  • I offer individual psychotherapy sessions that blend the latest research with the enduring wisdom of past generations. Rooted in evidence-based practices yet open to exploring the unexplained, my approach is tailored to your unique needs. As a psychedelic psychologist, I specialize in substance misuse, addiction, trauma psychotherapy, mood distress, and psychotherapy for anxiety, providing compassionate and informed care to support your growth and healing.

  • Psychedelic integration therapy helps individuals process and integrate their psychedelic experiences, whether they've been challenging, confusing, or deeply insightful. As an early pioneer in this field and experienced psychedelic therapist, I've played a key role in developing therapeutic methods for this approach. With extensive experience as a clinician, researcher, and educator in psychedelic support, I offer compassionate guidance to help you harness the insights of your psychedelic therapy journey for lasting personal growth.


  • Living between cultures shapes how we relate to family, success, and our own emotions, and much of that is hard to explain to someone who hasn't lived it. I speak Czech fluently, understand Slovak, and know the cultural backdrop many Central and Eastern European clients bring with them: family expectations, intergenerational history, and the pressure of building a life far from where you started. You can work in English, Czech, or a mix of both. Either way, you won't have to translate yourself.

  • I offer therapy for business owners, providing a space to navigate the challenges of leadership, decision-making, and work-life balance. As a business psychologist, I understand the unique pressures leaders face, from managing high-stakes responsibilities to fostering personal growth amid professional demands. With a compassionate and insightful approach to business therapy, I help you address stress, burnout, and interpersonal dynamics to support your well-being and enhance your leadership potential.

  • Expats, global nomads, third culture kids, and others, all develop strengths—cultural adaptability, a broad worldview, and cross-cultural fluency. Yet, the experience of growing up between cultures can also bring challenges, including a sense of rootlessness, identity struggles, and unresolved grief.

    As an expat psychologist with both personal and professional insight into this experience, I specialize in providing online therapy for expats and helping adults navigate the complexities of a highly mobile upbringing. Whether you're grappling with belonging, life transitions, or the emotional impact of cultural displacement, I offer expat therapy in a supportive space to explore these experiences. Together, we can work toward greater clarity, connection, and a deeper sense of presence—wherever you are in the world.

Testimonials

  • "Working with Ingmar was nothing short of life changing. When I first sought out a therapist to help integrate my ketamine work, I was at the beginning of a journey in a very different modality. Not only was I scared and navigating new waters, I was deeply depressed. My personal exploration with alternative medicines found ground and assurance while working with Ingmar. It was a very trying time : Spelunking my mind through dusty corners where my ancestors wandered. But by allowing myself to be open and ask questions like, “why the depression” I shifted out of a ‘something is wrong with me’ framework. It never occurred to me that there would be an end to therapy. That the work could come to a close after great effort. Not only did Ingmar present me with this reality but I evolved into a healed version of myself with a greater understanding of intergenerational trauma and of myself."

  • "I have worked with multiple therapists throughout my life, and Ingmar truly stands out in a special way. Yes he is very well-trained, wise, and insightful, but he also possesses qualities that, in my experience, are unparalleled. These include innate and palpable empathy, a warmth that made me feel safe and supported, and a remarkable ability to listen and truly hear me, even when I couldn’t hear myself. He instinctively created a nurturing space where I felt recognized and understood, and in this space he was able to guide me onto a path of deep healing for the first time in my therapeutic journey. With all of his qualities combined, what he creates is a solid framework for the process of transformation. I cannot recommend him highly enough!"
