Psychologist and Counsellor in The Hague

I am psychologist and integrative counsellor supporting adults, couples, families, parents and expats. I offer therapy in English and Russian, both in person in The Hague and online.

​​

At S.Redman Psychology and Counselling I offer individual therapy for adults and young people, couples therapy, parenting support, and therapeutic work involving family members.

People often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, misunderstood, or uncertain about how to move forward. You may already understand some of your patterns but find that insight alone is not enough to change them. Or you may simply sense that something is not quite right without yet knowing why.

Therapy offers a confidential space to slow down, explore what may be happening beneath the surface, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself, your emotions, and your relationships.

​

My Therapeutic Approach

My approach is integrative, meaning that I do not expect one therapeutic model to suit every person or every difficulty. I draw primarily from person-centred, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural, attachment-based, and systemic approaches, adapting our work to your needs, personality, circumstances, and goals.

Together, we may explore how past experiences and relationships continue to influence the way you feel, relate to others, and respond to situations today. We may also work more practically with difficult emotions, unhelpful beliefs, communication, boundaries, coping strategies, and recurring relationship patterns.

Rather than focusing only on reducing symptoms, I am interested in understanding what those symptoms may be communicating and what needs or experiences may lie beneath them. The aim is not to tell you how to live, but to help you develop greater self-understanding, emotional flexibility, and freedom to make choices that feel more authentic and supportive of the life and relationships you want.

​

Therapy for Expats and Internationals

Having lived in several countries and raised a family across cultures, I understand some of the challenges that can accompany relocation, cultural adjustment, intercultural relationships, identity changes, career transitions, and living far from familiar support networks.

I provide counselling in English and Russian for expats and international clients from diverse cultural backgrounds.
