About Me:
Born in Australia and moved to the Netherlands at the age of 15 and currently living close to Amsterdam.
Ambulance professional as well as dealing with internal and external third parties who come in contact with traumatic stress situations. Based on more than 20 years of experience and training I offer traumatization consultancy sessions in which we discuss what the impact of such a trauma can have and how to deal with it. In sessions directly after an incident with all parties involved I then have singular sessions with people involved in an attempt to prevent an ASS ( acute stress syndrom) into becoming PTSS ( post traumatic stress syndrom) and in doing so enabling people to remain active on the job, shorten the period of stress related abnormalities or offer means to deal with traumatization in a way that is neccesary on a collegue based level.
