Dr Moa Lundström

Psychotherapy is first and foremost about knowing yourself. Sometimes people feel they are going wrong somewhere, but don’t know where or why. Other times, it’s glaringly obvious and they want to know how to change. Sometimes there are deep wounds that need to be lifted out of the dark to heal. The template that was in place in our early experiences will form our view and understanding of the world. Uncovering this is an important part of the work that happens in therapy. I help clients understand their own internal processes, how emotions affect not just your direct interpretation and experience of the world but also your body and behaviour. I base my work in body/mind science.

Sometimes symptoms are expressions of something having gone wrong in our past, and other times people just get themselves tangled up in a way that they realise now is not working for them. But chances are you were always just doing the best you could with the tools you had at the time. Through therapy you will gain awareness and new tools, and so be able to respond differently when challenges present themselves. Breaking the cycle of unwanted experiences and behaviour is absolutely possible, but it takes the courage to be vulnerable, and have self-compassion which I hope you will gain quickly in our sessions. I have a special interest working with people on the psychosis spectrum, and people who are hearing voices. I like to work outside the frames of diagnoses where a subjective understanding which holds personal meaning for the client is sought.
