Welcome, as you are
Let us take this space to explore and bring to attention the fixed patterns that influence, and block, your life today. Together we identify, experiment with, and integrate new ways of relating to yourself, to others and to the world around you.
Gestalt Counselling
A holistic approach to therapy that focuses on becoming aware of experiences in the present moment
Coaching

Reiki
A Japanese energy-healing practice that uses gentle touch to encourage balance and harmony in body, mind, and spirit
Through my trainings and lived experience, I support people who:
- face challenges in personal or work relationships
- would describe their struggle as burnout, anxiety or depression
- navigate the complexities of expat or immigrant life
- wish to understand the emotional dimensions of chronic pain or medical trauma
- experience difficulties in daily life, arising from neurodivergence
- are just curious to discover new perspectives on their current situations
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.
(Jalalu'ddin Rumi)
Awareness in itself is healing.
Us humans, we are born with the innate capacity and resources to connect meaningfully with ourselves, one another and to lead a fulfilling, creative life. But along the way, something changes and this healthy process is interrupted. This usually happens during the early (or later) years of development. We then become stuck in fixed patterns and beliefs about ourselves and the world.
Change happens when we make space for our feelings and thoughts to be fully experienced in the present moment. I am here to support you on your personal journey of growth and discovery.
Questions & Answers
Coaching focuses on setting goals, clarifying values, and creating a clear vision for the future (life or career). It helps individuals unlock potential, improve performance, and take actionable steps. It’s forward-looking, solution-oriented, and starts from the premise that the person is already functioning well but wants to achieve more.
Counselling typically supports dealing with current life challenges, emotional distress, or difficult transitions. It addresses specific, often short-to medium-term issues (such as stress, grief, or relationship conflicts). While it may touch on the past, its primary aim is to help the person function more effectively in the present.
Therapy is generally a longer-term process aimed at exploring deeper patterns, emotional difficulties, and personal growth. It often examines underlying causes of distress, including early life experiences, works toward lasting change that can be experienced in the present moment.
While coaching focuses on growth and performance, counselling and therapy address emotional well-being and psychological health. The line between counselling and therapy isn’t rigid. In reality, the two can overlap.
For emotional support: I offer Gestalt coaching and counselling which help reframing challending situations in the present moment
For physical support: I offer Reiki treatments that help the body release tension and achieve a state of calm. Regular Reiki sessions promote relaxation in the body.
Yes. For Gestalt therapy we begin with a short, 30-minute introductory meeting (available in person, online or via phone) free of charge. During this first session, we’ll discuss your reasons for seeking support and collaboratively create a plan for future sessions. This initial meeting also helps us determine if we’re a good fit to work together.
Reiki clients are also invited to book an intake session. During this first introductory meeting we discuss your needs and plan the next in person session.

I currently offer sessions in English, Romanian, and Dutch, and we can choose the language that best suits your needs. I also understand Spanish, French, and German, and I’m open to be present and supporting you in these languages if needed.
Individual Gestalt sessions (coaching, counselling, or therapy) range from €45 to €70 for a 60-minute session. For workshops and other opportunities, fees are listed on the respective webpage.
Reiki sessions are priced between €35 and €75, depending on the treatment length, which ranges from 60 to 90 minutes.
The lower fee applies to clients with low income, while the higher fees reflect regular rates. Currently, my services are VAT exempt, so no additional taxes are added.
No. As an independent counsellor at the moment I do not have agreements with any health insurance providers.
