A Bit About Me
​Astrid's practice is evidence-based, professional, and confidential. Astrid designs personalised sessions using psychotherapy, CBT, counselling, and hypnotherapy. She empowers clients to reconnect with their inner strengths and move beyond illness or emotional struggles toward lasting health and purpose.
