Psychotherapy and support for families and couples
I offer support for parenting and relationships at different stages of a family's life. I have graduated as a couple and family psychotherapist in December 2022. My reception is currently in the centre of Helsinki. Remote reception or home visits (to certain areas) are also possible. Contact us and we'll talk more. You can find more information about me as a psychotherapist behind this link .
COUPLE PSYCHOTHERAPY
All relationships face ups and downs. Especially when the family situation changes, it is easy for a relationship to go into crisis. Everyday challenges, such as a new family member or work stress, can also put a strain on a relationship. Couples psychotherapy is usually attended with a partner. It is good to come to the reception when the challenges still are small. When facing small challenges, a few meetings may be sufficient.
Couples often come to couple psychotherapy when their relationship is in a big crisis. In that case, several meetings are usually needed.
Couple psychotherapy can also be used when one or the other in the couple are facing troubles or have health issues. Rehabilitation psychotherapy supported by KELA can be an option.
INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY
I also offer individual psychotherapy to self-paying clients.
FAMILY PSYCHOTHERAPY
Family psychotherapy can be applied for many reasons. The reason may be difficult relationships and big conflicts or a serious illness of a family member.
Family psychotherapy can be useful in various crises of development and life stages, such as puberty, divorce, new family or the death of a loved one.
Family psychotherapy strengthens or recreates family relationships, supports family communication and interaction, creates common understanding, supports joint problem solving.
Sometimes things are resolved very quickly, sometimes more time is needed.
In the family psychotherapy process, the family is met in different formations, the aim is that everyone is heard.
Family psychotherapy can also be supported by KELA. rehabilitation psychotherapy.
