About me

I am a dedicated Psycologist (MA) and certified Art Psychotherapist with specialist training in EMDR, Schema Therapy and trauma-informed approaches. Currently practicing as a NIP Psycholoog in the Netherlands, I work with individuals from diverse cultural and life backgrounds to support their mental well-being, emotional regulation, and personal growth. My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, creativity, and evidence-based practice, enabling clients to explore their challenges in a safe, collaborative, and empowering environment.

With a deep passion for mental health and human behavior, I integrate a variety of modalities including art-based therapies and trauma-focused techniques to tailor each intervention to the unique needs of clients. My work embraces vulnerability and resilience, fostering opportunities for insight, healing, and meaningful change. Over the years, I have also facilitated workshops that center on expressive and reflective practices, especially in contexts of migration and personal transformation.

I am committed to lifelong learning and cross-cultural understanding, drawing on both clinical expertise and creative methods to enhance therapeutic outcomes. Outside of my professional practice, I enjoy exploring the intersections between psychology, art, and community connection and believing that holistic well-being emerges from both inner growth and meaningful relationships.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Art therapyRecommended for those who feel more comfortable expressing emotions through creativity and want to explore their feelings through art rather than talking.
EMDRRecommended for those dealing with trauma who want to process painful memories in a structured way to reduce their emotional impact.
Schema therapyRecommended for those who want to break out of negative patterns or "schemas" that they developed early in life and keep repeating.

My therapeutic style is integrative, trauma-informed, and client-centered. I create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard and respected, and I work collaboratively to explore their experiences at a pace that feels right for them. Drawing on evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, art psychotherapy, and talk therapy, I adapt my work to each individual’s needs.

I value both verbal and non-verbal expression and support clients in developing insight, emotional regulation, and resilience. My approach is empathetic, culturally sensitive, and focused on meaningful, sustainable change.
