Furthermore, there are psychotherapeutic family conversations, parent conversations, and group treatments. You collaborate and plan interventions together with colleagues to offer our patients the best possible care.

The work as a therapist is challenging, stimulating, varied, and gives you the opportunity to work creatively with children and young people in complex cases. The work includes actively working to develop the operations and implement new knowledge and methods.

We are a small team that works transprofessionally in close collaboration. We value our work environment highly and strive to maintain an open dialogue climate, to be flexible, and to support and relieve each other as needed. We offer good opportunities for development and further education based on interests in line with the needs of the operations and patients. Of course, you will be offered a tailored introduction, collegial support, and professional supervision.

The working hours are scheduled during the day, Monday to Friday.
