Isolde Sundet

As your therapist my job is to help you first understand why you do the things you do so that you can begin to identify how you can make the changes you want. Most people come to me looking for help with relationships, chronic anxiety and/or depression, compulsive behaviors, or just overall stuck-ness in life or career. I work collaboratively which means we will work together in identifying what your goals are and what it looks like to make progress towards them. I am a psychodynamic therapist which means I’m more interested in the why than offering prescriptive, cookie cutter methods for self improvement. In my opinion, relationships and our capacity for intimacy with others are often a large part of finding peace and solutions. I help people navigate shame and move forward from issues that many individuals and couples face, but don’t always know how to talk about, like sexual addiction and infidelity/betrayal. As an American living in Portugal, I see many clients who are navigating a move abroad to Europe from the United States or other countries. Part of my work also involves working with clients who grew up in dysfunctional, narcissistic, or emotionally immature families thrive as adults. I look forward to meeting you!
