Acceptance & Commitment Therapy – Psyche & Zwangerschap

Judith Buursema-Grave

My name is Judith Buursema-Grave. I have been working in an independent practice, for children, youth and adults. I have gained experience with counseling and treatment of women, couples and young families in the phase of an (unfulfilled) desire for children to parenthood. In my professional and personal experience this stage of your life is as beautiful as vulnerable. If things go differently than expected, it can have a major impact on your life and relationships.

My treatments are characterized by a cognitive behavioral therapeutic framework (CBT), in which I find it important to focus on someone’s story and request for help, to place symptoms in a context and at the same time integrate scientific insights.

I work as a Health Care Psychologist and I am a registered Cognitive Behavioral Therapist VGCt. I have worked as a psychologist in various mental health institutions and have gained experience in diagnosing and treating anxiety, trauma and mood disorders, personality problems and psychosomatics. I apply the following treatment techniques: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Imaginary Exposure (IE), schema therapeutic interventions, mindfulness based cognitive therapy (CT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

I currently work for Psyche and Pregnancy on Thursdays.
I work in a practice in Nijmegen and online.

Professional association: LVVP, VGCt.

I am also a member of the Dutch Knowledge Center for Psychiatry and Pregnancy.

Contracts: with all health insurers via Stichting 1NP.

Sascha van Ede – Boes

Sascha van Ede is 53 years old and has been working as a GZ-Psychologist since 2005. She has gained experience in various workplaces in the (basic) mental health care. In recent years she has worked with parents of young children.

In the treatments, attention is paid to the different -and changing- roles of partners and (becoming) parents at the arrival of their child. And the expectations, emotions and cognitions that may accompany this. Sascha thinks it is important to listen to the story of the person seeking help and then together make a choice where the treatment will focus on. The partner can also be involved in this process.

Romy Damhuis

Romy has been working as a GZ-psychologist since 2021. For Romy, working at Psyche en Zwangerschap is a real opportunity to combine her background as an orthopedagoog (medical pedagogist), her vision on healthcare and her own experience in (young) parenthood. She has worked with people with depression and anxiety symptoms, trauma, burnout, people with low and high intelligence and people who experience problems in contact with themselves and others.
