Services
All services can be provided in several languages: Norwegian, Swedish, English, Farsi or Dari
Assessment
I carry out assessment and formulate diagnoses by using clinical interview, observation and psychological tests.
Treatment - Individual follow-up
I can provide different type of help and treatment: cognitive therapy, psychodynamic, emotion-focused therapy, or integrative approach. I will find out which kind of approach is the most appropriate one for you!
Treatment - Group therapy
I can also provide group-therapy for those with a PTSD diagnose. This is an area in which I would like to do some in-depth clinical studies. This is of especial interest for me to explore how culturally-anchored characteristics in patient group with a non-Norwegian ethnicity may explain differences in symptom expression.
Online consultation
Consultations can get provided online via Skype if you do not live here and cannot meet up in person.
Linguistic consultation
I can provide consultations to families with child with special learning and educational needs such as dyslexia, aphasia or general reading and language difficulties. If you have a minority background and use several languages than Norwegian at home, I may help you to handle development of bi-/multilingualism in your children in a good way.
Family support
Certain family life phases can be challenging, for example hard times with respect to childbirth, puberty-related changes in adolescents or grief reactions to loss, break-up and divorce. It is important to get help for dealing with a crisis quickly. You do not need to sit alone in the dark. Seek out help! I am here and can collaborate with you.
Collaboration and correspondence with other helping agents
If necessary, I can communicate with your physician or other helping agents in the treatment case.
Education and teaching
I can provide teaching services in form of workshops, talks or courses, particularly about my research areas and also clinical and cognitive psychology.
