Authorised psychologist in Fredensborg and North Zealand
I do not accept referrals from your GP. You can use your health insurance and “danmark” with me.
From our first meeting until you stand on your own two feet
First we clarify your difficulties and agree on goals for your treatment. Then we look at what has led to your situation, and how your thoughts and actions play a part.
We work on challenging your assumptions and on changing unhelpful patterns of thinking and acting, so you grow stronger in yourself, and your difficulties weigh less and, over time, lose their grip.

About psychologist Therese Ejerskov
Welcome, my name is Therese Ejerskov. I graduated as a psychologist from the University of Copenhagen in 2007 and am authorised by the Danish Supervisory Board of Psychological Practice (Psykolognævnet). You can see my authorisation in the Danish Patient Safety Authority’s register of authorised health professionals.
I am a specialist in psychotherapy with adults and have specialised in cognitive therapy and in treating anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, stress and low self-esteem.
I began my working life at a large privately owned cognitive psychology centre in Copenhagen, where I stayed for six years. I then worked for ten years in psychiatry in Frederiksberg before deciding to start my own practice.
What to expect in your first session
You do not need to prepare. Many people arrive feeling that everything is tangled together and not knowing where to begin. That is perfectly fine. I ask questions, and you tell me what you want to. The rest can wait.
I listen for what weighs on you most right now and how it affects your everyday life. At your own pace we go deeper into the conversation, and based on what I hear, I suggest how, and with which tools, we will work on it over the next sessions.
You leave the first session with a sense of what is going on and what the next step is. That is often the first relief. We take it one session at a time, pinning down goals and tools that you can use for the rest of your life to create lasting change.
Why cognitive therapy?
Internationally, cognitive therapy is now the most widely used and recognised evidence-based form of therapy.
Over my 19 years as a psychologist I have worked with several therapeutic approaches, and each has its strengths. But experience from my own practice and the findings of research show that cognitive therapy and the branches developed from it clearly have the strongest effect on the mental disorders and difficulties I work with every day.
That is why I have chosen to specialise in cognitive therapy, and to train in and work with the branches that give the best results in my therapeutic work.
