Welcome

Thank you!
I am a professor, a child- and adolescent psychiatrist and trauma therapist based in Sweden, specializing in non-pharmacological approaches to treat depression and symptoms linked to stress and overwhelming life experiences. I educate and support professionals and others committed to young people’s mental health.  In my clinic I apply a holistic psychiatric model based on many aspects of health. I offer various forms of psychotherapy tailored for each person's needs and preferences. 

Research

My research aims to develop and test new, effective and contextually relevant ways to support and empower young people with depression, dissociation, anxiety, sleeping problems and overwhelming emotions. Training for Awareness Resilience and Action (TARA) is one example of a new research-based model to help and support young people with depression. The safety and effectiveness of Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy is also investigated as a potential treatment for young adults with depression.

Speaking

Some webinars and lectures are tailored for professionals in the field of mental health and some for anyone who wants to support young people, themselves and their communities. The content is grounded in developmental neuroscience, clinical research, systems theory, trauma therapy & more than 30 years of clinical experience. Contemplative and spiritual practices, community building and a concern for how the current meta-crisis is impacting young people have also informed this work. The practices and principles can be implemented in mental health contexts, communities, schools, families and other settings. 

Clinical Services

A holistic psychiatric approach is applied in my clinical work, addressing many aspects of health. I offer individual consultations on-line and in person in Stockholm, primarily for adults with symptoms of stress, trauma, depression, anxiety and dissociation. In addition, I support people who suffer from adverse experiences or existential distress sometimes after recreational use of psychedelics. The choice of psychotherapy method is adapted for each client. I mostly work with Internal Family Systems, Deep Brain Reorienting, Somatic Experiencing and Somatic Interactional Psychotherapy.
