Receive professional couples therapy in Hillerød
A relationship is enriching, but it also requires constant work and maintenance. As experienced couples therapists, we guide you safely through the difficult conversations that you may not be able to have alone.
Our approach focuses on providing you with insights and tools. We help you identify and understand the underlying dynamics that lead to conflicts and distance in your relationship. Simultaneously, we assist you in listening more attentively and expressing your needs clearly, enabling you to discuss feelings without escalating into arguments.
In addition to communication, we can also work on specific themes such as intimacy, aligning expectations, and the ability to prioritize quality time with each other.

Not only for couples in crisis
Many couples believe that couples therapy is only necessary when divorce is knocking at the door. However, therapy is also a preventive investment in your shared future. It is always easier to work on the relationship while you both still want it.
A short preventive course may be relevant if you:
- Are expecting your first (or second) child and want to prepare the relationship for the new role.
- Experience minor friction and want to handle it before it grows larger.
- Have difficulty with intimacy or talking about it.
- Are a blended family struggling with new roles and dynamics.
Whether you are seeking preventive couples therapy to avoid a breakup or to create an even stronger foundation, we are ready to help you.

No, unfortunately, couples therapy is not covered by the Danish National Health Service. You may be able to have it covered by your private health insurance, if you have one.
A course of therapy varies greatly, as there is a significant difference in the issues each couple presents and what their goals are. A course of therapy is typically more intensive at the beginning, while there can be a long time between sessions in the concluding phase.
Couples therapy always begins by mapping out the couple’s current life situation and their goals for the process. We help you identify the entrenched patterns and dynamics that create conflict between you. For some couples, all sessions are conducted together, while in other cases, it proves relevant to work with the partners individually in parallel. This enables each partner to examine their own reaction patterns and the underlying factors. Regardless of the approach, the therapy will help you develop a common language and a new understanding of both your partner and your mutual interaction.
