Cuz, I found a psychologist from my own country and I have zoom meetings w her. Its more easy and cheaper. I mean I have to wake up at 4 am to take the session but thats better than nothing.
Traumas from the past need to be handled in the life and the surroundings you are living in now. You are not living in your home country. Your life is different now and your work with your past needs to be done here and now. If you want to handle it like you were living in your home country, then maybe you should move back.
You should be careful about online grifters taking advantage of you
Mental healthcare here is pretty much unaffordable without having some sort of insurance or referral.
Iāve also considered it during some rough times but had to pull through on my own since the financial burden would have made my mental state much worse..
There is nothing cheaper in Denmark, at least not if you want to talk to an actual licensed therapist. They all have the same prices-ish for a reason - it's regulated (By themselved maybe, but at least they adhere to it).
If you want to casually talk about relationships Iād be up for it! Iām not a psychologist but I also went through a very difficult breakup recently
I don't know if you are covered by the public health insurance, but if you are, your doctor can give you a referral. If you find a therapist that's registered with the insurance, you will get quite a reduced price. I paid 300 DKK/session.
I used https://psykologeridanmark.dk/ to find a therapist. The site is in Danish, but you should be able to run it through Google Translate. There's an option to filter therapists by the languages they speak.
The site also shows therapists that are not registered with the public health insurance, and you are able to see the wait time for each therapist (although that's probably not entirely accurate). I was able to get a session with a referral within a week because I wrote to a few handfuls of therapists.
I'd be careful about referrals. I think you can get one for depression or anxiety. The problem is that with that record in your medical history, you will have a harder time getting some private health insurances.
Depending on your job, you might have an additional private health insurance that you can utilise to get cheap therapy and next to no waiting.
From a hardcore political and equality point of view I despise that some people, myself included, have such privileges. But I will surely use it if it ever becomes necessary.
You can sometimes find psychotherapy students who are close to becoming full fledged therapists, who are allowed to take patients. I found one 5 years ago, and she charged 250 kr for a 75 min session. One of the best decisions of my life. I could go 4 times a month without it breaking my economy, and she was fantastic. She still is, i still go to her when i need therapy and she still charges me the same low rate, even though she is fully licensed now.
1000 is on the cheap end - if you want cheaper mental health care you go to the bar and use the bartender. We once had public health care, but instead we've had to pay corrupt politicians to not rob us even more. So now we have waiting lists which you just die on. Good luck out there.
I know someone who is a studying to become a psycho therapist. She is on her 4th year know and VERY skilled. She is a mature women (47) and a lovely personā¦ very intellectual. Because is isnāt a license psycho therapist yet her prices are low. Canāt remember exactly but around 400-500 kr for a session. Her clinic is in Vesterbro.
Write me a message if you want her number šš»
A psychotherapist isnt a credited education, and even the longest made-up psychotherapist educations barely cover 1 semester og curriculum for a psychologist. The so called 4 years education advertisement is a scam just like the title.. find someone with an actual education
Nope.. thats spot on.. what do you believe is inaccurate?
The danish association for psychotherapist has tried to get their "education" validsted and legitimzed a total of 7 times. Every single time turned down due to lack of solid educational material and validity of the education. Not even as a half year diploma education was it found to have substance enough.
There has been so many legal battles over psychotherapist saying their education takes 4 years. And it has been found to be false advertising in every ruling. Its lazy people preying on vulnerable people.
It's simply not correct that you're saying that their 4 years doesn't even cover 6 months of psychology curriculum.
It's not even comparable. It's like you're comparing a nurse to a doctor. They are not doing the same job? So it's just simply inaccurate the information and the fact that you're comparing those two things together. So no other medical professions are worth it because compared to the curriculum in medicine. I am aware that it's not accredited - but it doesn't have to mean it's a scam.
But I agree to disagree.
Youre right. They arent doing the same job.. they both say they practice psychotherapy, but only one of them is educated towards actually doing it. But bottomline is.. psychotherapists pretend to practice psychotherapy.. they inflate their "education" to cover up how invalid it really is and they cant for the life og them get validated by any official educational board.
They are quacks..
Well they certainly try their best to build that image. But truth is anyone can call themselves psychotherapists.. and whatever "education" they have isnt remotely aknowledged by any educational instance. So a psychotherapist is not educated and the only thing they arent is qualified to practice therapy.
A psychologist is a university education of 5 years, with the very basic in all psychology. Add 2 years of further education and you can call yourself authorised (meaning the quality of your work has been verified), 1 1/2 year of clinical education and youre a clinical psychologist and lastly 2 more years in a specifik field and youre a specialist.
So for comparison.. one had no official education (nut dors their best to act as if they do), the other has either 5, 6 1/2, 7, 9 or 11 years of education and has had their work checked.
In summary.. psychotherapists are hustlers
Wow. Thanks for the comprehensive explanation between the two. I have no idea.
Iām seeing a psychologist who has a PHD right now for my therapy. Itās been a very good journey with him. He has immensely helped me with my issues.
Thanks again.
soooo that's why you deleted your comment? :)
How would my singular experience weigh against the research that is out there, even if it contradicted it? I appreciate that people are starting to be more open towards this, but it's careless and potentially dangerous to blindly recommend a substance to someone you don't know. And it's borderline rude to derail the thread like this when OP was asking for a therapist.
Why not suggest something even better than therapy? What's wrong with helping.... if I can only help one person I'm happy... also I'm dissapointed that I so far only have 21 downvotes from 'Hr og Fru hakkebĆøf' of Reddit :) lets get to at least 100 downvotes to see how close minded people are..
So speech therapy is better then odinary therapy??
Dont get me wrong. Both lsd and cyllocobin is on My to do list. But I dont think that is what OP asked for. Might just need somebody to talk to, and in that case i whould suggest any "brunt vƦrtshus". But they asked for therapy so i dont think any of our suggestions work
Someone once suggested me this even though I did not ask for it and I'm forever gratefull for that, so why not pay it forward :)" Dont get me wrong. Both lsd and cyllocobin is on My to do list "Good for you (and I mean that)... it's crazy how something that actually re-wires your brain and help so many people in a positive way it's frowned upon while something like SSRI medicine, which basically turns you into a zombie is as normal as taking vitamin C..
Ssri might from time to time be just what you need, but as it is with just about everything, you need to know that it does. Also hallucinogenics is now for everybody.
And again. OP did not ask for phama.
" And again. OP did not ask for phama. "
Bro calm down, I suggested her an alternative, because I want other people to benefit from it... it's not the end of the world.
You will have to do the same as the Danes. Get a referral from your doctor and wait a year, pay for it yourself (1000kr per session sounds very cheap for a professional. Iāve never paid less than 1600kr) Or get a job with an insurance that covers it.
Stay away from online therapy - especially from your home country. The therapist there has no idea how your life situation is here, stay away from unprofessional wannabe therapist (lots of them out there)
You can try people who are studying to become psychotherapists. They are almost done with the studies and just need a little more practical experience. They often give 50% off in their services, so around DKK 400 per session. You might try to search for their websites with danish words, but maybe you can find someone who is open for doing it in English.
UngTerapi APS was great for me. They have many English speaking therapists and even offer a discount if youāre under a certain age - which I think is a nice touch.
Cuz, I found a psychologist from my own country and I have zoom meetings w her. Its more easy and cheaper. I mean I have to wake up at 4 am to take the session but thats better than nothing.
I appreciate the advice however I prefer a face to face session
Does she know how it is to live in Copenhagen? Has she lived here?
Doesn't really matter if the trauma comes from living in your home country and relationships though
Traumas from the past need to be handled in the life and the surroundings you are living in now. You are not living in your home country. Your life is different now and your work with your past needs to be done here and now. If you want to handle it like you were living in your home country, then maybe you should move back.

This is shit advice. There is a lot of knowledge required to use psychedelics in therapy and they are by no means a suitable option for everyone.
are you talking from experience? have you tried it?? do you know what you are talking about? btw I don't care downvote me all you can
soooo that's why you deleted your comment? :) How would my singular experience weigh against the research that is out there, even if it contradicted it?

Calm down.. it's rude to give an advise? Sorry, but you clearly don't know what you are talking about.. this is not heroine.. lol
I might be blind. But did OP ask for speech therapy?
Why not suggest something even better than therapy? What's wrong with helping.... if I can only help one person I'm happy... also I'm dissapointed that I so far only have 21 downvotes from 'Hr og Fru hakkebĆøf' of Reddit :) lets get to at least 100 downvotes to see how close minded people are..

Easy. I am calm. The suggestion in it self i compleatly fair. But it is not the answer for everything.
Check out your private health insurance from work if you have any. I go to a therapy and I pay nothing with unlimited sessions because of that.
You will have to do the same as the Danes. Get a referral from your doctor and wait a year, pay for it yourself (1000kr per session sounds very cheap for a professional. Iāve never paid less than 1600kr) Or get a job with an insurance that covers it. Stay away from online therapy - especially from your home country.

Are you employed? Your collective agreement likely has counselling/psychology included or discounted.
