Addiction Counselling & Therapy
Addiction - Introduction
Therapists and psychologists who can support you when you suffer from addiction.
Addiction is a difficulty in controlling certain repetitive behaviours to the extent that they have harmful consequences. This repetitive behaviour is a result of powerful compulsions to use and do certain things excessively, often out of a need to escape from upsetting emotions/situations.
It can trigger a self-perpetuating process, which can cause pain and suffering not only for those addicted, but also for their friends and family.
Generally an addiction is defined as a habit that has become out of control to the extent that the sufferer is dependent on it for coping with daily life.

- Alcohol and drug abuse

Haarlem

Are you an english speaking person, juggling with the stress of life? Feeling unbalanced, stressed, easily triggered? Maybe there are cultural issues bothering you. Or you tend to overthink or overeat or have other addiction driven behavior. I see all forms of addiction as a way of coping with feelings.

Do you long for a relationship in which you feel close and live your potential? In which you feel loved, supported and share your responsibility for creating a loving relationship? In which you can discuss sensitive issues with each other without endless fights? Do you want to regain trust in each other after infidelity? And want to revive your sex life? (creating intimacy is part of the answer)
It is possible and I would love to guide you in this journey.
Hilversum

Sometimes you can lose the connection with yourself. You run into the same problems over and over again in your work, your health, your relationship or your family. You want to change, but you don't know how to do it differently. In my practice, I’ll teach you to look at your patterns and obstacles with understanding and empathy and determine the underlying need that drives them. By learning how to fulfill this need yourself, you can choose to act differently and you’ll be able to reconnect with yourself again and others
