Professional background

Clinical Training & Continued Education

I combine academic training, advanced clinical education, and practical therapeutic experience. My aim is to provide effective, individualized therapy that is tailored to your needs.

Clinical Expertise

I hold an MSc in Psychology, with additional academic specialization in Social Psychology and Neurocognitive Science. Since graduating, I have continued to expand my clinical expertise through advanced postgraduate training in evidence-based psychotherapy, with a particular focus on trauma treatment, experiential therapies, and integrative psychotherapy.

I am registered with the Dutch Institute of Psychologists (NIP) as a Psychologist NIP and am a member of both the VEN (EMDR Association Netherlands) and the VGCt (Dutch Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Therapies). These professional affiliations reflect my commitment to evidence-based practice, ongoing professional development, and maintaining high standards of psychological care.

While qualifications and expertise are important, effective therapy is ultimately built on a strong therapeutic relationship. My aim is to combine clinical knowledge with warmth, genuine collaboration, and an individualized approach tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Integrative, trauma-informed, individualized

My approach is shaped not only by formal training, but also by years of clinical experience working with people from diverse backgrounds and life circumstances. Rather than relying on a single model, I draw from different evidence-based approaches and tailor treatment to the individual.

Continued professional development remains an important part of my work, helping me refine existing skills, deepen my understanding, and stay up to date with developments in the field. I view continued professional development as an essential part of providing thoughtful, up-to-date, and effective psychological care.
