I am an English and Finnish speaking psychologist offering help with difficulties such as depression, anxiety (including panic, OCD and phobias), stress and burnout, and other. I work in-person in Helsinki and online. You can contact me for an initial phonecall before booking a meeting together.
As a therapist, I aim to provide a non-judgmental, supportive and compassionate space where you feel safe to discuss difficult topics and concerns. During our meetings, I will try to help you gain a better understanding of the difficulties you experience (e.g., based on psychological models and personal history), and help you become effective in managing these outside of the therapy space.
My approach is evidence-based, which means that I use methods and tools that have been shown to be effective for specific difficulties and individuals. The main approaches and tools that I work with include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy, schema therapy and compassion-focused therapy. When appropriate, and depending on the individual needs, I will combine tools from different approaches.
Vad gör man i mina sessioner
I am available for an initial phonecall to discuss the nature of your concerns before booking a session.
The initial sessions focus on understanding your current difficulties, and therefore I will be asking you questions regarding your current situation. I may also ask you to fill in psychological questionnaires.
At the beginning of our meetings, we will also discuss therapy goals together. Throughout our meetings, I will actively listen and offer support, as well as tools and perspectives that can help you with the difficulties that you experience. Every client is different, and we will be evaluating your well-being and adjusting the approach depending on what works for you.

Min professionella bakgrund och kunnande
I hold a Bachelor and Master of Science in clinical psychology from Leiden University in the Netherlands, and a neuroscience background that I gained during my propaedeuse at Maastricht University. My education has taught me with knowledge on the assessment, diagnosis, and psychological treatment of mental health difficulties. I have had training in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), short-term interpersonal therapy, schema therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and compassion-focused therapy. I have also gone through training on working with neurodiversity, such as ASD and ADHD.
I have worked with individuals suffering from difficulties such as depression, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder, traumatic experiences, relationship difficulties, and immigration stress, among other. I have also worked with couples, working on conflict resolution and communication problems, among other difficulties such as loss of connection to partner.
Mina patientgrupper
I work in English and in Finnish with varied difficulties. Due to personal experience living abroad, I gravitate towards Finns who have lived abroad, are living abroad, or internationals living here in Finland, however, I am happy to help you, regardless of background. I offer a free phone consultation prior to booking a meeting together, during which we may together discuss whether I am the right person to help with your specific difficulties.
