Psychology is knowledge and methods about the human mind, behavior, and relationships. Originally, the word “psychology” meant the study of the spirit, which I understand as the study of the natural stream within that gives life and moves our existence. This fundamental vitalizing aspect is excluded from much of psychology today.

What characterizes my approach is that I use psychological understandings and methods which include attention to the natural, which is given to you from the moment you entered existence. I use elements from Somatic Experiencing, NARM, EFT, and generally humanistic psychology.

The natural is non-verbal and is because of that difficult to describe. The natural flows through all that we are. It vitalizes us and unfolds through us until we die. It can also be described as having natural fundamental qualities and functions that are very different from that which is learned; The natural makes the heart beat, and the breath happen, it is the ground for our ability to sense, feel and think. The natural can be obscured by our conditioned ideas and patterns. But when we have the courage to listen to the natural within us, it will often spontaneously open deeper into its qualities and functions such as strength, joy, creativity, and meaning.

The awareness of psychological understandings combined with resources from the natural provides, as I have learned it internally and with clients, a possibility to more directly reorganize that which are holding you back and from that discover room for greater unfoldment in life.

I am inspired by psycho-spiritual understandings, which are grounded in spiritual experiences, that I also see as part of the natural in us. I have studied Diamond Approach, Enneagram, and Vækstcenterpedagogy. And I am inspired by the traditions of wisdom, such as Christian Gnosticism, Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta, and Kashmir Shaivism. For me, their value lies in their tools and appeal to examine for oneself what life is. I do not directly use these experiences and understandings in our dialogues, but the influence will be there indirectly since I am influenced by these.
