About me

My name is Ronald and I am a Clinical Psychologist working in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. I completed my Master’s in Clinical Psychology in 2017 and upon graduation have been working as a teacher at Radboud University at the School of Psychology and Artificial Intelligence. Before my arrival in The Netherlands, I worked as a clinical psychologist in my private practice and I specialized in working with adults and adolescents experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, as well as academic, career and relationship issues. Along with that, I worked as a clinical psychologist at the of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry department (in a Hospital in Chile), where I worked particularly with patients with suicidal behavior and ideation as well as mood disorders. Spanish: Me llamo Ronald, soy psicólogo clínico y actualmente trabajo en Nimega, Holanda. Finalicé mi Master en Psicología Clínica en 2017 y tras mí graduación he estado trabajando como docente en la Universidad Radboud, especialmente en la Escuela de Psicología e Inteligencia Artificial. Antes de mi llegada a los Países Bajos, trabajé como psicólogo clínico en mi consulta privada y me especialicé en el trabajo con adultos y adolescentes que experimentaban depresión, ansiedad, estrés, baja autoestima, así como problemas académicos, profesionales y de relaciones. Junto con esto, trabajé como psicólogo clínico en el departamento de Psiquiatría Infantil y Adolescente (en un hospital de Chile), donde trabajé particularmente con pacientes con comportamiento e ideación suicida, así como con trastornos del estado de ánimo.

Approach

English: Why do we repeat certain behaviors? Why is it suddenly so difficult for us to fall asleep? Why can't we say no? Why do we choose the same type of partners again and again? Why do we feel lonely despite being surrounded by people? Among other things, these are some of the questions that might lead a person to consult a psychologist. From an anthropological perspective, human beings are inexorably confronted with the topics listed above, namely death, loneliness, love, and body image. When we are confronted with these problems and cannot put these problems into words, we begin to suffer from different types of symptoms, as an attempt to process in our minds an overpowering experience. In order to put these problems into words and eliminate the symptoms, psychotherapy is a way for us to understand the story underlying our symptoms and suffering. Since I completed part of my education in Europe, I offer evidence-based treatments. Evidence-based treatments are supported by research studies that have met the rigorous scientific standards of the medical community. A therapist requires specialized training to appropriately administer these treatments. Some of the evidence-based treatments I offer are: Psychodynamic Therapy, Psychoanalysis, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The treatments and interventions developed by a clinical psychologist are tailor-made, as each person requires a different level of care. This means that the type of treatment and objectives of the treatment will be discussed to the patient after a psychodiagnosis has been made. If you need to cancel your appointment, please do so within the next 24 hours to avoid getting charged the no-show fee of 30 euros.
