My name is Debby. I was born and raised in America and relocated to the Netherlands in 2000. I opened my private practice in 2007, while studying at the Nederlandse Academie voor Psychotherapie.
During my career, I've provided the expat community with individual therapy and group courses in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). I also have over 10 years of experience as a couples therapist.
I now specialize in sex and intimacy counseling and look forward to helping you resolve your sexual concerns.
