The goal is to get you talking again and to explore together what your relationship needs. Relationship therapy also supports your mental and emotional health — by providing insight into patterns that affect your wellbeing. Staying together is not the primary goal. Therapy is about strengthening the relationship, whether that means continuing as partners or each finding your own path. If you do decide to separate, it's important to close this shared chapter with care — especially when children are involved.
We work from a deep specialisation in systemic therapy. All our therapists work under expert supervision, with regular peer consultation and from a shared vision of relationship and family therapy.
Our foundation is systemic therapy — an evidence-based approach with proven effectiveness. In sessions, we look not just at you as partners but at the entire system you operate in: your family of origin and the influence of important people in your lives, past and present.
As the only practice in the Netherlands combining scientific rigour with an integrative head–heart–body approach, we offer therapy of exceptional quality — aimed at genuine, lasting connection.
We begin with an in-depth intake session. It's important that there's a genuine connection so you feel safe and comfortable being open about your situation. Together we explore your background, expectations and current challenges.
What do you want to achieve, and what challenges do you want to address?
We explore patterns in behaviour, thoughts and emotions that influence your situation.
Together we set concrete and achievable goals to support your process.
We look at what specific changes you want to see — in yourself and in your relationship.
After the intake, we draw up a treatment plan for 5 to 8 sessions of 65 minutes each. Sessions combine insight with practical tools you can apply in everyday life. Evening appointments are also available.
