Solveig welcomes the collaborative work of setting goals and tailoring therapy to each client's context and priorities.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Solveig commonly uses Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help people and couples identify and change patterns in emotional responses and interactions; this approach fosters stronger emotional bonds and helps with relationship distress and intimacy concerns. She also incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) when addressing trauma and painful memories - EMDR helps the brain process distressing experiences so they become less disruptive to daily life. Additionally, attachment-based work explores early relationship patterns and how they shape present-day connections, which can be useful for attachment issues, abandonment concerns, and family dynamics.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Solveig works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, adapting techniques as progress unfolds and priorities change.

Online therapy with Solveig is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations and life transitions while allowing licensed professionals to tailor sessions to each client's practical needs and therapeutic aims.
