Who We Are

We believe in the transformative power of psychotherapy, art and philosophy to bring meaning and wellness to our clients.

Why Choose Us

We repeat what we do not repair. You are not broken, you are breaking through. Life’s trials and tribulations test us at the best of times, but when issues repeat and hurt grow it is time to examine patterns.

To unpick mistakes and dilemmas in order to start problem-solving. To unlearn the unhelpful and adopt more positive worldviews. To understand context and meaning behind actions, at least a level deeper.
To think more intelligently about issues and limitations. To be able, not to avoid darkness, but to sit in darkness knowing that light will come again soon.
To be able to interpret the past, the present, in a different light giving off a kinder, supler narrative. To drink the proverbial lemonade dancing in the proverbial rain.

“These guys helped me navigate a messy divorce and helped me enormously adapting to scary levels of change. Their counselling helped me make sense of what was going on in my life and to make better decisions. Identifying problematic areas of my life, difficult histories and triggering contexts also really helped me quickly turn my life around.”

“I tried many therapists with mixed results until a friend recommended O&S. I immediately sensed that I was both understood empathically but also challenged gently by the therapist. I loved how therapy evolved as the therapist and I adopted different tools and perspectives on what was going wrong. I now find myself calmer and feeling more resilient, less drama, and without having to do conscious effort. Something fundamentally good has something fundamentally good has shifted in me.”

“I did not know much what to expect from a therapy and now feel lucky it is O&S I started with. My main regret now is probably not having done therapy a long time ago. I have gained in understanding and empathy. I now have concrete steps I can follow if I ever feel challenged mentally, and that boost in confidence has also been noticeable. I am more assertive and connecting, I do not withdraw or lash out as much as I used to. I feel more patient and content.”
