Master Content and Knowledge Engineering (5 years, Utrecht university)

Refresher training

The professional association (VBAG) and health insurers require care providers to continuously train and keep their knowledge up to date. I comply with all the obligations set for this. After my study Energy therapy I followed the following accredited studies/masterclasses/courses:

Emotional Freedom Therapy (EFT), trauma processing

Emotional Freedom Therapy is a technique aimed at extinguishing trauma responses, so that trauma has less control over us. The technique is closely related to EMDR and combines principles of EMDR (distraction through eye movements, among other things) with acupressure techniques.

Periodic peer consultation

Peer review (at least 6 times per year)

I participate in peer consultation with colleagues from the field at least six times a year. During intervision, knowledge is exchanged and we keep each other focused on the quality of care, applicable guidelines and any new insights and trends in our field. There is also room for self-reflection as a therapist and topics such as ethics are discussed.
