I am a licensed psychologist with a focus on neurofeedback, psychological work and sport psychology perspectives, with an emphasis on self-regulation, presence and healthy development. In my work, I integrate relationship, brain and psychological processes within a safe and respectful working alliance.
I have worked with neurofeedback and psychological practice since 2013, meeting people in a wide range of life situations, with a focus on mental health, self-regulation and personal development. My work is both clinical and research-adjacent, and I am engaged in method development and evaluation of neurofeedback within Swedish primary care.
In parallel, I have extensive experience in sport psychology, working with both elite athletes and recreational athletes on topics such as focus, recovery, motivation and mental sustainability.
I have an academic background in psychology and sport psychology from the University of Gothenburg and Halmstad University, and I have published scientific work in the field of biofeedback and sports injuries.
In my practice I integrate these perspectives in a relational and process-oriented approach, where technology, conversation and human connection work together rather than compete.
I primarily work with individuals who want to develop their mental health toward greater self-regulation, presence and inner stability.
You are welcome to contact me and read more about my background in neurofeedback and sport psychology.
Healthy habits can be an expression of both self-care and the desire to grow.
Sportfeedback’s development and direction
Sportfeedback was founded in 2009 by Arne Edvardsson as a sole proprietorship with an initial focus on sport psychology contexts and lectures.
Over time, the practice has developed toward an increasingly clear focus on psychological work with neurofeedback as support for self-regulation, recovery and mental health, integrated with relational and process-oriented conversations.
Today, Sportfeedback is run on a small scale as an independent practice focused on neurofeedback and psychological work with sport psychology perspectives, where the therapeutic relationship and the individual’s experience are central.
Clinic
The practice is based in Gothenburg, near Slottsskogsvallen.
Sessions take place in a private, dedicated part of my home that is specifically arranged for conversations and neurofeedback.
Address: Blåvalsgatan 3A, Gothenburg
Network
- Participation in a primary-care research group focusing on mental health and sleep
- Participation in a national working group (NAG) for sleep health
- Halmstad University: collaboration on psychological perspectives on sports injuries
- Swedish network for adapted physical activity (SNAFA): digital administration
- Swedish Association of Sport Psychology (SIPF): former board member, currently an advisory contact
I am primarily employed within Västra Götaland Region, where I work clinically and with development and research-adjacent assignments. Sportfeedback is run in a limited capacity alongside this and is organizationally independent.
Who is this for?
My starting point is that psychological change emerges within a warm, respectful and trusting relationship, where the individual is given the opportunity to be present in the here and now with safety and awareness. I work to help people develop a kinder and more compassionate stance toward themselves, as a foundation for both growth and recovery.
At the same time, my work is grounded in the brain and the nervous system. Through methods such as neurofeedback, it is possible to calm the mind, strengthen focus and develop the capacity for self-regulation, for example through improved sleep and stress regulation.
I work with individuals who want to develop their mental health toward greater self-regulation, presence and inner warmth, and to create the conditions needed to function well, feel well and live their lives in a more sustainable and compassionate way.
Many who seek my services are people who are engaged, responsible and active in their lives, for example entrepreneurs, leaders, creative professionals or athletes. What they often share is a wish to take better care of themselves, to understand their own patterns, and to develop a more compassionate and stable relationship with themselves.
My work is particularly suitable for those who are interested in:
- strengthening their capacity for self-regulation and recovery
- improving sleep, stress management and mental clarity
- developing a more loving and accepting relationship with themselves
Availability
Sportfeedback is a small private practice that I run alongside my primary professional commitments. I see a limited number of clients at a time, mainly in the evenings and on weekends, as time allows. The work is conducted at a calm pace and with a low caseload in order to give each process sufficient space and quality.
For this reason, inquiries are handled selectively and begin with an initial intake step, where we jointly assess whether this way of working is appropriate.
Transparency, ethics and boundaries
I place great importance on clearly separating my different professional roles and responsibilities. The private practice is therefore conducted entirely independently from my work in the public sector as well as from my research and innovation activities, both organizationally and in practice.
Contact
If you are curious whether my way of working could be relevant for you, you are welcome to send a short inquiry via the contact page. I will get back to you if I have availability and if it seems like a good fit.
Scope and responsibility
The practice is health-promoting and development-oriented, not a psychiatric treatment service. If there is a need for specialized psychiatric care or in cases of acute mental distress, it is important to seek support within the healthcare system, where appropriate help is available.
