About Amaya
Being an Having experienced a fair share of adjustments, I’ve learned firsthand about the challenges of adapting to new places, cultures, and languages. Although it’s definitely a tough journey, it’s also incredibly rewarding.
My journey as an expat has fuelled my passion for helping others navigate similar transitions. I know how important it is to feel supported and understood during times of change. That’s why I strive to create a warm, empathetic, and judgment-free space in therapy. Together, we’ll explore your emotions and thoughts freely, finding meaningful solutions and making sense of your experiences.
Besides my work, I love learning about different cultures, languages and traditions. I was recently traveling through Latin America and had the opportunity to learn about different ways of understanding health and well-being. I’m also a very curious person and I have a weak spot for fun facts.
“Truth is relative to the point of view from which it is perceived. What I look as and where I look from determine my perception of truth. Everyone, from their viewpoint, is seeing truth.

In 2019, I moved to the Netherlands, where I obtained my Master’s in Psychology. While my bachelor’s education was of psychodynamic orientation, I also incorporate evidence-based treatments into my practice, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I have found this integration to be highly effective, as it allows us to gain insight into clients’ histories while employing techniques aimed at facilitating change.
