Marijke Psychologenpraktijk Amsterdam

Service Description

Help for children and adolescents in the center of Amsterdam If your child has not been feeling well for a long time, it is very nice to talk to someone about it, just pay attention to yourself and talk about the things that are important to your child. The youth care team of psychologists and therapists at the Child Psychologist Practice Marijke can help your child in Amsterdam-Center (near the Amstel). The child and adolescent psychologists look for the underlying cause and offer practical solutions to your child's problems. How often your child wants to come is entirely up to him/her. All assistance to children up to the age of 18 is fully reimbursed by the municipalities of Amsterdam, Amstelveen and Aalsmeer, Zaanstreek and Waterland, Diemen, Ouder-Amstel, Uithoorn and Weesp. Treatment in children and adolescents Your child determines how he/she wants to be helped: young people (adolescents) often like to talk about certain topics, while children opt for a game form or a creative work form. If your child wants it, the parents or siblings may attend the sessions. Your child may also bring a friend along. The door is open to anyone your child considers important to involve in the sessions. For example, sometimes it is nice that the parents receive useful advice to help the child ( parent talks , family therapy and systemic therapy). Sometimes the child psychologists or child therapists of Marijke's child and youth practice give advice to the teacher at school, such as applying concentration techniques so that your child is less distracted and the learning performance improves.
