Rise above it! Based on this vision, I will work with you to broaden your view on (difficult) situations and mutual interactions. I look at what relational difficulties there are between you or in the family. To explore from there what is happening between you and to see the mutual patterns and interactions in context. In this way we will look for solutions together. I want to teach you to listen to each other again. Not only with your ears, but especially with your eyes and your heart. To look for the possibilities, connection and resilience from sincere curiosity, so that you discover bright spots again. I am happy to guide you in this process from a direct, warm and solution-oriented attitude, with room for humor. And if the need arises, I like to work with the whole family.
Background
My background is in child, adolescent and adult psychiatry (ggz) and youth care. In these positions I have worked with families who had to find balance in their mutual relationships. After my studies in nursing and social work, I completed the post-master’s program for family and relationship therapist (system therapist) at the Amsterdam Institute for Family and Relationship Therapy (AIGR). In addition to my work in practice, I work within a large organization in youth care as a systems therapist.
