I studied Couple & Family Therapy at Seattle University and got my master's degree from there in 2021. That year I also passed the National Licensing Exam for Marriage & Family Therapists and became licensed in Washington State. I no longer hold my state license as I am no longer a resident, and as of 2022 I am instead a registered Psychotherapist with the Danish Association of Psychotherapists (Dansk Psykoterapeutforening). My training included extensive work with individuals, couples and families.

In my work with individuals, I specialise in treating OCD, specific phobias, and generalised anxiety. I very much believe in the power of taking action to treat anxiety, which is why I focus on cognitive behavioural models such as Exposure and Response Prevention and the Unified Protocol. I also work with teenagers aged 13–17.

I don't believe that more introspection is always better. Therapy can become unhelpful when every feeling needs to be analysed, every reaction needs an explanation, or understanding yourself becomes an end in itself. What seems to make the biggest difference is learning to tolerate uncertainty, finding the courage to do something differently, and returning to being fully present in your life. I am less interested in helping people arrive at a perfect explanation of themselves than in helping them live with greater freedom, flexibility and intention. This is why the foundation of my work as a psychotherapist is in Existential Psychotherapy.

I also love working with couples and families, and relational work is where my training began. With couples, I draw mainly on the Gottman Method, looking closely at friendship, conflict, and the small moments when partners turn toward or away from each other. I'm also the only therapist at Village Therapy who offers family therapy, where we look at the patterns between family members and how each person's struggles affect the others.

Outside of my work as a psychotherapist, I enjoy spending time with my family, and my hobbies and interests include film, television, books, music, and gaming. If it's an indoorsy activity, I probably enjoy it.
