GZ-psycholoog, BIG-registration number 99926886425, Certified EMDR Europe practitioner (VEN®), Certified Senior Schematherapist (VSt)
My name is Ma’ayan, and I am an Amsterdam-based therapist working with individuals from mixed backgrounds, who are navigating life across cultures. Together, we try understanding your struggles and how and why certain symptoms and patterns repeat themselves, so that we can help you shift them in a meaningful way. I offer evidence-based psychological care for adults, with sessions in English, Dutch and Hebrew.
You might consider starting therapy at Praktijk Ben-Ami if you recognise yourself in one of the following:
- Adjustment, migration and cultural identity struggles
- Long-standing patterns in how you relate to yourself and others, often shaped by early experiences, that now cause difficulty in relationships, work or your sense of self
- Trauma and difficult life events, associated with intrusive memories, flashbacks and the feeling of not being seen or safe
Depending on what your request for help is, we draft a treatment plan together. I draw on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), EMDR, schema therapy, imagery rescripting and, in some cases, a psychodynamic approach. We usually start with a free 15-minute screening call to talk through practical matters and see whether we are a good fit.
