I offer an integrative, complementary (outside mainstream mental health) trauma-informed therapeutic experience grounded in my training as an Arts Therapist, Psychosocial Therapist, ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and Autism specialist. I am a reliable, experienced therapist specialising in working with neurodivergent individuals. The therapeutic experience that I offer follows no one-size-fits-all script or protocol. I take the time to observe, listen, and acknowledge what the client brings to the therapeutic space. I may guide the client by suggesting they draw or write what they are experiencing. There may be moments of silence, too; sitting with that silence can have meaning and purpose. Together with the client, we find ways to facilitate change and encourage the exploration of feelings through non-judgmental, self-loving approaches. Through this process, clients can learn about their values and needs and how to articulate them effectively to others.<\/p><p>I identify as Neurodivergent and invite you to read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nurturingneurodiversity.nl\/made-by-dyslexia\/\">My Story.<\/a> I have over twenty years of experience working as a therapist or counsellor in International Education settings, social work and private practice. I value working in diverse environments. In addition to the therapy I offer through Nurturing Neurodiversity Netherlands, I work as a freelance Student Counsellor at Codam College (Amsterdam).<\/p><p>I hope to meet you soon!<\/p><p>Annabelle<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1fc8905 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1fc8905\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7bd03e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f7bd03e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.19.0 - 29-01-2024 *\/\n.elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}<\/style><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Experience<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c58a71 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3c58a71\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Academic<\/h3><ul><li>MA Arts Therapy (Drama)<\/li><li>MEd Autism<\/li><li>Psychosocial Therapy<\/li><li>ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)<\/li><\/ul><h3>Internationally minded<\/h3><p>I am British and Dutch, and I have worked in the international community in the Netherlands since 2006.
