About Me
"Livet må forstås baglæns, men må leves forlæns."
-Søren Kierkegaard
("Life can only be understood backwards, but must be lived forwards")




Psychotherapist in Somerset
I am Danish and have lived in England for 16 years. Despite my accent, I feel more British now, although I know how difficult settling in another country can be.
I have travelled a large part of the world and I have previously lived in Denmark, Spain, and France.
I speak Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, English and German, plus a bit of Spanish and Hebrew.
I am forever curious about people, families, cultures and societies, and I bring that curiosity to my meetings.
I am interested in you, your story and why your life has made the turns & twists it has. Together, we can begin to make sense of your experiences, explore your feelings and open up for a new path ahead of you.
I have previously worked at a NHS trauma clinic and a mental health charity.
In between my mental health work, I help a charity organisation and frequently travel to Zambia and Zimbabwe, setting up free schools in deprived areas. This is a project that is very dear to me and helps me grow as a human.
My hobbies include reupholstering, reading, walking, travelling and eating good food (preferably cooked by others!)
I hold memberships with UKCP (UK Council for Psychotherapists), EATA (European Association of Transactional Analysis), and UKATA (UK Association of Transactional Analysis). I am fully insured and I am a member with ICO (Information Commissioner's Office). I have a full DBS certificate and I hold a safeguarding certificate. I am working towards my Master's level in Transactional Analysis psychotherapy, in which I have finished Advanced level and I am working on my final dissertation.
My office is located in the center of Taunton. Parking is free and there is a cafe on-site if you need a break either before or after our sessions. .
I hold a first aid certificate and always have a first aid kit in my office.
Please send me a message from the contact form and I will be in contact soon.
