Approach
I am an English speaking psychologist working in Amsterdam. I specialise in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).
CBT is a structured form of talking therapy, which focuses on what difficulties you are currently struggling with and what we can do to help you manage better. The CBT approach focus on 2 areas. Firstly, CBT helps you to understand and challenges your ‘cognitions’ which is your thought process, worries and thinking traps. Secondly, CBT provides you with ways to reclaim your life through more helpful, healthy and joyful behaviours.
EMDR helps people who hold unhelpful beliefs and memories that are impacting them in the present moment. This can vary in terms of unhelpful beliefs about themselves, the world around them or other people. The memories can relate to a significant traumatic event, multiple complex traumas, or clusters of ‘small t’ traumas. Small t traumas are stressful life events that are not life threatening, dangerous or violent, but they have had a big impact on us.
Services
Telephone Consultation
Before you start therapy, it is often helpful to have a consultation so that I can answer any questions or queries you have about therapy. It also allows us to see if we are a good match, and that you feel comfortable talking with me. This conversation usually lasts about 15 minutes, over the telephone.
15-30 mins | €0
Video Sessions
Most of the therapy sessions I offer take place online, via Google Meets or Microsoft Teams. Online therapy allows you to have therapy in your own environment and takes the hassle away from having to commute to a clinic.
50-60 mins | €95
Face-to-face
If you feel that you would like to meet in person for your sessions, this can be arranged with you. Face-to-face therapy, can help people to feel comfortable and more connected. Sometimes, people request a few sessions face to face then change to online, once they have built a relationship with me.

Payment via Health Insurance
I work independently and I work mainly with private paying clients. I would recommend speaking to your insurer if they will reimburse private mental health support.
