About me

My name Is Marie Strandberg and I am of Swedish origin. I moved to Spain in the year 2000. Since then I lived on and off in Sweden and in Spain. I also lived in Argentina and in Scotland during a longer period due to studies.

I licensed as a psychologist in the year 2007 from the University Pontificia de Comillas in Madrid.

I am authorised to work as a psychologist in Sweden and in Spain. I can offer therapy in English, Swedish and Spanish.

My practice is in Nueva Andalucia, Marbella, where I offer psychological services both in clinical and organisational psychology. I can also provide therapy by video conference if that suits you better.

I work with evidence based treatment. This means that my therapy is anchored in the latest psychological research. My theoretical ground is in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy but I also work with therapies that evolved from CBT which are called the ”third” and the  ”fourth wave” CBT. These therapies focus more on acceptance and adapting a mindful approach to our inner experiences instead of trying to change them. I have a special interest in working with trauma. I have therefore choosen  to deepen my knowledge in this area with therapies like: EMDR ( Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), prolonged exposure, attachment focused therapy and embodiment approaches. 

The therapy of choice are always based on an individually assesment where we together make a treatment plan for your specific needs.

I have experience from working in psychiatry, primary care and private practice. I have a vast competence acquired from meeting people from different cultures and backgrounds with all sorts of psychological problems/diagnosis over the last 10 years.

Since 2012  I am also dedicated  time to become a specialist in clinical psychology.

 Please get in contact with me if you have any further question about me or my experience!

 Kind regards,

 Marie Strandberg
