Information about my services during the Corona restrictions

Getting support during the current situation

I can meet you at my office as long as I and you are completely free of respiratory or cold/flulike symptoms. If you notice any symptoms or live with people who have symptoms, stay home - I'll do the same. 


I keep a two-metre distance between our chairs. I wipe off all common contact points with Antibac between sessions.


I continue to offer sessions online for those of you who can't or prefer not to meet me at the office. I use the Norwegian platform Confrere, which meets all privacy criteria set out in the GDPR legislation. While meeting in person is best, both I and my clients have been surprised how good an online session can be. I send you a link the evening before our session, and you simply click on the link when it's time for the session to begin. There's nothing to download.


Appointments can be cancelled or postponed at any point up to the time they would have begun if you develop symptoms or cannot meet hygiene criteria for any other reason.


I myself am in the high-risk group, so I can assure you that I take all precautions seriously. Let's stay safe together!


Let me know how you would like to hold your session, and feel free to contact me for any reason.

Are you curious about why you react the way you do?

Would you like someone to talk to, someone who is trained to support you and help you develop insight and self-support?


Coaching and therapy are about personal growth and how you handle what life throws at you. The gestalt method is based on the idea that the person you are in any given situation is influenced by the situation and your reactions to it.  When you are fully present in the moment in a non-judgmental way new choices become apparent and you have the best basis for making good decisions. The role of a gestalt coach or therapist is to help you explore what it means to be present. In this way you become aware of why you react the way you do, and you can choose to react in new and more fruitful ways. 

Are you curious about how gestalt can add to your life? 


I'm a trained gestalt coach, and am currently in my practicum as a gestalt therapist in training at The Norwegian Gestalt Institute College (NGI). You can read more about the gestalt method, about me, and practical details about what I can offer if you scroll down.


Don't hesitate to contact me - I'm happy to answer your questions!

The gestalt method

I won't give advice or tell you what to do.

So what does a gestalt coach or therapist do?


The gestalt method is based on recognising how we are influenced by people and events, and how our words and actions influence situations we're in and people we interact with. When we see things as they actually are, as opposed to how we wish they were, new possibilities seem to come out of nowhere. These possibilities were likely there all along, but we were distracted by our wishes for change.


This is called the paradoxical theory of change: When we accept how we think and feel, we discover that it's possible to choose to behave or react in new ways. Take a look at the image above. Do you see a vase, or two faces in profile? Through the gestalt method, we learn to see ourselves and others in a new light. 


This method is based on two branches of philosophy: existentialism and phenomenology. It had its beginnings as a form of therapy in the 1940s and 50s, and was later adapted to coaching. 

About me

Background

I'm an American, born in 1964. I moved to Norway in 1987.


I worked as a professional orchestral musician here in Norway for 12 years. I have bachelor and master degrees in music from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States (1987) and The Norwegian State Academy of Music (1991), respectively. In 2011 I completed a masters degree in East Asian Linguistics (Chinese) at The University of Oslo. If you'd like to read about my research in Classical Chinese, you can click here.


I'm married and have a son, born in 1992.

Qualifications

From 1999 - 2017 I had a management position at Oslo's public library, where I was responsible for team development and had personal supervision of 22 employees. It was through this work that I developed a strong interest in helping individuals with personal and professional development.  From May 2017 to December 2018 the focus of my position at the library was developing and maintaining systems and routines that affect employees' daily working lives, and giving general support to the employees who worked directly with the public.


In 2016 I completed a two-year coaching programme at The Norwegian Gestalt Institute College (NGI), and in 2019 I completed a four-year training in psychotherapy.  I'm a member of the Norwegian Gestalt Therapist Association (www.ngfo.no) and an accredited member of the professional organisation GPO. I participate regularly in professional supervision with experienced coaches and therapists. I'm an associate professor at NGI, where I teach student therapists and coaches.


I've completed NGI's two-year International Advanced Training and an 18-month supervisor education and am currently just over half way through a four-year programme of advanced training at Instituto di Gestalt in Italy. 


I'm married for the second time and have a son, born in 1992.
