Practical information
Here you will find information about how the work begins, the length and frequency of sessions, fees and payment, and where sessions take place.
Beginning the work
I offer private psychodynamic psychotherapy for adults.
The work usually begins with two or three 45-minute sessions. You do not need to prepare anything in particular or tell everything in a particular order. We explore what you would like help with, how the difficulties affect your life, and what the work might focus on. At the same time, you have the opportunity to form your own impression of me and of whether there is sufficient trust for us to work together.
We then decide together whether psychodynamic psychotherapy is a suitable form and, if so, how the work should continue. We formulate a focus and agree on the framework. I usually recommend that we meet once a week. The length of treatment is not determined in advance, but is adapted to your aims and circumstances and can be reviewed as the work progresses.
Fees and payment
The fee is SEK 1,050 per session. Payment is made via Swish, a Swedish mobile payment service.
If you need to cancel, please do so as soon as possible. A missed appointment, or a cancellation or rescheduling made less than 24 hours before the appointment, is charged at the full session fee of SEK 1,050.
Training patient within ISTDP
Since spring 2026, I have been undertaking further training in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). As part of this training, I am able to offer a limited number of psychotherapy places at a reduced fee.
The first six sessions are offered at SEK 200 per session. Video recording is an important tool within ISTDP and helps me review subtle patterns in our interaction and use supervision to refine the treatment. Recordings are handled with strict confidentiality and are used only within the context of treatment, supervision and training. Recording only takes place after you have received information about how the material is used and handled and have given your consent.
After the first six sessions, we will jointly consider whether further treatment is appropriate and, if so, under what conditions.
Places are limited and this arrangement is not suitable for everyone.
Location and session format
The practice is located at Stora Nygatan 40 in central Malmö. More detailed directions will be provided in a welcome message once we have agreed on an appointment.
The work can be conducted partly online if you prefer. Sessions can be held in Swedish or English.
The building is accessible. Further accessibility information can be provided before your visit.
Vårdval Psykoterapi
Polaris Psykoterapi has been approved to provide psychodynamic psychotherapy within Region Skåne’s Vårdval Psykoterapi scheme. The service has not yet started within the scheme and therefore does not currently accept referrals. At present, only private psychotherapy is offered. This page will be updated once the start date has been confirmed.
When you get in touch, I normally respond within 24 hours.
