Elizabeth Ekman - Phd. Psychology, Lic. Psychotherapist

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in English and Swedish

Focused online, short-term counselling and psychotherapy to help you gain clarity, tools, and change — without longer time of ongoing

sessions.

About me

I am licensed as a psychotherapist with a PhD in Psychology and more than 40 years of experience.

My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), specialst in Individuals with a cognitive profile with ASD (autism) and ADHD, its strenght and problems that can occure.

Since 1993, I have run a private practice, worked with children, ungsters and adults with various problems as well as with adults athletes at national and Olympic levels, and provided supervision and training for healthcare

professionals and psychotherapists. I have had online CBT educational programs since 2009 and presented workshops internationally.

Why Short-Term Therapy?

Traditional therapy often stretches over long time. It can be different and even more efficinet:

I offer short-term counselling and psychotherapy — designed to help you:

Understand your problem clearly and what you need to challenge

We do this by looking at and analys a situation when it occours. It will only take a short time

Learn practical strategies for change

When we have the analysis we can more easily know what startegy needs

to be aplied for you. What you have to change. There are good knowledge about what startegies will help for most of common problems.

Build skills you can continue to use independently

You might need to learn and pratice new skills or use more or less of some of the skills you already have. You might need some guidance and support when you practice the new skills

Often, just a few structured sessions can be enough to create meaningful shifts and give you the tools to move forward.

How it works

  • Book an online session – You are welcome to share a short description of your challenges when scheduling.

  • First 1-2 sessions – Together, we will clarify your presenting problem, identify your thoughts and emotions, and teach you how you can make a change and move forward (assessment).

  • Next steps – I will have follow ups how you are going about the changes you make and help you understand and learn more.
