Gerlind Fuge

It has always interested me: why has a person become the way he/she is? I find it exciting to examine this together with you.

As a child, we have no influence on what kind of family we are raised in. It is only later that we become aware that some behavioral patterns that we have learned may not be useful, lead to problems again and again, or make us feel insecure or depressed. We can not change our past, undo the hurts that happened to us in childhood. But we can change ourselves, regain our lost integrity.

We can do this by looking at ourselves honestly and becoming aware of what has happened in our lives and expressing our need. This can sometimes be an uncomfortable process, but it gives us the opportunity to transform from unconscious victimization into a responsible person, who knows his history and lives with it.

Together we make a plan that you want to work on, what you want to leave behind or in which you want to develop, so that you can regain control of your life.

Work experience

I am a psychotherapist, GZ psychologist and coach. Trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, I now mainly work with schema therapy, an integrative form of therapy that focuses on recognizing and changing patterns of behavior and feelings. As an experienced EMDR therapist, I also focus on processing trauma.

I have been working in a group practice for psychotherapy & coaching in Amsterdam for 25 years. In addition to psychotherapeutic work, I have followed a training as a coach and I offer coaching and training programs in the field of personal effectiveness. I work with techniques such as Voice Dialogue, Transactional Analysis, ACT (Acceptance & Commitment therapy) and CRM (Comprehensive Resource Model). I also provide couples therapy based on the EFT model.

Language therapy/coaching : Dutch, English or German.

Characteristic for me is my enthusiasm and good cooperation with my clients.
Member of NIP, LVVP and Vereniging voor EMDR, Candidate Member of Schematherapie and supervisor for NVP.

Working method

My clients describe me as a warm and friendly person who puts their finger on the sore spot. I work from equality and empathy. Depending on your question, we choose a method that suits you, such as Schema therapy in combination with EMDR, Transactional Analysis, Voice – Dialogue or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
