I work with men and fathers from different countries who live in Denmark. You might speak English at work and another language at home, or be raising children with a partner who grew up here. We can take the time to understand how your family works, including the expectations you and your partner grew up with.
Perhaps the pressure from work follows you home: you’re still answering messages at the table and a small interruption gets a sharper reply than you meant to give. Or perhaps since you had children, you and your partner mostly talk about pick-up times and who’s getting up in the night. These are specific situations we can look at together.
If you’re raising children far from family or old friends, the people you’d usually turn to may be a phone call away rather than around the corner. We can look at what you’re doing on your own and where you might want support.
A reaction that seems out of proportion can also bring you to therapy. You raise your voice when your child knocks over a cup, or you go quiet when your partner disagrees. We can look at what happens just before that response. If anger is the main issue, you can read my Danish page on how I work with anger.
