An experienced psychotherapist offering psychotherapy and EFT couples therapy in Copenhagen
I am a certified psychotherapist (M.A.), the highest professional level recognised in both Denmark and England, and I work from my private practice in central Copenhagen as well as online.
For more than twenty years, I have worked with individuals, couples, and families across multiple countries and cultural contexts. My work integrates depth-oriented psychotherapy with a calm, grounded Danish presence.
Alongside my clinical practice, I have continued advanced training in couples therapy, supervision, and relational work. I am recently completed Master Class Further Training in Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT therapy) for couples.
The importance of supervision
Good therapy begins with good supervision
I regularly meet with experienced senior psychotherapists in Denmark and abroad to reflect on my work, challenge my thinking, and continue developing my skills. This ongoing process supports the quality of my individual, couples, and family therapy, helping me offer thoughtful, ethical, and effective care.
My focus is simple: excellence, integrity, and impact.

This is when you need a couples therapy intensive with me
You need more continuity than weekly therapy can provide, and your schedule or circumstances require concentrated work.
You need couples therapy when the crisis is shaping how you speak, sleep, work, parent or imagine the future. There is no perfect threshold you must cross before asking for help. If either of you feels that something is seriously wrong, that trust is breaking down or that ordinary conversations no longer work, that is enough reason to act.
In more than 21 years of practice, I have learned that couples in crisis need clarity before they need more analysis. In sessions, I usually begin by identifying what is escalating the situation, what each of you is protecting and what must stop immediately. I will help you understand what is happening and establish a direction that both of you can evaluate.
Is the conflict becoming impossible to contain?
Yes, you need help when arguments continue long after either of you can think clearly, when the same dispute repeatedly returns or when silence feels as hostile as shouting. You may be monitoring every word, avoiding the house, losing sleep or trying to carry on normally while the relationship dominates your attention.
I will help you separate the focused trigger from the cycle that keeps expanding it. We will identify what must be contained, what needs to be said and what cannot be resolved while either of you is overwhelmed. If this is already affecting daily life, book a session with me rather than waiting for another escalation.
Do you keep reaching for each other and making things worse?
You can both want the relationship and still react in ways that push the other person further away. One of you may demand an answer while the other needs space. Attempts to secure closeness can then feel like pressure, while attempts to calm the situation through distance can feel like abandonment.
I help you understand the protective logic on both sides without pretending that every response is acceptable. The goal is not to decide whose need is correct. I will help you interrupt the sequence, communicate the need underneath the reaction and create choices that do not intensify the crisis.
Are you pursuing reassurance because the relationship feels unsafe?
Silence, distance or uncertainty can feel like evidence that the relationship is disappearing. You may ask the same question repeatedly, analyse your partner’s tone, demand focused certainty or feel unable to settle until reassurance finally feels convincing.
I help you calm the alarm underneath the pursuit and communicate what you need without forcing an answer that your partner cannot genuinely give. Your need for closeness is not the problem. The work is to stop fear from deciding how you seek it and to build reassurance that creates safety rather than further pressure.
Are you withdrawing because every conversation feels overwhelming?
Emotional intensity can feel intrusive, exhausting or impossible to answer correctly. You may become quiet, factual or distant, minimise the seriousness of the problem or leave the conversation because withdrawal seems like the only way to regain control.
I will help you understand what the distance protects you from and how its impact differs from your intention. You will not be told to tolerate unlimited emotional pressure. You will be expected to communicate your limits clearly, remain present where possible and return to the conversation rather than allowing space to become abandonment.
Are you moving between pursuit, anger and shutdown?
Both closeness and distance can feel unsafe. You may urgently seek contact, then push your partner away when contact arrives. The movement between pleading, attacking, withdrawing and becoming numb can be rapid enough that neither of you understands what just happened.
I slow this cycle down with you and identify what activates each shift. Compassion for the protective response does not remove responsibility for its impact. I help you create enough emotional and relational safety to make more consistent choices, repair harmful moments and stop the crisis from repeatedly recreating itself.
Are you questioning whether the relationship can survive?
You may no longer know whether you want to repair the relationship, leave it or simply stop the present pain. Betrayal, repeated conflict or prolonged disconnection can make every option feel frightening. You may also be adapting so completely to the crisis that you have lost contact with your own limits and values.
I will offer direction and professional challenge without deciding the future of your relationship for you. We will clarify what has happened, what each of you is prepared to take responsibility for and what evidence would make repair realistic. The aim is an informed decision, not pressure to stay together at any cost.
If the crisis is active now, request a call or book a session so that we can establish what kind of focused support you need.

What a couples therapy intensive with me will help you do
Closely scheduled sessions let us stay with the work long enough to understand the pattern, make changes and review what happens next.
I will help you understand the cycle driving the crisis, recognise the moments when it takes over and make concrete changes in communication, boundaries and repair. Insight is useful only when it gives you a different way of responding at home.
My professional view is that focused work must be active and structured. I will listen carefully, but I will also interrupt destructive exchanges, challenge avoidance and name what each of you needs to take responsibility for. You will leave with a clearer understanding of the problem and the next actions required.
How will I help you understand the real crisis?
I will help you distinguish the central relationship injury from the arguments, accusations and defensive reactions surrounding it. The crisis may concern betrayal, trust, emotional abandonment, an impending separation or a pattern that has finally become intolerable.
I bring structure by identifying what is urgent, what is maintaining the crisis and what can wait until greater stability exists. I will give you my assessment rather than leaving you alone with competing explanations. You can book a session with me when you are ready to begin.
Can you stop the cycle before it takes over?
Yes. You can learn to recognise the first signs of the cycle before either of you reaches the point of shouting, pursuing, withdrawing or shutting down. Earlier recognition creates the moment in which a different response becomes possible.
I help you map the sequence precisely: what happens first, what meaning each of you assigns to it and which protective move follows. Recognition is not the endpoint. You will practise interrupting the cycle and returning to the issue in a way that the other person can actually receive.
How will you regulate the emotional intensity?
Regulation means staying present enough to understand what is happening and choose how to respond. It does not mean suppressing anger, grief or fear, and it does not require either of you to pretend that the relationship injury is smaller than it is.
I will help you recognise activation earlier and use specific ways of slowing it before the conversation becomes destructive. Both partners must practise these responses between sessions. therapy cannot work if the therapy room is the only place where either of you attempts to change the pattern.
Can you speak honestly without causing another explosion?
Yes, but honest communication requires more than saying everything you feel. You need to know what you are trying to communicate, what belongs to the present issue and what is being amplified by fear, shame or accumulated resentment.
I help you speak specifically, listen without preparing a defence and distinguish a boundary from a threat. I will challenge self-silencing, but I will also challenge communication that demands your partner regulate every emotion for you. The aim is contact, not victory.
How will you make a clear decision about what happens next?
Clearer decisions become possible when you separate panic, guilt and pressure from the evidence in front of you. You need to know whether there is accountability, willingness to change and enough emotional safety for repair to be realistic.
I will help you examine the consequences of staying, separating or postponing a decision while specific conditions are tested. I will offer my professional view and challenge avoidance, but I will not choose for you. The final decision must be one you can understand and take responsibility for.
What would a safer relationship require from both of you?
A safer relationship requires changes outside therapy. You may need clearer boundaries, different ways of handling conflict, greater transparency, protected time together or a more realistic agreement about what each of you can offer.
I help you decide what must change and how you will recognise whether it is changing. The goal is not to return to the relationship exactly as it was before the crisis. It is to build a relationship with greater honesty, responsibility and room for both partners to remain present.

How your couples therapy intensive with me is planned
Back-to-back does not mean relentless therapy. I plan the timing, breaks and intensity around what you can use productively.
We begin by deciding what the intensive must address and how much concentrated time is appropriate. I will not prescribe a standard package before understanding the problem, your schedule and your emotional capacity.
The plan may include several sessions on one day, consecutive days, appointments distributed across one week or a weekend intensive. Online, in-person and combined formats can be considered.
Several sessions can be held on the same day
Same-day sessions preserve momentum when travel, work or urgency makes weekly appointments impractical.
I build in deliberate breaks so you can eat, walk, rest and absorb what has emerged before continuing.
We can work on consecutive days
Consecutive-day sessions allow overnight reflection without losing the thread of the work.
I review your response each day and adjust the next session rather than following a rigid programme.
Sessions can be concentrated within one week
Several appointments across one week offer continuity while leaving time for practice and ordinary responsibilities.
This format works well when you need momentum without multiple sessions in a single day.
Weekend therapy intensives fit demanding schedules
A weekend intensive protects the work from professional commitments, school runs and competing weekday calendars.
Weekend availability is planned individually, including session blocks, breaks and any preparation beforehand.
The pace must remain emotionally usable
More hours are not automatically better. Concentrated work must respect concentration, regulation and emotional capacity.
I monitor the quality of the work and slow down, pause or change the schedule when that is clinically responsible.
Integration and follow-up are part of the plan
An intensive should connect to what happens after the final concentrated session.
We decide whether you need follow-up, structured individual psychotherapy, long-term couples therapy or no further appointments.

Frequently asked questions
What is a couples therapy intensive?
It is a concentrated series of closely scheduled sessions rather than conventional weekly therapy.
The schedule is designed around the work, your capacity and practical availability.
Can I book multiple sessions on the same day?
Yes. We can schedule more than one session in a day when that format is appropriate.
Restorative breaks are planned, so back-to-back does not mean continuous therapy without recovery.
Can sessions take place on consecutive days?
Yes. Consecutive days preserve momentum while allowing overnight reflection.
I review how you are responding and adjust the following day accordingly.
Can we arrange the intensive within one week?
Yes. Several sessions can be distributed across a single week.
This offers continuity without requiring a full day or weekend.
Do you offer weekend therapy intensives?
Yes, subject to individual planning and availability.
Weekend intensives suit busy professionals, parents, travelling clients and couples coordinating two schedules.
Can the intensive be online or in person?
Yes. It may be online, in person or use a combination of both.
I recommend the format that best supports privacy, concentration and the work itself.
How many sessions will I need?
There is no responsible standard answer before I understand your situation and goal.
I recommend a schedule, explain why and review it as the intensive progresses.
Will back-to-back sessions be emotionally overwhelming?
They should not be. Concentrated work must respect your limits and ability to integrate.
I plan breaks, monitor your response and change the pace when more therapy would no longer be useful.
What does a therapy intensive cost?
Fees depend on the number and type of sessions. Contact me to discuss the schedule.
Payment is by invoice and bank transfer. Therapy discounts and bundles may provide significant savings.
How do I arrange a therapy intensive with you?
Book a free discovery call or contact me directly.
Tell me the service, timing and format you are considering. I will recommend same-day, consecutive-day, within-a-week or weekend sessions.
