THERAPIST
Originally from The Netherlands, my path began with a Bachelor’s degree in Art Therapy. After moving to Eugene, Oregon, I led art therapy groups at the Lane County jail and a day treatment center for teens. Seeking to deepen my clinical practice, I earned my Master’s in Couples & Family Therapy from the University of Oregon in 2007.
My commitment to supporting life’s most profound transitions led me to become a hospice volunteer in 2024 and complete my Death Doula training in 2026. Today, I combine these experiences in my private practice, where I serve adults as both a therapist and death doula—offering a unique blend of clinical expertise and soulful advocacy.​​
