Individual therapy in stockholm and online
A welcoming private space to understand yourself, change what is keeping you stuck, and create a life in flow
Sometimes you know exactly what is wrong. Sometimes you simply know that something isn't working anymore.
You may be anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted, disconnected from yourself or struggling in your relationships. You may be repeating patterns you understand intellectually but cannot seem to change. Or perhaps nothing is obviously “wrong”, but you feel that you are not living the life you want.
At Lives in Flow, our therapists offer individual therapy in Stockholm and online looking for meaningful, lasting change.
We work with a wide range of emotional, relational and life difficulties, combining evidence-based therapeutic approaches with a warm, personalised and collaborative way of working.
You don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. That is part of what therapy is for.

what can you expect from individual therapy?
Our gorgeous inner patio before you enter our offices
Therapy at Lives in Flow is personalised and collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.
We first want to understand what brings you to therapy, what you have already tried before and what you want to work with.
Depending on your needs, therapy may involve conversation, structured exercises, psychological education, experiential work, behavioural strategies, work with emotions and body sensations, or deeper exploration of the patterns behind your difficulties.
The goal is not simply to understand yourself better.
Our goal is to help you develop greater insight, respond with greater flexibility, build more fulfilling relationships (including the one with yourself) and create a life that is aligned with what matters most to you.

Our Individual Therapy Process

1. Meeting you
Our first session is about getting to know you, understanding what brings you to therapy and hearing what you would like to change. You don't need to arrive with all the answers. Together, we begin to make sense of what is happening and decide what kind of support would be most helpful.

2. Creating a personalised plan
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Depending on your needs and goals, we may draw from Schema Therapy, CBT, EFT, attachment-based approaches, somatic techniques, mindfulness and other evidence-based methods. Together, we create a therapeutic plan that feels relevant, meaningful and achievable.

3. Progress
As therapy progresses, we work together to develop new ways of thinking, feeling, communicating and responding to triggers. You may learn to recognise your unhelpful believes and patterns, regulate difficult emotions, set healthier boundaries, improve relationships and respond to yourself with greater care and compassion.

4. Necessary adjustments
As you progress in therapy, we observe where we are in regards to your goals. Here, your feedback is especially valuable. We will make the necessary therapeutic adjustments if some things are still difficult or if we consider important to add another area to work with.

5. Moving forward with confidence
As you become more confident in using what you have learned, sessions may become less frequent until you feel ready to move forward independently.
Our goal isn't for you to need therapy forever. It's for you to leave feeling more confident, connected and equipped to navigate life on your own.
