Fridrik provides assessments and psychotherapy for individuals, families, and groups at Chuq’eya Qenq’a, Birch Tree House.
 
For Fridrik, coming to the Kenaitze Indian Tribe felt like coming home. The more he learned about the Tribe and its history, as well as the history of the Alaska Native people, the more he knew he had found a place to be of service.
 
Fridrik has earned his master’s degree in Social Work and is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. He first became fascinated with the mind-body connection when he studied massage therapy in Iceland. He then pursued his undergraduate degree in philosophy with a psychology minor before completing his master’s degree. 
 
Fridrik has had the opportunity to live in four countries and to travel to many others. He counts finding and marrying the love of his life and adopting his son among his greatest accomplishments. He is grateful to be able to live in this beautiful and sacred part of the world and to serve the Tribe and un’ina, “those who come to us.” 
 
When he’s not serving un’ina, Fridrik loves spending time with his family, hiking, kayaking, camping, fishing, traveling, and having fun. He enjoys learning, listening to music, and taking time for spiritual practice.
