Hi, I'm Melanie
Certified Life Coach & Healthy Lifestyle Mentor
I came to therapy years ago believing I needed to "fix" my[broken]self. What I found instead was space to understand my emotions, space to feel, space to be me. That's what I offer now.
I don't believe in quick fixes nor one-size-fits-all approaches. I believe healing happens with steady, person-centred work – the kind that helps you peel back the layers to get to know what's going on underneath the surface.
Grounded in compassion, gentle curiosity and collaboration, my sessions aim to offer you a space where you can reconnect with yourself.
If you're ready to start therapy, I would love to hear from you.
Ready to begin?
I'm ready when you are.

The human behind the therapy:

International – I'm French-Italian, grew up in England, and moved to the Netherlands in 2019.
-
Foodie – coffee, chocolate and avocado on sourdough are some of my favourite things.

Bookworm – my happy place is anywhere with a good book, preferably by a French existentialist.
-
20% hippy – I believe love heals, and the world is made better when we reconnect with our true selves. The happier and healthier we are on the inside, the happier and healthier we can make the world.
-
80% pragmatic – because life is not rainbows and unicorns. Inner work is hard work and it takes more than mantras and crystals; it takes courage and the right therapist to facilitate the work.
