Couple therapy Copenhagen

Rødovre Terapicenter offers psychotherapy in English with a highly professional psychotherapist specialized in both individual and couples sessions. You will find our place cozy and welcoming and with easy access and free parking spaces.

We handle individual mental problems, or challenges with your romantic relationship or any other relationship: friends, siblings, parents, or colleagues. The way we facilitate the sessions makes it possible for you to make choices that are the most honest, authentic, and sustainable pathways for you.

We facilitate sessions based on the view that you are the expert in your life, you are living your life, and are accountable for the choices you make. Based on our extensive knowledge on how to facilitate sessions and the insight in research in how we as humans get caught in vicious cycles, negative patterns of thoughts and behavior, we can help you to take more accountability for your own healthy choices. The brain, thoughts, emotions, body, and senses all matters in this context.

The psychotherapists in Rødovre Therapy Center are each member of the Danish Psychotherapist Association and are bound by a duty of confidentiality and an ethical set of rules.

Stage 1: Breaking negative patterns

First session

You start with a joint session lasting 1.5 hours.

Two individual sessions

Next, you will book two individual sessions of 50 or 75 minutes, during which we will review your attachment history. See the link here.

Sessions focusing on “Breaking negative patterns”

This work consists of couples’ sessions lasting 60 or 75 minutes, depending on how much time you need to work from session to session. When you are familiar with the work, 60 minutes is preferable.

Stage 2 – Strengthening closeness

This phase focuses on deepening the bonds between you. The therapist guides you in managing vulnerability and intimacy, and if there are sexual challenges, you work on communication and needs.

We begin with two individual sessions, if you would like to reflect on the individual standpoints each of you has reached during your journey so far.

Individual sessions

Two sessions where we delve deeper into intimacy, longings, and barriers, including your sexual relationship, should you wish to address this.

Couples sessions for greater closeness

Now, we have a typical number of sessions (60-75 minutes) that help you engage in vulnerable conversations about needs, fears, insecurities, shame, deeper desires for intimacy, etc. Phase 1 has established greater trust and security between you. In Phase 2, the therapist can guide you into a deeper and more intimate and safe space. Including feeling safer to address sexual or intimate matters.

Stage 3 – Maintaining intimate dynamics

You adopt new strategies that help you fulfill your longings and dreams. The focus is on preserving closeness and strengthening the relationship in everyday life.
