“Making implicit felt meaning explicit”

John Welwood

My Approach

In all my offerings, I embody a gentle, collaborative, and compassionate approach. As an ally on your journey of self-discovery, I am profoundly curious about every aspect of your being. While my approach is rooted in somatic foundations, it does not disregard the cognitive process of meaning-making. I invite you to embrace mindful observation as a replacement for cognitive reflection. Drawing from a diverse range of approaches such as Hakomi, knowledge about our autonomic nervous system, and extensive field experience with psychedelic facilitation, I weave together a rich tapestry to support your personal growth and transformation.

Odin has supported me with coaching sessions for 2 months after I left my 23-year employment, decidedly and for good.
He has been my guide, while I was aiming for orientation and stability within the unfamiliar circumstance of having to solely build on my long-time existing freelance structure.
Instantly, Odin in a very gentle way is able to build trust. His voice and pacing are remarkable.
Skilled, warm and very flexible, he took me to insights and inner places not visited before. Timing and refined questioning - and dang - I got what I needed to see to move on.
I value him as someone profoundly caring and experienced, working in a broad way, in contemporary fields of therapy and personal growth.

My training

Hakomi® Institute of Mallorca – Somatic Psychotherapy - Advanced training - Currently undergoing training

Hakomi is a gentle yet powerful experiential psychotherapy that uses mindfulness and somatic interventions to support healing and growth. The method builds around a safe and attuned therapeutic relationship. Within this relationship, we engage in a shared exploration of the client’s inner world, using techniques unique to Hakomi that incorporate mindfulness and the body. The therapist functions as a compassionate guide, helping clients explore the effect of their past experiences on their present concerns.

Hakomi® Institute of Mallorca – Somatic Psychotherapy - one-year Foundational Training

The method is state-of-the-art, combining advances in neuroscience with the perennial wisdom of Buddhism and Taoism’s Eastern traditions. Mindfulness is at the heart of everything in Hakomi.  Although sessions include talking, the experiential approach deepens therapy beyond insight. It helps clients access the “blueprints” that shape their present-day experiences.
