Individual therapy
Perhaps you are going through a breakup, or have lost a partner? We can support and help you through relational challenges even when it's just you.
Couples Therapy
It is often in our closest relationships that we encounter the most difficult situations. In couples therapy, you can work with better communication regardless of the situation.
Family therapy
Family therapy can include several family relationships. It could be, for example, a sibling relationship that is difficult, or an adult child-parent relationship that hurts.
By choosing one of our couples therapists, the relationship is in safe hands. We have national and international course instructors on staff, a lively and active professional environment, weekly guidance meetings and extensive experience. In couples therapy with us, we work together systematically to see and change the mechanisms that have gotten in your way. The pattern is usually the monster. By breaking this, we hope to be able to give you more closeness, laughter, harmony, intimacy and joy. Or at the very least a neat clarification.
Some couples come to us because they don't know if they want to continue in the relationship. They struggle with a lot of doubt and have difficulty deciding whether they want to try to work towards a better relationship or whether they should rather end the relationship. These couples need an offer that takes their ambivalence seriously, and makes room for the parties in this process to have different needs for help. Clarification counseling aims to help couples make a good decision - whether it consists of a joint future or a breakup.
Hold Me Tight® is a cohabitation course based on Sue Johnson's self-help book "Hold me!". The course is suitable for anyone who wants to break out of bad circles in the relationship and strengthen security and trust. For those who are already in couples therapy, the course can also be a nice supplement that makes it easier to work on your own.
At our couple & family department, we work with relationships in all forms. Alongside couple therapy, we can also offer talks for other family problems such as new family problems, stuck relationships between parents and adult children, unfortunate family dynamics, help for families in the process of breaking up, inheritance conflict and most other things. We have expertise in breaking with destructive patterns that have been passed down through generations.
We also have a collaboration with Modum Bad and are involved in ongoing couple research. We have specialist expertise in, among other things, emotion-focused couple therapy, which is one of the couple therapy models with the most support in research. It is suitable for couples who want to break out of negative interactions and regain closeness and trust in their relationship.
