Crazy about science: Pia Callesen on Calm in the head

Calm in the head — a talk with psychologist Pia CallesYou may know it — the widespread struggle with brooding and worrying? Then come and listen to psychologist, PhD and author Pia Callesen, as she tells us, based on her latest book 'Calm in the Head', about what we can do to take back control when our thoughts run away.

ExperienceBased on research, clinical experiences and concrete examples from metacognitive therapy, Pia Callesen talks about how we can reduce our thoughts and give ourselves more mental peace in a world characterized by high pace and demands.

Along the way, she presents the 'Meta Model', which can help you break down inappropriate thought habits and action patterns and instead help build good life strategies.

The lecture is aimed at anyone with an interest in psychology and mental well-being — whether you experience thoughts on your own body or are simply curious about the latest knowledge on how to take better care of our mental health.

MødPia Callesen is a psychologist and certified and licensed specialist in psychotherapy with further training in cognitive and metacognitive psychology. She runs her own nationwide clinic and psychology practice; CEKTOS — Center for Cognitive and Metacognitive Therapy.
