Individual online sessions
One-to-one psychological support for people living with fear, anxiety, or low mood in the context of cancer — available online, from wherever you are in the world.
Accepting enquiries for sessions from 11 August 2026
Who this is for
Individual sessions are for people who are going through cancer, who have completed treatment, or who are living with the longer-term psychological impact of cancer — as well as for loved ones of people who have been affected by cancer.
Sessions may be a good fit if you are living with:
- Fear of cancer recurrence — persistent worry or anxiety about cancer returning, progressing, or spreading
- Scan anxiety or significant distress around follow-up appointments
- Low mood, grief, or depressive symptoms in the context of cancer or its aftermath
- Anxiety, worry, or a persistent sense of vulnerability after cancer
- Difficulty adjusting to life during or after cancer — including changes to identity, relationships, or sense of the future
- A feeling of being expected to move on, while internally something has not settled
I work with both people whose psychological difficulties are directly connected to cancer, and people who are navigating the impact of cancer on someone they love.
You do not need to be in crisis to benefit from individual sessions. Many people find that working with fear or low mood before it becomes deeply entrenched makes a significant difference to how quickly things shift.
What sessions involve
Sessions are conducted online via a secure video platform, at a time that suits you. Each session is 50 minutes.
My approach is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and evidence-based health psychology, adapted to the specific psychological experience of cancer. Sessions are tailored to your situation — your history, your particular pattern of difficulty, and what matters most to you.
The goal is not necessarily to remove discomfort, but to create more flexibility, calm, and the possibility of living a meaningful life — even when things are hard.
How it works
Many people find it helpful to know what a psychological process typically looks like before getting started. Below is an outline of how sessions usually unfold — though the pace and structure are always adapted to what makes sense for you.
1. Get in touch
You are welcome to contact me in whatever way feels most natural. You can use the contact form on this page, send an email directly, or book a session online.
You do not need to explain everything in your first message — a sentence or two about what you are looking for is enough to get started.
2. Optional: a brief clarifying call
If you are uncertain whether sessions are right for you, or simply want to ask a few questions before committing, you are welcome to request a short, free clarifying call. This is not a requirement — many people prefer to begin directly with a first session. The option is there if it helps.
3. First session
The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We will talk through your situation, what has brought you here, and what you are hoping to get from the process. I will also explain my approach and how I work, so we can establish a clear and meaningful starting point together.
4. A shared plan
Towards the end of the first session, we will agree on a plan — which themes to focus on, how frequently to meet, and how many sessions to begin with. I often recommend starting with five sessions, as a clear effect is frequently visible within that timeframe. We will review progress together and adjust as we go.
5. The work
Sessions are a collaboration. You bring your experience, your thoughts and feelings, and your knowledge of your own life. I bring psychological expertise, methods, and support for understanding and changing the patterns that are maintaining your difficulties.
Between sessions, there may be brief exercises or reflections if that feels useful to you. If you prefer sessions to be a space for conversation and reflection without tasks between them, the process is adapted accordingly.
6. Ending well
As sessions draw to a close, we will review what has changed, what you are taking with you, and how best to maintain your progress. Where relevant, we will put together a plan for consolidating what you have worked on — and there is always the option of a follow-up session later if that feels useful.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a referral to work with you?
No. You can get in touch directly — no referral from a doctor or oncologist is needed.
Do you work with people who are still in active treatment?
Yes. Psychological support can be helpful at any stage — during treatment, shortly after it ends, or many years later. If you are currently in active treatment, it is worth mentioning this when you get in touch so that sessions can be adapted accordingly.
How many sessions will I need?
This varies from person to person. I often recommend starting with five sessions, as a meaningful effect is frequently visible within that timeframe. After five sessions we will review together and decide whether to continue, adjust focus, or wrap up. A typical process involves 10–12 sessions in total, though some people find that a shorter or longer engagement makes more sense for them.
Is online therapy as effective as in-person therapy?
Research consistently shows that online therapy is as effective as in-person therapy for anxiety-related difficulties, including fear of cancer recurrence. Many people also find that working from a familiar environment is more comfortable — and that online sessions fit more easily into everyday life.
What if I am not sure whether sessions are right for me?
You are welcome to request a short, free clarifying call before committing to anything. There is no obligation — it is simply an opportunity to talk, ask questions, and find out whether working together feels like a good fit. You can also just send a brief message and we can go from there.
About me
I am a Clinical Psychologist with a PhD in Psycho-Oncology and Health Psychology. My research and clinical work has focused specifically on fear of cancer recurrence, and I have developed manual-based FCR treatments at Aarhus University and Aarhus University Hospital, in collaboration with international partners.
My approach is evidence-based and grounded in the understanding that fear after cancer is a natural response — not a disorder to be fixed, but an experience to be understood and worked with. I work with cancer survivors and their loved ones, online, from wherever they are in the world. Read more here.
Not ready for individual sessions yet?
That is completely understandable. There are other ways to get started at your own pace.
