Isolde Sundet, Ed.M, M.A, LMHC
What is your background?
I completed my clinical training at Columbia University in New York City and am a licensed mental health counselor in both New York and Texas.
I am a certified Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapist through The Institute for Emotion-Focused Therapy in Bern, Switzerland. EFT-C is an evidence based couples therapy modality that helps partners re-discover how to connect through facilitating awareness and healthy expression of the deeper, sometimes uncomfortable emotions we tend to hide.
Who do you work with?
I work with anyone who is interested in beginning therapy for the first time, or who is looking for a fresh start with someone new. I see both individuals and couples on a long-term and short-term basis, many of whom have different reasons for being in therapy with diverse goals. I have specialized training in couples therapy and treating out of control sexual behaviors, but work with many people around issues related to depression, anxiety, loss, career dissatisfaction, attachment style, and identity.
What kind of therapist are you?
I am informed by psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and attachment theories in my practice, and use EFT-C with all the couples I see. I take a direct but warm approach and utilize different techniques and strategies depending on what we’re working on. I work co-actively with all of my clients so that we’re always doing work that feels like it fits you.
What can I expect from therapy?
I meet weekly with most of my clients for 45 minutes. Together we’ll work towards uncovering what your goals and desires are and how you can live the life you want.
