Our conversations start from the life you are living and the person you want to be.
Reach outInvoluntary childlessness can be a deep and often invisible grief. You may be in the middle of fertility treatment, have experienced pregnancy loss, or be living with the realisation that life will look different than you had imagined. Here there is room for hope, powerlessness and all the feelings that can exist side by side.
Reach outFor many years I have worked with expats, international families and Third Culture Kids. Living between countries, languages and cultures can be both enriching and lonely. Our conversations centre on identity, belonging, loss and building a home — both in the world and in yourself.

What I believe
I don't believe people need fixing.
I don't believe grief is something we get over.
I don't believe life always makes sense.
But I believe we can find a way to live with it.
My approach is existential. We talk about what is — about loss, hope, relationships, meaning and everything that cannot be solved, but can be carried when it is shared. Read more about existential psychotherapy.
How I work
Change happens when we feel truly seen and heard. That's why I work quietly, gently and always from what you bring — with no agenda, no demands and no hurry.
No expectation that you should feel a particular way.
We don't move faster than you can go along with.
You are not a problem to solve. You are a person in something difficult.
Full attention, confidentiality — no agenda beyond yours.
Trust
When you choose a therapist, you also choose a person. That is why it matters who you sit across from.
I meet you with both many years of clinical experience and a calm, present approach — whether you come with grief, life crises, anxiety or great change.

Frequently asked questions
The first step
The first step is often the hardest. You are welcome to call, send a text or reach me on WhatsApp — many people in grief, illness or an existential crisis feel better hearing a voice first. We take it at your pace, and you don't need to have any of it figured out beforehand.
