I am Agathe, a Utrecht-based psychologist, and member of the
Nederlands Instituut van Psychologen (NIP). I have master’s degrees
in Clinical Psychology and Social and Health Psychology from the
University of Utrecht. I have experience working with private practice and
the Dutch Mental Health Care System (GGZ).
I offer individual therapy to adults in French and
English. Sessions can take place in person or online.
Through the psychotherapy process, we explore our feelings and
behaviors to gain valuable insight into ourselves. With better
understanding, we get more control over our lives and can create a
unique environment that suits us. We either remove or learn how to
handle stressors and obstacles, freeing the path to reaching our
goals.
I can help you work through:
Anxiety including panic attacks
Excessive stress
Depressive moods, low energy, and problems with concentration
Unhappiness, emptiness, and feelings of guilt
Traumas and aversive events from childhood
Sleeping problems such as insomnia and nightmares
Interpersonal issues, complex family dynamics, irritability, difficulties with connecting with people and setting boundaries
Self-esteem issues, lack of confidence, difficulty reaching goals
Problems related to living abroad e.g. homesickness, loneliness, cultural differences
Sessions can take
place online or at Ramstraat 31, 3581 HD Utrecht.
During this call, we get
to know each other and I ask about the reasons that led you
to seek out therapy. The aim is to determine the range and
severity of your complaints and estimate if I can provide
help.
I usually see
clients every week or every other week. However,
the frequency of sessions is quite flexible and can be
adapted depending on the severity of the complaints and
preferences.
The therapy is tailored
to each patient. What works for one person may not work for
another. I use EMDR and techniques derived
from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema
Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT),
and Attachment theory.
The first call is free.
The standard price for a 1-hour session is €100
with Agathe and €90 with Ioanna. For patients with
lower income a discounted price is applicable. If you wish to
benefit from discounted pricing please let us know in the
initial contact form.
I am currently not working with insurance companies. There are some advantages to that:
There is more freedom regarding the approach chosen and I can offer more specialized treatment
There is no limited number of sessions. If needed, we can go in-depth and target longer-term goals
The frequency of sessions is flexible and can be adjusted depending on your needs or preferences
If you want to cancel or
reschedule an appointment contact me via ae.therapy.utrecht@gmail.com.
I gently ask you to inform me 24 hours before the
planned appointment.

What you are feeling is
scary but not life-threatening. It is only a temporary
state. Watch this video to get reassurance and guidance on what
to do if you are in the middle of a panic attack.
