What you share with me is personal, and I treat it that way.

When you contact me or we work together, I process personal information such as your name, contact details and information that is relevant to our sessions. I only collect and use information that is needed for our work together and for running my practice.

Client administration and notes are stored securely. I handle your personal information with care and confidentiality, in line with applicable privacy legislation (GDPR/AVG) and my professional responsibilities as a psychologist.

Your information is not shared with others unless there is a valid reason to do so — for example, when you have given permission or when I am legally required to share information.

You have rights when it comes to your personal data. This includes the right to ask what information I hold about you, to correct information that is inaccurate and, in certain circumstances, to request that information is deleted.

If you have any questions about your privacy or personal data, you're always welcome to contact me.

I am a member of the Dutch Association for Psychologists (NIP) and work in accordance with the NIP Professional Code for Psychologists.

The code provides professional and ethical guidelines for psychologists, including confidentiality, integrity, respect, expertise and responsibility.

You can find the current Professional Code and more information on the NIP website.

Our work together should also leave room for feedback, questions or concerns. If you're unhappy with something in our work together, I hope you'll feel comfortable telling me. You can bring it up during a session or contact me by email.

I'll always take your concerns seriously and, where possible, we'll look together at what is needed.

I am affiliated with the NIP complaints procedure. If you're not satisfied with the outcome of our conversation, you can contact the independent complaints officer from Centraal Bureau Klachtenmanagement in de Zorg (CBKZ). The complaints officer can help you explore the appropriate next step and, where relevant, support mediation.

You can find up-to-date information about the complaints procedure and the different options available through the NIP.

My services are primarily coaching-based and focus on preventative mental health care, personal development, wellbeing and psychological resilience. They are not intended as specialist mental healthcare or crisis support.

If, during our work together, it becomes clear that another form of support would be more appropriate for what you're experiencing, I'll discuss this openly with you.

If you're experiencing an acute mental health crisis, please contact your GP. In the Netherlands, you can also contact 113 Suicide Prevention if you're experiencing suicidal thoughts.
