Hi,

I am Ellen. How are you, truly? I believe that everyone has a unique journey worth exploring. Growing up in a multicultural family as a second-generation migrant — Filipino and Belgian — shaped my perspective on life and mental health from an early age.

I believe in the power of healing through authenticity, connection, and deep understanding. As a psychologist, I take a holistic approach, seeing each person as a whole — mind, emotions, and body — rather than just a set of symptoms. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel truly seen and supported on your journey toward growth and well-being.

How I Can Support You

I offer a range of therapeutic services tailored to your needs, including:

  • Psychological assessments (psychodiagnostics) to gain deeper insight.
  • Individual therapy sessions for personal growth and healing.
  • Group sessions to foster connection and shared learning.
  • Retreats for deeper transformation in a safe and immersive environment.

My Approach

I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and schema therapy to help you recognize and shift unhelpful patterns. I believe that healing happens on multiple levels, which is why I embrace a holistic perspective. In October 2025, I will also begin training in Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE), a body-focused technique that supports emotional and physical release.

A Space for Growth & Connection

Therapy is not just about addressing difficulties. It’s about uncovering your strengths, reconnecting with yourself, and finding new ways to move forward. Whether in one-on-one sessions, group settings, or retreats, I am here to guide you with warmth, care, and expertise.

You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Let’s take the first step together.
