Expat therapy - Expat counselling - Expat coaching Netherlands

We all run into problems every day. Some are easier to resolve or deal with than others, but no matter where an experience is on the continuum from mildly problematic to traumatic, there is a way back to regulation if we understand how the nervous system works. As we learn to become friends with our nervous system and anchor ourselves in a safe state of the autonomic nervous system, the inevitable challenges in our daily lives are no longer nearly as terrifying. We discover we can recover even from traumatic events.

Most of the time you can take care of yourself just fine. But sometimes you can be in a place where you don't have the space or clarity to figure it all out by yourself. Then it can be useful to talk to a therapist. It can speed up the process because the sessions help you gain new insights more quickly and act on them. I work with proven psychological techniques, but also humanity, compassion and humor.
I'm fluent in English, French and Dutch.

Thérapie en Français également possible.
