The pressure on young people is greater than ever and the waiting lists for support are unacceptably long. I offer a mental kickstart when you need it most: now.
Whether you are stuck in your studies, your first job, your personal life or a combination of everything: waiting months for a psychologist is not an option when the need is urgent now.

Prevention: stopping mild complaints from escalating
After an intense period Sasja helped me turn the chaos in my head into action. She doesn't feel like a standard coach or psychologist; she stands beside you and understands the pressure we as students and young people deal with. Together with her I organised the evening at the Amstelkerk, where she also supported my family in sharing our story. Sasja is honest and straightforward, but above all she gives you the confidence that you can take back control. When you are stuck, she is the person who gets you moving again.
Sometimes you meet someone at exactly the right moment. During my studies there was a period when I wasn't doing well, and Sasja was someone who was truly there for me. She listened, she saw me and she gave me the support I needed. Exactly the way she now wants to help others through her coaching. So wonderful to see that she has made this her work. If you know someone for whom this could be valuable, I wholeheartedly recommend her.
