I’m an English-speaking psychologist / therapist / counsellor. I offer counselling, therapy and coaching in Amsterdam. My practice is at the Cruquiusweg in Amsterdam Oost, Zeeburg.
I might not be a native speaker, but my English is more than sufficient enough to do counseling in English. I’m open to help expats, international students and whoever is in need of mental help.
Patients describe me as understanding, encouraging and solution-focused. I might confront you, but never without being considerate and supportive. I believe that insight is necessary for change, so usually I start with helping people to understand why they do the things they do and why it’s so difficult to change unhelpful habits (usually because they’re also beneficial).
I’m curious, which helps me to stay in tune with new developments in my profession, I love to learn! I’m also ‘only human’ with my own talents ànd flaws, which I use in my therapy as well.
Last but not least; I am associated with (as far as I know) all health insurance companies, so normally people get coverage for their counselling. Of course you’re also welcome to pay for it yourself, in that case the rate is 123,50 euros per session of 45 minutes. I request 36 hours’ notice for cancellations. Cancellations made prior to this window are rescheduled with no penalty. Cancellations made within 36 hours’ notice incur a 65,00 euro late-cancellation fee. Financially, other amounts/arrangements may apply if payment is made via the employer or other third parties.
