In Brief

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or recurring issues in your work, studies, or relationships? Psychiatrie Praktijk Houten offers a range of services to help you manage these challenges:
  • Psychiatric assessment and diagnostics
  • Medication
  • Psychotherapy
Looking for support with mental health? The Houten Psychiatric Practice can help. We offer diagnostics for psychiatric disorders, medication consultations, and psychotherapy for adults in both Dutch and English. If you do not speak Dutch or English, please bring a relative or friend who does.People from all cultures are welcome, but please note that my expertise is not intranscultural psychiatry. If the mental health problems are strongly interwoven with yourcultural background I might refer you to i-psy.Whether you need individual therapy or want to involve your partner or family, we can create a treatment plan that works for you. The practice offers flexible and confidential care: Appointments are available in-person at the practice or digitally for your convenience. All conversations are completely confidential, and we take your privacy very seriously. If you are interested, you can read more about what the medical confidentiality entails.

In psychotherapeutic treatment, I use influences from different approaches: Cognitive Behavorial Therapy (CGT), Short-Term Supportive Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (KPSP), Schemafocussed Therapy (ST). Medication and psychotherapy can be combined, ofcourse this will be discussed with you to create a personalized treatment plan. In the event that medication is started, or you have been on medication for a while, we can review its effectiveness and discuss a potential plan to gradually taper off if appropriate. If you have a previous diagnosis that you're unsure about, we can re-evaluate it together to see if it's still accurate and recommend the most suitable course of action.

If your mental health symptoms are severe, treatment with an independent at this practice may not be the best course of action. In these cases, you might require more comprehensive support from specialized institutions such as Altrecht or UMC Utrecht. Unsure if this applies to you? Don't hesitate to discuss your situation with your current healthcare provider (general practitioner, POH, psychologist, or psychotherapist). They can help you determine the most suitable treatment plan for your needs. page for referrers
