Licensed Psychologist, PSYCHOLOOG NIP® - Compassionate and Inclusive Therapy

How Do I Work?

In my practice, I take a humanistic approach, which means I see you as a whole person—not just a diagnosis or a list of symptoms. You are complex and may carry many different, even conflicting parts of yourself, and that’s completely okay. Unlike systems that often focus on what’s “wrong,” I aim to create a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your experiences without judgment.

My work is attachment-based and trauma-informed, with a focus on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for individuals. This approach is especially helpful for addressing trauma, attachment wounds, anxiety, and depression. While EFT is a central framework in my practice, I believe in an integrative method, blending various evidence-based techniques that are tailored to fit your unique needs.

Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your struggles, work through shame, and cultivate self-compassion, while also highlighting your strengths and potential for growth. In our intake session, we’ll talk through your goals and desires, and I’ll create a personalized treatment plan tailored to you. This plan is flexible and can be adjusted whenever you wish, as your feedback is always welcome.

About me

Originally from Germany, I've spent the past eight years living in various countries, with over five years in the Netherlands. My experiences living abroad, coupled with growing up with deaf parents and being part of the queer community, have sensitized me to discrimination of minority groups and cultural adaptation challenges. I'm deeply committed to helping you navigate mental health struggles such as anxiety, depression or trauma. Additionally, my passion exploring sexuality and relationships drives me to empower clients to gain confidence, learn about their desires and build healthy connections.

Drawing from personal experience with cross-cultural relationships and ethical non-monogamy, I prioritize open communication and mutual understanding in therapy sessions. In our sessions, you can expect a non-judgmental space to freely discuss mental health struggles, relationships, sexuality, identity crisis, cultural differences, and personal growth. Together, we'll work towards building stronger connections, embracing diversity, and rediscovering joy in your life.
