When stress has become the background of daily life
For individuals carrying more than they should have to, and organizations whose people are running too close to empty.
Stress that doesn’t go away on its own
Chronic stress has a way of becoming invisible — not because it is gone but because it has become familiar. The exhaustion, the difficulty switching off, the sense of running on less than you need, the irritability that surprises you — these are not personal failures. They are signals worth taking seriously.
In individual therapy, we can look at what is driving the stress in your particular life — not just the circumstances but the patterns, the history, and the ways you have learned to cope that may have served you at one point and now no longer do. This is not stress management in the conventional sense. It is a more thorough understanding of what is actually happening, and what might genuinely change.
I work with individuals experiencing stress, burnout, anxiety, and overwhelm in Sweden and Illinois, USA, and online — in English.
Evidence-based resiliency training
Certified facilitator of the SMART-R program through Harvard’s Benson-Henry Institute for Mind-Body Medicine — an evidence-based curriculum in stress management, relaxation response, adaptive coping, and resiliency skills.
Original program design
Designed and built a wellness program for first-year medical residents from the ground up — beginning with a careful assessment of the specific stressors of that environment before writing a single session.
Contemplative experience
A year spent living within a monastery provided a firsthand understanding of what sustained attention, structured simplicity, and genuine silence actually produce — and what they require to be of real use.
Wellness support that fits the actual demands of your environment
Most wellness programs arrive with a fixed curriculum and expect the organization to fit itself around it. The ones that actually change something start the other way — with a close look at what's really driving stress in that particular team or environment, personal and structural both, before anything is offered.
This work is particularly suited to organizations in high-demand fields — healthcare, education, professional services — where stress is structural as much as personal, and where standard wellness offerings often fail to address what is actually driving burnout and disengagement.
I work in English with organizations in Sweden, the United States, and internationally — in Stockholm and remotely. If you are thinking about wellness support for your team and would like to begin with a conversation rather than a proposal, I would be glad to talk.
Get in touch
For individuals, I offer an initial consultation to see if working together might be a good fit. For organizations, I am happy to begin with a conversation about what your team actually needs.
