EMDR
An evidence-based trauma treatment that works quickly and effectively for post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSD).
Treatment
We work with treatments that have been shown to be effective, and choose together with you what fits your symptoms and your goals. An individual course consists of ten to twelve sessions; the groups run for twenty weeks.
Individual treatment
02
CBT
We use cognitive behavioural therapy for anxiety, mood and trauma-related symptoms.
03
ACT
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: you learn to make room for what is there and to act on what matters to you.
04
Psychosomatic therapy
For persistent physical symptoms (ALK, formerly SOLK) we work with CBT and the consequences model. For conversion symptoms (FNS) sometimes also catalepsy and hypnosis.
05
Basic VERS
Skills training for emotion regulation (VERS), to strengthen how you handle emotions.
06
Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy
MBCT in five sessions: learning to direct your attention and to deal differently with worrying and recurring symptoms. Individually or in a group.
Fully online treatment
Do you live further away, or does travelling not fit into your week? Then your treatment can be fully online. The sessions take place by video call, with the same therapist as at the practice.
We prefer to do the intake at the practice in Amsterdam-Zuid. In the same room we get a complete picture more quickly of what is going on, and that helps in choosing the right treatment. If that is not feasible because of the distance, the intake can be done online as well.
Groups
In a group you work on your own goals, with the recognition and support of others alongside you. The groups run for twenty weeks — only the MBCT training is shorter, at five sessions. Our schema therapy groups run in both Dutch and English.

MBCT group
Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy in five sessions. You can sign up now.
If enough people apply, we would like to offer ACT and CBT groups in the future as well. Interested? Let your therapist know or send us an email.
eHealth through Therapieland
Alongside the sessions we offer online modules through Therapieland. You work through them on your own or with feedback from your therapist. That way you get more out of your treatment — we call this blended treatment.
Modules we often use: cognitive behavioural therapy (thought records), sleeping well, mindfulness, social anxiety, self-image, depression, anxiety, behavioural activation and grief. Together with your lead practitioner you look at which module fits which phase.
