Integrating Awareness was established in Brisbane 1992, so I have now been in private practice in Brisbane for about 25 years.
Currently, and for the last eight years my clinic has been located in the quiet inner South-West Brisbane suburb of Sherwood, in the Indooroopilly-Oxley corridor.

Testimonials
“I had lost my focus and needed help. Lars stayed present with me and helped me become grounded.
Lars offers a wide range of modalities rather than being locked into only one. Lars is flexible in his approach and works with the client’s goal in mind.”
Leanne, 55 - Student, Brisbane
“I started having counselling with Lars because I had challenges with the central relationship in my life. I wasn’t sure if I should stay. I wanted an answer to my problem but realised that I had not been taking responsibility for my own choices within the relationship. Underlying these issues was my own sense of hopelessness – that I had somehow given up on my life. I needed to remember how to practice autonomy.
Lars again and again gently challenged me to look further within myself for the resources to change the situation rather than try to work out how I had got to this place in my life. He provided support and a framework for me to address the underlying issues with more confidence. I always felt Lars was standing with me even when he was asking me to reflect on difficult areas of my life.
Now I am committed to being in the relationship and to keep working with honesty on expressing my needs to my partner. I have reaffirmed the spiritual and creative side of myself and given them more space in my life. My kids are now ‘fighting’ to spend time with me rather than tiptoeing around me. There is still a long way to go for me but I know I can always go back to see Lars confident that I will benefit from the work.
Lars can help you find a way to the root of what’s bothering you – he will stand beside you as you explore difficulties with empathy and sometimes humour. I would recommend him to anyone particularly in relation to relationship challenges and spirituality.”

“My fiancé and I saw Lars for relationship/pre-marriage counselling. Lars is a fantastic counsellor. He communicates well and his longer session times really helped us to get to discuss the real issues. Lars has some great tools and tips for relationships that we have used to date.
I would highly recommend Lars to couples and individuals needing some support in their relationships/lives. Thank you Lars!”
