From a young age, I have been interested in people, their stories and feelings. I worked for over 25 years as an addiction specialist in an addiction treatment facility in the north of the country. Studying humanistics at UVH in Utrecht along with that, gave me tools to talk to people also about the story behind their addiction and helped them understand themselves better. And for the last 10 years with PRI as the icing on the cake, people (provided they already or still have some degree of control over their use or addictive actions) can come into my practice to learn what their destructive patterns are a reaction to, how to break those patterns themselves and live truly free!
Another important group of clients in my practice are social workers. Because I know how difficult it can be to ask for and find help when you are usually the helper yourself.
But of course you are also welcome with other questions of help: anxiety, somberness, misunderstood physical complaints, relationship problems….
I am married and mother of 3 wonderful adolescents. I am in the PRI research group and therapy with me can also be done in Frisian.
