About Sophie
I am a psychologist and a specialist in psychotherapy for adults, with a clinic in Frederiksberg. I specialise in low self-esteem, anxiety and unhelpful patterns in romantic relationships. I offer individual therapy and couple therapy. You are welcome with long-standing difficulties, or in an acute life crisis, for example divorce, grief, loss or another large change. We can also meet online.
I qualified as a psychologist (cand.psych.) at Aarhus University in 2011, and I have been a specialist in psychotherapy since 2021. Psychotherapy has been my great interest and passion for more than 15 years. I have worked with therapy in private practice and in psychiatry, and with intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy since 2013. My area of expertise is low self-esteem and what often follows: anxiety, stress, self-criticism, social anxiety, unhealthy perfectionism and problems setting healthy boundaries.
I also have particular knowledge of insecure attachment and unhealthy love patterns, and help both couples and single people to create a strong foundation for love. If you experience losing yourself in a romantic relationship, I offer a special course for that. In couple therapy I work from emotionally focused couple therapy and the emotional needs that drive the conflicts.
How Sophie works
I meet you with warmth, honesty and empathy, and adapt the therapy to your issue and unique personality.
I work especially from intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy (ISTDP), cognitive behavioural therapy and compassion-focused therapy. ISTDP stays with emotional life. I ask about the feelings and reactions you notice in real situations, and we look at defences and emotional conflicts that can get in the way of how you relate to yourself and to other people. In cognitive behavioural therapy we look at how thoughts, feelings and behaviour hang together and can influence states such as anxiety, stress and low mood. I use compassion-focused therapy especially with self-criticism, shame and the sense of not being good enough. We work on a more supportive inner voice, including through imagery, breathing and mindfulness.
With couples I work from emotionally focused couple therapy. I help you understand and work through the emotional needs underneath your conflicts.
Approaches
General information from Kyan about each method, not a description of how Sophie works.
Psychodynamic therapy
Psychodynamic therapy explores how earlier experiences, and feelings you may not be fully aware of, shape your life today. Patterns that show up in your relationships, and sometimes in the relationship with the therapist, become something to understand together. It is often used for recurring difficulties with mood, relationships and self-esteem.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions keep each other going. Together you notice the patterns that hold a problem in place and try out new ways of thinking and acting, often with small practical tasks between sessions. It is widely used for anxiety, low mood, stress and sleep problems.
Compassion-focused therapy
Compassion-focused therapy was developed for people who are very hard on themselves or struggle with shame and self-criticism. It helps you build a kinder, more supportive inner voice, with exercises for both mind and body. The aim is to feel steadier inside yourself and better able to face difficulties.
Emotion-focused therapy (EFT)
Emotion-focused therapy (EFT) sees emotions as important guides that can be understood and changed. It helps you notice, name and work with feelings, including painful ones, so they become less overwhelming. It is also widely used with couples, to understand the emotional cycles between partners and build a closer bond.

Questions and answers
Can we meet online?
Yes. Online sessions are possible if that suits you better. You can also come to the clinic in Frederiksberg. Both the first session and later sessions can happen in either place.
What happens in the first session?
The first session lasts 75 minutes. We look at what you are struggling with, your goals, and whether we should continue a course of therapy together. You can come to the clinic, or we can meet online.
How often do we meet?
I recommend weekly sessions to begin with, and we can adjust that later. How long a course of therapy lasts depends on what you are dealing with and on what you need.
How long until I can get an appointment?
I aim for you to have an appointment within 3 to 4 weeks of getting in touch.
Do you work with couples and with single people?
Yes. I offer individual therapy and couple therapy, and I help both couples and single people with patterns in their love life. If you find that you adapt too much in romantic relationships, I have a specific course of therapy for that.
Can I use a referral from my doctor?
No. I do not have an agreement with the public health insurance, so you cannot use a referral from your doctor with me.
