Solution-focused therapy and sexual counselling in Tapiola, Espoo.

I have worked in both clinical and educational settings before starting my private practice two years ago. I am a solution-focused therapist (with a PgDip in solution-focused therapy). I have an MSc in Psychology and I’m in the process of completing my Basic Sexology degree, after which I will also have the sexual counsellor accreditation of Suomen Seksologinen Seura (Finnish Sexology Society). I speak fluent English and can provide solution-focused brief therapy in English.

I believe that in a trusting, reflective relationship it’s possible to find a solution to any problem and with that in mind, clients’ individual needs and their own personal resources are at the centre of the therapy services that I provide. You can come see me with an issue regarding a life change, a crisis or any other aspect of life that is puzzling or bothering you. Together we can begin to work towards a solution that works for you. I have experience working with individuals from all walks of life (e.g. people with mental health issues; sex, gender and sexuality related issues; eating, anxiety and mood disorders; and/or work and family crises).

I can meet you at your own convenience for a one-off consultation, brief therapy (3-20x) or long-term therapy. I have experience in working with children (10-15-year-olds), young adults and adults. I also provide couples’ and family therapy services and sexual counselling.

You are in no way expected to commit to a therapy process before our first meeting. Should you wish to continue for a longer process after the first appointment, we can develop a plan together to make sure that you get exactly the kind of support you need.

My office is located in Tapiola, Espoo, only 20 minutes from Kamppi, and the nearest bus stop is located right outside. Don’t hesitate to e-mail me (anna.taavitsainen@gmail.com) or contact me on the Ota yhteyttä form for any additional information or if you’re interested in booking an appointment.
