If you’re not sure what kind of therapy you’re looking for, start with the main problem that’s taking up the most space right now.
If anxiety, overwhelm, intrusive thoughts, or feeling constantly on edge is the main issue, Individual Therapy is usually the best place to start.
If you and your partner are stuck in repeating arguments, emotionally disconnected, or struggling since becoming parents or moving abroad, Couples Therapy focuses on the patterns between you rather than blaming either person.
If your child is struggling with behavior, emotions, separation, sleep, or adjustment to daycare or school, Child Therapy supports children in expressing and regulating what they can’t yet put into words.
If anxiety is driven by intrusive thoughts, compulsions, checking, reassurance-seeking, or avoidance, OCD / ERP Therapy is a more targeted approach than general talk therapy.
If past experiences continue to intrude on the present through strong emotional or physical reactions, EMDR Therapy may help process what hasn’t fully settled.
If you’re unsure, we can talk it through together. You don’t need to arrive with the “right” label.

Village Therapy is currently led by one licensed psychotherapist. I hold a Master’s degree in Couple and Family Therapy and have advanced training in anxiety treatment, ERP, EMDR, couples work, and play therapy.

In Denmark, “psychotherapist” is not a protected title. It is tied to specific education and clinical training, and most psychotherapists are members of the Danish Psychotherapist Union, which has strict membership criteria and ethics guidelines. It is different from “psychologist,” which requires a university psychology degree and state authorization. Both can provide therapy. The right fit depends on the issue, not just the title.
