Maija Aurea Haaranen

I am a experienced relationship and mental wellbeing professional, shaped by decades of diverse work experience, continuous education, and life’s personal challenges. I am a certified Solution-Focused Brief Therapist (including psychotherapeutic competencies), experienced individual and change coach, certified coach and mentor, NLP Trainer & Coach, certified hypnotherapist and a relationship counselor. I continuously deepen my skills in crisis and trauma therapy. I volunteer as a support person and group facilitator for NUT ry, as a separation support person for ETKL ry, and at the Mieli Mobile Crisis Center. My background also includes a Master’s degree in Economics (M.Sc.), vocational teacher qualification, digital pedagogy expertise, and certified team leadership skills. Brief therapy is a low-threshold, confidential service that does not require a referral. The number of sessions is defined by the client. The focus is on discovering your inner strengths and building forward-looking solutions. Therapy is bound by ethical standards and full confidentiality – no client data is entered into any databases. Sessions are available either online (remote therapy from anywhere in Finland or abroad) or in person in the Jyväskylä area. Services are also available in English. I specialize in narcissistic abuse and have international expertise certification as a Narcissistic Abuse Trauma Consultant (NATC). I have supported dozens of clients who are survivors of narcissistic abuse. My client satisfaction score is a perfect 10 (NPS). You can read real client testimonials on my website. I hold a professional self-monitoring plan and certification from the Finnish Association of Brief Therapists. I combine deep expertise with practical tools and warm, grounded presence. My clients say they gain clarity, strength, and concrete tools to navigate their challenges. Therapy helps them regain control, strengthen self-awareness, and build lasting well-being.
