About me
Andrew Sajjadi-Bergqvist
Licensed Psychotherapist
As a licensed psychotherapist, I offer psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families, as well as tailored services for organizations looking to strengthen and develop their staff and leadership.

By combining my competencies, I can offer an approach that meets your specific needs and goals. Whether you’re seeking personal growth, want to improve your relationships, or strengthen your organization’s performance, my aim is to create a safe and supportive environment for positive change.
My extensive experience in psychiatry, social services, and municipal operations has given me deep insight into the various challenges of both private life and the workplace. I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, parents, couples, and families, as well as led change processes as a manager and leader in organizations.
For individuals, couples, and families: Together, we explore your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors to promote personal growth and improve your well-being. My approach is empathetic, professional, and tailored to your unique needs.
For organizations: I offer personnel development, team building, and leadership coaching. My goal is to help your organization reach its full potential by strengthening communication, collaboration, and individual performance.
On a personal note, I am a dedicated father and husband who believes in the importance of life balance. My passion for personal development extends beyond my professional life – I’m an enthusiastic tennis player, basketball fan, and am looking forward to participating in the Gothenburg Half Marathon for the third time in 2025.

Affectphobia Psychotherapy (APT):
APT is a therapeutic method aimed at identifying and treating emotional fears or phobias that contribute to mental distress. This treatment approach has shown strong scientific support in treating conditions such as unipolar depression, anxiety disorders, somatoform disorders, and personality disorders.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT):
CBT is highly effective for treating a broad spectrum of mental disorders. There is robust scientific support for the use of CBT, especially in the treatment of anxiety disorders, unipolar depression, somatoform disorders, eating disorders, and the management of anger and stress.
Couples Therapy:
Couples Therapy is an effective treatment method aimed at improving relationships between couples. There is robust scientific support for the use of Couples Therapy, especially in areas such as communication, conflict resolution, romantic relationship enhancement, and crisis management within relationships. Couple’s therapy have proven particularly effective in strengthening emotional bonds and improving couple dynamics.
Family Therapy:
Family Therapy is an effective treatment method aimed at improving relationships and dynamics within families. There is robust scientific support for the use of family therapy, especially in areas such as improving communication, managing conflicts, and addressing mental health issues within the family. Family Therapy has proven to be particularly effective in strengthening emotional bonds among family members and effectively managing interpersonal conflicts. This form of therapy is also beneficial in treating adolescents with behavioral issues where the engagement of the entire family can lead to better treatment outcomes
Parent support conversations:
Parent support conversations are a valuable intervention aimed at guiding and supporting parents in their parenting role. There is scientific evidence that parent support interventions can improve family communication, strengthen parent-child relationships, and help parents manage everyday challenges. Parent support conversations can be particularly effective in increasing parents’ knowledge about their child’s needs, developing stress management strategies, and promoting positive family dynamics. This form of support can be tailored to the family’s specific circumstances and needs, making it a flexible and powerful tool for strengthening families

As a licensed psychotherapist, I have undergone rigorous training to ensure the delivery of professional and evidence-based psychotherapy. This accreditation guarantees compliance with the stringent standards set by the National Board of Health and Welfare, validating the knowledge and skills required to conduct psychotherapy.
Being a member of Akademikerförbundet SSR ensures a commitment to uphold patient rights and confidentiality within therapy sessions, reinforced by meeting the criteria for patient insurance.

Using CTNotes, these records capture insights from your visits, treatment goals, and progress, ensuring continuity and quality in the therapeutic process.

Your privacy is paramount. Every insight shared in therapy is treated with utmost confidentiality, shielded by legal provisions on data protection. Your trust is sacred, and no information shared in therapy will be disclosed to any external party without your explicit consent, except as mandated by law.
