With his professional expertise in divorce and post-breakup family dynamics, Peter has been actively involved in numerous family disputes and family mediations. He has conducted several courses and trainings for a variety of clients, including legal officers at the Agency of Family Law (Familieretshuset), social workers, and family consultants. He continues to teach and guide legal officers and lawyers in the family field and the family law system to this day.

Helle-Mie is an experienced psychotherapist with in-depth knowledge of high-conflict cases and different forms of emotional abuse.
Our clients experienced feeling understood and embraced with their own viewpoints based on where they stand mentally, and that provides an exceptionally solid foundation for advising when both parties feel seen, acknowledged, and understood.
Helle-Mie has a comprehensive understanding of family dynamics, relational issues, mental abuse, and PTSD. She has extensive experience in family and conflict mediation alongside Peter Roed, where they have facilitated numerous custody, residence, and visitation agreements without the family court's involvement.
