About me

If you knew me, you would know...
that I love flowers, tea, books and people,
that I really like playing (board) games and being goofy,
that I need true connection as much as the air that I breathe,
that I have big feet and that the morning is my favorite part of the day.

if you really knew me, you would know...
that I have an intimate relationship with bulimia nervosa, self-doubt, loneliness, depression, chronic exhaustion and feeling stuck.
that I've been suicidal more than once in my life.
that I held poetry circles in the mental hospital where I once stayed.

If you really, really knew me, you would also know...
That I find wonder and beauty with the ease of a child finding puddles,
that bulimia and I fairy recently parted ways.
that authentic relating is the love of my life
and that my beloved partner Stijn is my favorite number two. (and yes: he knows!)
I have been trained as an Authentic Relating Facilitator and have completed various courses including Holding Space, Core process Therapy, inner child work, Circling and Internal Family Systems.
I am welll on my way to be certified as a practitioner of Relational Life Therapy.
