about me

With a background in Education and Language learning in The Netherlands, I took on the study of Psychotherapy in New Zealand and graduated as a Gestalt Psychotherapist in 2006.

There can be various motivations for a client deciding to engage in Psychotherapy. Life can be challenging, overwhelming and confusing. Talking with friends or family can be impossible or unhelpful and you may feel isolated, sad, angry and/or lonely. This can be a good time to make an appointment with a Psychotherapist with whom you can talk freely in a confidential setting.

However, therapy can also provide a platform on which to explore your life. It can then be a way of finding awareness of patterns and how your past may impact on your present and future.

I warmly welcome you to my private practice at 31 Stafford Street.

I have a special interest in working with clients whose first language is not English. I know from experience that sharing deeply personal matters in a language you did not grow up with, is not always easy.  

I am bi-lingual and therefore can offer Psychotherapy conducted in English and Dutch.

Practice hours

I practise on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday from 9:00am to 5:00pm.

Duration & Cost

Clients can come in for a one-off session, work short-term or long-term. This is usually something the client and I assess and decide on together. Please do not hesitate to contact me for appointment fees. 

International Students are able to organise billing through StudentSafe insurance.
