About Me
Hi! I'm Emily, a South African, English speaking Psychologist offering therapy in the Netherlands. Over the last eight years, I’ve worked with people facing a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges, from everyday stress and relationship difficulties to more complex psychiatric diagnoses. My professional journey has allowed me an opportunity to work with children, adults, couples and families from diverse backgrounds. In addition to my training in Clinical Psychology, I am also a qualified Social Worker.
My Approach
My therapeutic approach is holistic and person-centered, aiming to support the whole individual - emotionally, psychologically, and within their broader life context. I tailor therapy to meet each person's unique needs and circumstances. I draw from a range of evidence-based methods, including Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Gestalt Therapy, and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. Now based in the Netherlands, I offer psychotherapy both in-person and online to expats and English-speaking individuals navigating life transitions, emotional challenges, or the complexities of living abroad.
Getting Help
Reaching out for help can be one of the hardest steps to take, especially when you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or vulnerable. It’s not easy to acknowledge that you’re struggling, let alone share those feelings with someone else. However, seeking support is a powerful act of courage and self-care, and you don’t have to face your challenges alone. As a Psychologist, I am here to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can work together to understand your concerns and find ways to move forward. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or just need someone to talk to, I’m here to help. I offer both in-person and online sessions.
