Who are we?

All universities and most higher education institutions in the country have campus pastors attached to them. The student pastors are theologians and employed by the Danish Church. There are three of us in Frederiksberg: Dorte Thomsen, Charlotte Cappi Grunnet and Claus Oldenburg.

We have our own offices at CBS, UCPH, the Academy of Music and Copenhagen University College, and we are available for personal conversations and sparring with students. Everyone is welcome, regardless of whether you have a religious belief or not. Come and put your thoughts into words and talk about the things or considerations that are important to you and that you may not want to share with your friends or family. Sct. Thomas Church is the student church in Frederiksberg. We hold events and concerts here. 

The campus pastors are bound by absolute confidentiality.

We do not keep any records.

All inquiries are free and there is no waiting time.

Dorte Thomsen

I have experienced what it can do to a person to be seen, heard, and taken seriously.

It is my experience that it is in such encounters with others that we grow – I myself have grown by being accommodated with everything that is me. Even what I myself think is wrong and what I am ashamed of.

It will be my most important task as a student chaplain to meet you right where you are, with who you are – no matter what you are struggling with.

 

  • Priest in the Danish People's Church since 2003
  • Trained as a Gestalt psychotherapist from the Essens Institute and therapeutic counselor with Bent Falk.

Charlotte Cappi Grunnet

 Life can throw you in many directions. Even during your studies. My experience is that it is good to have a confidential space where you can talk about what is on your mind. It can ease the feeling of being alone to be able to put your feelings, thoughts and frustrations into words, and it can help you see what options there are.

When I was a student myself, I could have used a student chaplain as a conversation partner, but I thought they only talked about faith and God. It is therefore important for me to emphasize that it is you and what is happening in your life that is in focus.

  • Student and parish priest in Frederiksberg since 2009 in St. Thomas Church.
  • In addition, I have held a journalistic position, been a sailor's chaplain in Sri Lanka for two years, and worked at a book publishing house.
  • I have a 3-year education with Gestalt therapist and theologian Bent Falk in conversation and participate in continuing education in pastoral care.
