I have Master’s degrees in both Child & Adolescent Psychology and Health Psychology. I’m also a taskforce member of the International School Counselor Association and one of the founders of the Families in Global Transition-Dutch Affiliate.

I am passionate about connecting with people.

Passionate about both connecting with people all over the world and about the role of education, since 2011, I have been involved in the Pestalozzi Programme for education professionals of the Council of Europe, in different roles: as a teacher trainer, and moderator of the online Community of Practice. I also deliver training on a variety of topics, including ‘third culture kids’; coping with change; dealing with stress, bereavement and expat loss; violence prevention; special educational needs and inclusion; and understanding diversity.
