About me
Third Culture Kid. Growing up in South Africa, Malaysia, Turkey, Malta and the Netherlands - You could say I love diversity.
My love for analysing and understanding people urged me to get a BSc Psychology and a MSc Clinical Psychology in the Netherlands. I believe everyone deserves the choice to lead a life they find meaningful and not be controlled by their automated responses.

Approach
My goal from our sessions is not to eliminate distress (well maybe a little bit), but in actuality, I’d like to bring you the awareness of choice in your life. By recognising the power of choice, we feel ready to face challenges in our life.
