Psykolog Michelle Lindhardt

Metakognitiv psykolog i København

Jeg har bred erfaring med at varetage metakognitive terapiforløb fra et andet (også førende) psykologhus i København - både individuelle forløb samt gruppeforløb. Gennem årene har jeg modtaget meget undervisning og supervision indenfor den metakognitive metode.

Jeg har taget en specialiseringsuddannelse i metakognitiv terapi, og er certificeret metakognitiv terapeut (Level I) og også godt igang med Level II. Uddannelsen er fra det officielle MCT Institute, der drives af ophavsmanden til metakognitiv terapi, professor Adrian Wells. Jeg elsker at arbejde med metoden i mit psykologiske arbejde, og oplever samtidig, at mine klienter finder metakognitiv terapi enormt meningsfuld. 

Derudover har jeg arbejdet en del med psykologisk forskning, og assisteret med flere forskningsprojekter omhandlende metakognitiv terapi, som behandling til forskellige problemstillinger. Jeg holder mig altid opdateret på den nyeste forskning og bestræber på at integrere det i mit arbejde. Jeg vægter at arbejde evidensbaseret og har høj faglighed i fokus. 

Metakognitiv terapi er en evidensbaseret metode, som specifikt kan hjælpe til at identificere uhensigtsmæssige strategier samt reducere bekymringer og grublerier, som kan påvirke din livskvalitet negativt. Det er helt normalt at opleve mange negative tanker, men når tankerne kommer til at fylde for meget, så kan det påvirke ens energi, overskud, og generelle livskvalitet. Det brænder jeg for at hjælpe dig med at vende.

Det er vigtigt for mig at skabe en tillidsfuld relation, hvor du bliver mødt med empati, og du trygt kan dele de problemstillinger, som fylder for dig. I terapien vil vi sammen danne os et overblik over din nuværende situation, og arbejde med konkrete metakognitive øvelser, som du kan overføre til din hverdag. Jeg vil hjælpe dig med at bryde uhensigtsmæssige strategier, og skabe nogle mere hjælpsomme mønstre, der kan hjælpe dig til at få din livskvalitet, glæde og overskud tilbage. Og jeg er med hele vejen.

Jeg brænder meget for det jeg laver, og ønsker blot at gøre en forskel, hvor jeg kan. Jeg ser meget frem til at høre fra dig, og hjælpe dig videre!

I offer therapy in English. You can read about me here...

My name is Michelle Lindhardt and I have a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Utrecht University. As a psychologist, I work with metacognitive therapy which I have a lot of experience with. I’m passionate about making a difference for adults and teenagers who struggle with mental health. I particularly have experience with treating stress, anxiety, grief, depression, OCD, insomnia and low self-esteem. I’m looking forward to help you with the challenges that you’re facing :-)

Metacognitive psychologist in Copenhagen and online

I have broad experience in metacognitive therapy, conducting both individual and group sessions. Besides facilitating in-person sessions, I've worked with a diverse clientele from across the globe, honing my skills in conducting online therapy sessions. Having lived abroad for several years, I understand the challenges faced by internationals in navigating diverse cultural landscapes. As a psychologist, I strive to make evidence-based therapy more accessible on a global scale, bridging cultural and geographical barriers to ensure individuals from all backgrounds have access to evidence-based mental health care.

In addition to ongoing supervision, I've completed specialized training in metacognitive therapy, earning certification as an MCT-I® registered therapist (Level I) from the MCT Institute under the guidance of Professor Adrian Wells, the founder of MCT. In my practice, I have found metacognitive therapy to be profoundly meaningful and effective, an experience shared by my clients who have found it to be very valuable as well.

Aside from my clinical work, I have contributed to psychological research investigating the effectiveness of metacognitive therapy in addressing different mental health issues (e.g., insomnia, prolonged grief disorder, and binge eating disorder). Continuously staying up-to-date with the latest empirical research, I strive to integrate the newest knowledge into my therapeutic work to ensure the delivery of high quality evidence-based practice.

Metacognitive therapy is an evidence-based treatment that effectively identifies maladaptive strategies and reduces excessive worry and rumination, significantly impacting our mental well-being. While experiencing negative thoughts throughout the day is normal, feeling trapped in negative thought patterns can severely impact our mental well-being. My goal is to help you alter these patterns and gain greater control over your thought processes, to ultimately improve your mental health and overall well-being.

I find it crucial to establish a trustworthy and empathic connection in which you feel comfortable to share the pressing matters you are dealing with. During therapy, we will assess your current situation and work with concrete metacognitive exercises to help you to gain more control over your thought processes. Through this process, you'll learn to break free from unhelpful patterns and cultivate more adaptive strategies which can significantly improve your mental well-being.

I'm genuinely passionate about making a positive impact through my work. I’m looking forward to hearing from you and helping you overcome the mental challenges you’re currently facing :-)
 

Warm regards,
Michelle Lindhardt
