I came from Denmark to California for my own therapy and healing. After working for 20+ years as an educator and creating a family, I decided to pursue the road to become a therapist. I've worked with a diverse range of people, families, ages and challenges in humanistic, person centered, emotion focused schools, in psychodynamic community clinic, in substance use recovery center running groups and in a treatment center for clients suffering from eating disorders and co-existing conditions. Working in this field continues to give me an in depth understanding of the human soul and heart that I strive to use to help others heal.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Sunnyvale, CA

Searching for therapists in Sunnyvale starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with concerns similar to yours. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their style, what sessions may focus on, and which types of care they provide.

Sunnyvale has a smaller local market than nearby San Jose or San Francisco, so virtual therapy can help expand your options while still keeping care accessible from home. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before you book. Reading profiles closely can help you see how each therapist works, how they communicate, and whether their availability fits your schedule.

Therapy in Sunnyvale can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready. You can browse therapists in Sunnyvale, review bios, and choose someone who matches your needs, plan, and preferences.
