About Eva
A visionary in interpersonal neurobiology and communication
For more than 30 years Eva Berlander has taught therapists, business leaders, couples and individuals. She weaves humour, hope and awareness into her sessions and lectures.
Who is Eva Berlander?
Eva's work revolves around the critical connections between our brain, our consciousness and our relationships. It rests on scientifically grounded strategies that help people build stronger and more loving relationships, weaving together interpersonal neurobiology, communication, leadership and resilience.
Two ideas recur in her teaching. The receiver's place – the notion that communication is decided by how it lands, not only by how it is said. And MWE, the many "I"s held within one "we", a reminder that closeness never requires us to erase ourselves.
Her ability to inspire and teach reaches far beyond the clinic. The material is designed to strengthen individuals, couples and groups in their search for better understanding, deeper connection and lasting success.
In private life Eva has been married to Sven since 1993, and together they have two grown-up sons. At the institute she is joined by her faithful therapy dog Zoe, whose presence contributes to the safe and warm atmosphere that characterises the work.
Background
Competence and method
Licensed mental trainer
Mental training provides concrete methods for focus, recovery and for consciously directing attention towards what works.
Interpersonal neurobiology
IPNB explains how the brain moves towards integration – and why secure relationships change both health and performance.
Mindfulness
The ability to stay present with what arises in us, instead of immediately trying to get rid of it, is the foundation of resilience.
Our vision is to create a better world – one individual, one couple and one group at a time.

Purpose
Our relationships determine our quality of life
See yourself with warmth
Meeting yourself and others with curiosity rather than judgement is the doorway to change.
Aim your energy well
Learn to activate the brain and focus on what you can actually influence.
Meet conflict with curiosity
Conflicts become opportunities when the perspective shifts to: "How exciting!"
När svårigheter stärker oss
Livets svårigheter kan också ge oss möjlighet att växa. När vi möter det som känns svårt med nyfikenhet, förståelse och omtanke om oss själva utvecklar vi vår emotionella motståndskraft. Inte för att livet blir enklare, utan för att vi blir tryggare i vår förmåga att möta det. Och det fina är att vi kan träna på det!
Strengthen what works
We work by magnifying what is good, not only by correcting what is broken.
