I am a psychologist and authorized psychotherapist with long experience as a clinician in psychosocial oncology. My research has focused on the psychosocial consequences of being affected by cancer, i.e. ways of dealing with the strain and how patients establish a new everyday-life after treatment. Another focus concerns the function of the social worker in oncological health care. The research is primarily qualitative and the connection to clinical reality is emphasized.
