Individual Counseling

Individual counseling consists of one-to-one sessions in which we work through difficult emotions, thoughts, and life events in a safe and confidential setting. The aim is not to hand out ready-made advice, but to understand what you are going through together and to strengthen what works for you.

What can you bring to counseling?

• Anxiety, intense stress, and burnout
• Grief, loss, and separation
• Relationship and communication difficulties
• Decision-making, career, and life transitions
• Self-confidence, self-compassion, and self-understanding

How do sessions work?

In the first session we talk about your reasons for seeking support and your expectations, and we set goals together. In the following sessions we work with evidence-based methods at your pace. Sessions are usually weekly, and we review the process together as it moves forward.

Frequently asked questions

How many sessions will I need?
It depends on your concerns and goals. After the first sessions we outline an approximate frame together.

Are sessions confidential?
Yes. What you share is kept confidential within professional ethics and the law; I explain the limits of confidentiality in the first session.

Does counseling replace medical treatment?
No. Diagnosis and medication are the field of psychiatry. If needed, I will refer you to the relevant specialist.
