Psychologist Amsterdam
Practice Niessen Amsterdam
Good evening and a warm welcome to my website Psychologist Amsterdam-North.
Are you feeling stuck and could you use some help? At my psychology practice I offer you professional support for a wide range of issues, such as anxiety, stress, perfectionism, worrying, negative thoughts or emotions, relationship problems, burnout, insecurity, or a recurring sense of dissatisfaction. You are also welcome if you don’t have a specific complaint but feel the need for personal growth or self-development.
At my practice, located at the NDSM wharf in Amsterdam-Noord, you can schedule an intake appointment at short notice. Sessions can also be held online if you prefer. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a free introductory phone call.
During our first session, we will start the therapy right away by gaining a clear understanding of what you are struggling with. I will ask you to describe the problem and to give an example of a situation in which you experienced it. This focus helps us get to the core of your issue and connect with your underlying feelings.
My work is based on a psychoanalytic framework. This means we will look not only at what is visible on the surface, but also at what may be happening unconsciously. Unprocessed or repressed emotions often cause inner unrest and can throw you off balance. Because they operate outside of your awareness, they can influence your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in ways that are beyond your control. The goal of this form of psychotherapy is to help you reconnect with these feelings, needs, and desires.
The therapeutic relationship we build together is perhaps the most important factor in achieving your goals. Only when you feel safe can you explore and share your inner world. That’s why authenticity, empathy, and openness are central to my approach. I work in an active, curious, and engaged manner. I see you as a unique person, and I value the connection we create as something unique as well.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have or if you'd like to get started together as soon as possible. You are more than welcome.
Sincerely,
Maurice
