Psychotherapist for a residential facility

We are seeking a psychotherapist – who has experience with psychiatric diagnoses

Do you want to help make a difference for young people and adults with mental and social challenges – in a professionally strong, present, and engaged environment?

At Løvegård ApS we are seeking a new colleague for a full-time position.

The position gives you the opportunity to bring your psychotherapeutic expertise into work with our 8 residents aged 20–45, while also participating in the daily pedagogical practice at the residential facility.

Who are we?

Løvegård is a psychotherapeutic and social-pedagogical temporary housing facility (§107) for youths and adults with mental and social challenges. We work from an affirming and holistic view of humanity, where relationships, emotional life, the body and social interaction are central elements in the effort. We have a solid professional foundation based on a psychotherapeutic approach and place emphasis on reflection, quality, and accountability in the work.

The residents at Løvegård are not considered therapeutic in the traditional sense, as they have extensive mental health challenges. However, they retain the ability to reflect and to some extent mentalize, which provides a basis for a greater understanding of their own situation, making it professionally relevant to apply a psychotherapeutic approach as part of the overall pedagogical effort.

With the resident at the center, we collaborate with municipalities on targeted programs (§83 and §85) that strengthen quality of life, coping, and development. With us you will encounter a house characterized by openness, warmth, and a daily life with room for both professional depth and relational work.

• A workplace with time for each resident and the opportunity to follow their development closely
• A daily life with meaning, professional challenges and collegial sparring
• Opportunity to contribute to the professional development of the offering
• Supervision and professional reflection
• A workplace with influence and room for professional perspectives

You thrive with responsibility, can work independently and at the same time naturally engage in professional discussions and collaborate with colleagues. You are prepared to be practical and present in the tasks that come with daily life at a residential facility.
