Parenthood doesn’t come with a manual. I therefore assist parents in dealing with a variety of challenges their children might face.

I provide psychotherapy for Depression, Identity issues, Behavioural Difficulties, Anxiety disorders, Trauma, Scholastic pressure, Eating disorders, Grief, Loss and emotional distress.

Types of Therapy
I provide face-to-face, online and forest psychotherapy so that you can decide what works best for you
Face-To-Face Therapy (Amsterdam)
I look forward to welcome you to my practice in the heart of central Amsterdam. A beautiful, calm, serene and safe space where you can enjoy a cup of coffee or tea while we collaboratively work together towards the goals you set out at the start of the therapeutic process. In my approach to therapy, confidentiality, unconditional positive regard and trust are the pillars of the therapeutic relationship.
Online Psychotherapy
I bring therapy to you, wherever you are!
With online therapy there are no awkward waiting rooms, no traffic and no hassle. Sessions take place over a secure video chat service called Zoom (similar to Skype). My online sessions are face-to-face in that we can see and hear one another as we talk.
Forest Therapy
Also known as ‘walk-and-talk’ therapy takes psychotherapy outdoors. We have beautiful parks in and around Amsterdam (Westerpark, Vondelpark, Oosterpark, Amsterdamse Bos). This approach infuses the benefits of nature and exercise into your therapy session. You may prefer to move or walk as opposed to sitting across from your therapist in an office or looking through a screen. Physical movement encourages psychological movement and the endorphins that exercise produces has a known positive impact on your mood and anxiety levels. Clients tend to be more energized at the end of a forest therapy session
