Sometimes we feel lost, but we are in control. Be in charge of your own life, not out of fear, but out of love. Your path is unique. Dare to live! Problems in child- or adulthood can be diagnosed, but they do not arise 'just like that'. Collaboratively we will work together on finding the root causes for these issues. I focus hereby on attachment, parenting style, present relationship(s) and temperament. If you understand where the problems come from, you are able to address them, with support from the people surround you. If you experience no support, I will support you to mobilize people.
In addition to my office down town I also offer outdoor consultation on my farm - all ages (i.e. field walks, visiting/feeding animals). For children/teens the option to include their creative process during a consult (easel & paint).
Look for answers from the past to enjoy the future!

During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I usually integrate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. During your free intake we'll explore what brought you to therapy and you decide if you like to continue with the (most) suitable plan to help you make progress. During treatment we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences from a trauma informed perspective. You learn how to resist those thoughts to enjoy life again!
