Work with me

Every so often, we run workshops, talks, and groups in Amsterdam or Haarlem, where you can connect with others figuring things out too. Because at Hikari, connection isn’t just an extra 'niceness' , it’s everything.

Meet-Ups

The teen years can be wild, but let’s be real, they can also bring self-doubt, mood swings, and, if you’re new  here, a whole set of unspoken social rules. In our sessions, I’ll help you navigate it all — from school stress and friendships to family tension and feeling out of place.

Therapy for Teens

One-on-one sessions offer you a private, supportive space where you can freely share what’s on your mind . No judgment, just honesty. Together, with care and curiosity, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and find a path toward meaningful, lasting growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a waiting list?  

Because I don’t work with Dutch medical insurance, there’s no waiting list . You can get started right away. No referral. No red tape. Just start when you’re ready.


Can I get reimbursed from my insurance?  

I have an AGB (Algemeen Gegevensbeheer Zorgverleners) code, so partial reimbursement may be possible. Ask your insurer.

How can I prepare for my first session?

Just make sure you’ve sent over any paperwork we talked about — then show up exactly as you are. No prep, no pressure.

What can I help you with?

I’ve sat with women in moments of anxiety, low mood, loneliness, grief, trauma, breakups, life changes, feeling out of place, body image struggles, bullying, and the pull of old patterns. 

  • If you’re under 18, parental consent is needed to start therapy , but what you share stays between us. Your privacy matters. I’ll only involve parents if there’s a real concern about your safety or someone else’s.

  • Sessions are a bit shorter (45 minutes).

  • This isn’t stiff, sit-still therapy. We keep it relaxed, and we’re not afraid to use games, tech, or whatever clicks for you.

  • This is for you, not your parents. You can vent, question, figure things out, or say nothing at all some days. No pressure, no judgment.

  • Sessions typically last 50 minutes, giving us enough time to work together meaningfully without overwhelming you.

  • We’ll decide together what fits best — weekly, biweekly, or as needed — depending on your goals, needs, and pace.

  • Everything we discuss is treated with strict confidentiality, in line with professional and ethical guidelines. This is your safe space.

  • Sliding scale spots are limited, but available — because I get that life doesn’t always fit the standard price tag. If that’s you, let’s chat.
