Psychology Assistant and Clinic Operations
About Me
The importance of the field is underlined by its ability to empower individuals in society. Being of Dutch origin yet internationally brought up, I consider myself to be an open-minded individual who has valuable perspectives and contributions to offer in the field of psychology and patient care. I strive to understand the complexities of human cognitions and behaviours, with a continuing growth of curiosity about how the mind functions.
Currently, I am pursuing my MSc programme, which serves as a valuable stepping stone to my aspirations of further training in Psychology subsequent to completion.
My ambitions for the future are grounded in traditional and clinical evidence-based therapeutic modalities, in combination with an ongoing interest in more holistic/unconventional therapies, such as Animal-assisted Therapy, Art Therapy, Virtual Reality (VR) and others.
I am surrounded by clinical experts who closely mentor me for future practice and clinical training. I support ongoing groups, workshops, assessments, and other clinical matters.
