Psychotherapist Copenhagen

My name is Kerimé Abay (she/her) and I am the founder of Hue Therapy. For as long as I can remember, I have been drawn to understanding the relationship between thoughts, emotions and behaviours that exist within all of us. I held a special interest in how these manifest during childhood/adolescence and how they shape our development, attachment and the unique formation of the self. 

This curiosity led me to complete a Bachelor of Social Science, majoring in Youth Work. I specialised in working with young people, many of whom were from disadvantaged backgrounds and marginalised communities. I then spent six years working for both Government and Non-for-Profit Organisations where I provided forensic therapeutic intervention and case management. This work involved navigating the complexities of the social and judicial systems within Australia, whilst maintaining a person-centred and trauma informed approach. What I found most rewarding was counselling young people and their families to navigate relationship with themselves, others, their communities and the natural environment.

Inspired by this work experience, I completed a Masters Degree in Counselling, after which I took on a new role as a Family and Relationship Therapist. I’m a registered practitioner in both Australia and Denmark

I wholeheartedly believe helping people cultivate self-compassion and a greater connection to self is key to healing and maintaining healthy relationships.

The philosophy and values at the core of Hue Therapy reflect my personal and professional experience and guide my approach to connecting with and supporting individuals.
