How we work.

Good therapy is in our knowledge and experience always custom made. We do use evidence based treatment methods. Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Treatment, EMDR, Systemic (Family & Couples) Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, Feedback Informed Treatment etc. etc. At the end of each session we ask feedback about the therapy. Scientific research shows that if the methods being used ‘fits’ with the client, the effectiveness of the therapy enhances. Treatment in ‘Basis GGZ’ usually contains around 10 sessions.

Owner of the practice

Maarten van der Linde

Practice founder Maarten van der Linde is a mental health psychologist, system therapist, PHD researcher and teacher (including at the VU University Amsterdam) and Maarten is also an entrepreneur; he is a founder of Ouders Inc.

“You have encouraged us. You were supporting but also delivering feedback. And that's what parents need. Far too often we have followed the flow of our child. Maarten is someone who has an overview and thinks along. I thought the therapy was superb.”

“The conversations helped me a lot. I have learned to help myself. I now have confidence that I can do it all myself. And that was different in the beginning. I am able to tackle my own problems. Thank you Maarten! You rock!”

“We were tired of fighting. We had also seen many other therapists. And then we found Maarten via a friendly expat couple that he helped before: finally a good psychologist who was able to provide insight into our problems. Maarten does not takes over the process. Instead we have learned how to navigate ourselves en our relation better. We truly have learned a lot! It was not an easy process, but we actually laughed a lot despite everything 🙂”
