Getting started is easy! You can book a free intake session through my website, send me an email at vf.psychology@gmail.com. I’d be happy to answer any questions and help you begin your journey toward mental well-being.

What are your fees?

Because therapy is a personal and individualized process, I prefer to discuss the tariff during our free intake session. This allows us to explore your situation, the type of support you need, and the best approach for your therapy, ensuring that the pricing is fair and transparent for your specific case. For detailed information about fees please contact me directly at vf.psychology@gmail.com or book an free intake where I can answer all your questions..

Do you accept insurance?

I am a private psychologist and do not work with insurance companies in the Netherlands. The mental healthcare system is currently overwhelmed, with long waiting lists for insured care. By offering private therapy, I can guarantee immediate availability, so you can receive the support you need without unnecessary delays.

My fees are accessible, and some families may be able to finance their sessions through the Personal Budget (PGB) provided by the municipality.

What is the PGB and how does it work?

The PGB (Persoonsgebonden Budget) is a subsidy that allows individuals with specific care needs to hire professionals of their choice, rather than relying solely on public healthcare services. If you meet the requirements, you can apply for this budget through your municipality and use it to cover the cost of therapy sessions.
