Over the past two years, I have focused exclusively on providing psychotherapy as part of my training. During this time, I have worked with several dozen client processes, both short-term and long-term. Psychotherapy forms a natural continuation of my earlier professional experience, which I have accumulated over approximately 20 years working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. My work history has taken me from residential care settings to aftercare services, family counselling centres, child protection, and student welfare services. I have worked both in direct client work and in supervisory roles. Through my work experience, I am familiar with themes such as anxiety and mood-related difficulties, burnout, challenges related to emotional life and attachment relationships, identity questions in adolescence and early adulthood, trauma and developmental trauma, as well as personality disorders. I have also trained as a counsellor specialising in blended families and have worked extensively with the diverse situations faced by separated and blended families.

I currently live in Denmark as a Finnish expatriate. I have personal experience of what it is like to build a life and everyday routines in a new country, navigating a new language, culture, and social networks. Relocation and change can bring many positive opportunities, but they can also feel confusing and challenging. Questions of belonging, loneliness, and putting down roots often evoke strong emotions, and adjustment takes time. I therefore understand you who are building your life and finding your place in a new country and culture.
