I work with adults. You can come on your own, with a partner or partners, or together with someone else close to you. Every meeting is shaped around your situation and your goals.

Training therapy

Individual therapy using methods from cognitive behavioural therapy, offered as part of my psychotherapy training.

Single sessions and short-term therapy

You can come for a single session, or agree on a shorter or longer process depending on what you need.

03

Sexual counselling

As a NACS-authorised sexual counsellor, support with questions of sexuality, identity and relationships, including consensual non-monogamy.

Online and video sessions

Sessions can also take place by video. Evening and weekend times are available.

Good to know

What does training therapy mean?

I provide therapy as part of my psychotherapy training, under the supervision of a training psychotherapist. In practice that means an experienced professional supports my work, and that the price per session is clearly lower than for standard therapy.

Price
€60 per session, including the first one.
Length
We agree together: a single session, a short period or a longer process. You do not have to commit to anything in advance.
Confidentiality
I am bound by professional secrecy. What is said in the session stays between us.
No referral needed
You can book a session directly yourself. Training therapy is not psychotherapy reimbursed by Kela, so no doctor's statement is required.
