Therapy That Helps You Move Forward
Therapy for adults struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, emotional overwhelm, or longstanding psychological patterns. Sessions are available online or in my practice in Amsterdam. Together, we work towards lasting change through an evidence-based, integrative approach tailored to your individual needs.
A psychologist who has walked the path himself
I am a psychologist working with adults who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in longstanding patterns, or disconnected from themselves and the life they want to live.
Many of the people I work with struggle with the effects of trauma, anxiety, chronic self-criticism, difficulties with self-worth, emotional regulation, or relationship patterns that keep repeating.
Alongside my clinical training, my work is informed by personal experience with anxiety, trauma, and struggles with self-worth. This gives me not only professional knowledge, but also a personal appreciation of how deeply these experiences can affect people's lives.
My approach is warm, direct, collaborative, and focused on meaningful, lasting psychological change.
Individualized & Goal-Oriented Therapy
Therapy is most effective when it is tailored to who you are and what you need. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach, I draw from a range of evidence-based therapeutic methods and adapt treatment to your goals, difficulties, and personal circumstances.
I work with a range of psychological difficulties, including:
How I Work
Therapy with me is warm, direct, and practical. Together, we explore the patterns that keep you stuck, process difficult emotions, and build a life that feels more aligned with who you truly are.
Safe and non-judgmental
A space where you can speak openly, without fear of judgment or pressure to perform.
Evidence-based and practical
Grounded in proven therapeutic methods, applied in a way that makes sense for your life.
Focused on lasting change
Not just symptom relief — working toward meaningful, sustainable psychological change.
Evidence-based approaches tailored to you
I draw from a range of proven therapeutic approaches to help clients address the underlying patterns that contribute to emotional suffering, develop greater psychological flexibility, and create meaningful, lasting change. Select a treatment approach below to learn more.
CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and behavioural patterns that contribute to emotional distress. Together, we explore more balanced and helpful ways of thinking and responding to life's challenges, leading to lasting improvements in mood, anxiety, and resilience.
ACT
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people develop greater psychological flexibility by changing their relationship with difficult thoughts and emotions rather than struggling against them. By connecting with what truly matters and taking meaningful action, people can build a rich and fulfilling life.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR) is one of the most evidence-based treatments for trauma and PTSD. It helps the brain process distressing memories that continue to influence the present. EMDR can also be used to target anxiety-provoking future scenarios ("flashforwards"), reducing fear and helping people respond with greater confidence and flexibility.
Schema Therapy
Schema Therapy helps identify and change deep-rooted patterns, beliefs, and coping styles that often develop early in life and continue to influence daily functioning. Using experiential techniques, we work not only toward greater insight, but also toward lasting emotional change.
Somatic
Stress, trauma, and emotions often have a significant impact on the body. Tension, restlessness, avoidance, and automatic stress responses can become deeply embedded, even when someone rationally understands what is happening. Somatic interventions help identify these patterns and support the restoration of safety, emotional regulation, and resilience on the level of the nervous system.

A space that is safe, thoughtful, and collaborative
Therapy is not about "fixing" who you are. Often, it involves understanding the patterns that developed in response to difficult life experiences — and gradually creating more freedom, flexibility, and self-trust in the present.
My role is to provide a space that is safe, thoughtful, collaborative, and focused on real psychological change.
