English-Speaking Therapist in Eindhoven.

The work

The work I do is relational and pattern-focused. I don't run intake checklists or assign homework between sessions; I pay attention to what happens in the session, the moments when something shifts or goes flat, and the recurring pattern underneath the presenting problem. Most people already know the story of their situation and keep landing in the same place. What's missing is someone watching in real time who can name what's invisible from inside it. More on how I work, and how I work with couples.

Therapy in Eindhoven: a tech region short on English depth work

The Netherlands has a serious access problem. Public mental health care runs through the GGZ on a referral from your huisarts, and basic insurance covers it, but waiting lists now average around twenty-four weeks, the work is often in Dutch, and relationship therapy is not covered at all and is private everywhere. Private individual sessions run roughly 90 to 150 euros, more for couples, and English-speaking depth therapists are in high demand and frequently booked. Eindhoven concentrates a large international tech and engineering workforce in the south of the country, with the same long GGZ waits. This is private depth work in English, paid directly, outside the GGZ.

The Eindhoven patterns

The Brainport region selects for engineers. The international hired into ASML, the High Tech Campus, or a supplier, often relocated from abroad into a mid-size Dutch city built around the work. The trailing partner with their own career on hold, isolated in a town where the social world runs through the employer. The high performer whose technical life is thriving and whose inner life has flattened. Engineering cultures reward solving and de-emphasize feeling, which can leave a lot unspoken. The work makes room for it, in English.

Why people in Eindhoven work with me

Three reasons. Speed, first: with GGZ waits around twenty-four weeks, I have room now and need no referral. Fit, second: my entire practice is people living outside their home country, so the texture of an international tech posting in Eindhoven needs no translating, and the work is depth-oriented. Privacy, third: I work outside the Dutch system entirely, so nothing is entered on any record your insurer or GP can reach. For GGZ or in-person care, I will point you toward it.

Questions people ask from Eindhoven

What people bring to online therapy

The people I work with in English come for a wide range of reasons: anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, anger management, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, loneliness, self-esteem issues, procrastination, sleep problems, attachment patterns, self-sabotage, perfectionism, identity questions, and existential concerns. Online counseling makes this work possible from wherever you are, whether you need an English-speaking therapist, a virtual counselor, or simply someone who can work in your language at a depth that matters.

How it works

Sessions are online via secure video call. I work with individuals and couples (60 minutes). Before your first session, we have a free 15-minute call to see if this feels like the right fit for you.
