Body image counselling & therapy in the Netherlands

Body image refers to how you see and feel about your body. Negative body image can affect self-esteem, confidence, and overall wellbeing.

 

You may struggle with self-criticism, comparison, or dissatisfaction with your appearance. Social media, cultural expectations, and life transitions can all play a role.

 

Therapy can help you explore these patterns and develop a more balanced and compassionate view of yourself. It can also support you in building confidence and improving your relationship with your body.

On this page, you’ll find English-speaking therapists, psychologists, and counsellors in the Netherlands who offer support for body image and related challenges.

 

You can explore the profiles below to find a therapist who matches your needs and contact them directly.

Review: “I'm so glad we came!”
Are you an english speaking person, juggling with the stress of life? Feeling unbalanced, stressed, easily triggered? Maybe there are cultural issues bothering you. Or you tend to overthink or overeat or have other addiction driven behavior. I see all forms of addiction as a way of coping with feelings.
