Mia Montonen
Hello and welcome to my website!
I am a psychotherapist specializing in family and couples therapy, as well as a work supervisor (STOry). My background is in nursing and I hold a Master of Social Sciences degree. I have work experience as a nurse, as a developer and specialist in the social sector, in project and organizational work, and in managerial roles. For nearly my entire career, I have worked in one way or another with children, parents, and families.
I have worked as a work supervisor since 2011 and qualified as a psychotherapist in 2022. I continue to pursue further training: most recently in Vakauttava perhe- ja pariterapia, and I am currently training to become an EMDR therapist. As a member of the board of the Finnish Association for Family and Couples Therapy and as the national editor of the publication Fokus på familien, I stay up to date and continue to learn new things.

Customer's story
We have had a necessary conversation, I understand my colleagues better. We have learned to recognize each other's strengths and ask for help. We have gone in a better direction and the goals have been achieved
Participated in group supervision
We have been able to really talk about things when there has been someone who creates space.
Participant in couples therapy
Mia has a gently firm, matter-of-fact and bright way of guiding the workshops from the workers' point of view. The workshop had an authentic, safe and comfortable atmosphere. In my opinion, the workshop was the best moment in the work community's time together so far, so I hope for more moments like this!
Attended the workshop
I got many interesting thoughts. The best was that the next day, we had a peaceful morning at home!
