Therapy & Fitness
I offer you unique assistance, to improve your life and health, a whole package. Let me explain; besides being a talk-therapist I'm a Swedish license physiotherapist and fitness trainer. have a lot of life, work experience, and academic studies to back it up. Furthermore, I'm in my fifties and have called four countries on four different continents home. You can say I have been around the block, at least a couple of times.🙂
For one to admit having psychological issues it still today associated with a a lot of shame and guilt. Why? Because the way we label it, psychological issues or problems. This makes people think there is something seriously wrong with you, at least many think others think that, When the right way to word it would be; "I think I need to go and talk to someone to sort my thoughts out."
If you broke your ankle you would go to the ER immediately and get it x-rayed and a cast. The thought, I wait for six months and if things don't get better I talk to my physician wouldn't even cross your mind. No one would judge you for going to the hospital. Do you think others would consider you weak if you said, I have some mental issues I need to deal with, especially if you are a man. If anyone would think that way, isn't their problem? You like to be content with life and be the best you can be for yourself and loved ones, then you are the one who needs to man/woman up and get help. Broken ankle or "broken mind" both will heal with the right treatment. It doesn't matter what others say about you, what is important what you say to yourself about yourself. It requires self-awareness to admit you need some help to sort out some thoughts, feelings, and behavior.

How do you behave, talk, dress, and smell. Are you happy with your social life; friends and partner. Do you have a partner? What about hobbies? I can help you to see things from another perspective and by doing that new doors will open up. You decide to enter through those doors or not, at least you will see what's available. It's so, so easy to be bored, discontent about life and whine about it. It takes a lot of courage to want to change and more to implement changes.
