Hello, My name is Roy and I am a psychotherapist BIG. I am trained in both Clinical Psychology and Social and Organizational Psychology, and specialize in integrative psychotherapy and schema therapy (Schematherapist). <\/span><\/p>\n I work with adults on an individual basis using an integrative approach focusing on schema therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy. In addition, I offer group psychotherapy, both psychodynamic group psychotherapy and schema-focused group treatment. <\/span>When appropriate and relevant, I also use experiential and mindfulness-based methods. EMDR treatment is also offered if necessary.<\/p>\n I completed a bachelor’s degree in psychology and film studies, and a master’s degree in social-organizational psychology. I later completed another master’s degree in clinical psychology at Leiden University. I have gained experience in a variety of clinical settings. I regularly engage in continuing education and training. Alongside my clinical work, I have worked for several consultancy firms as an organizational psychologist, mostly focusing on NGOs.<\/p>\n I offer treatment in English, Dutch, and Hebrew.<\/p>\n In addition to my BIG registration as a psychotherapist, I am a registered group therapist with the NVGP (Dutch Association for Group Dynamics and Group Psychotherapy). I am also internationally trained and certified as a schema therapist with the ISST (International Society of Schema Therapy) and the VSt (Dutch Society for Schema Therapy). In Israel, I am a licensed psychologist registered with the Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/brightmindpractice.nl\/en\/practical-information\/” button_text=”Practical information” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”14px” button_text_color=”#FFFFFF” button_bg_color=”#1CA0A1″ button_border_width=”2px” button_border_radius=”4px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/brightmindpractice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Roy-Kamienchik.webp” alt=”Roy Kamienchik” title_text=”Roy Kamienchik” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” box_shadow_style=”preset4″ box_shadow_horizontal=”24px” box_shadow_vertical=”24px” box_shadow_color=”RGBA(28,160,161,0.75)” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Together, we work to create a personalized and collaborative therapeutic space. My aim is for you to feel understood and validated, and to be challenged when that supports the changes you wish to make. I see it as essential that you bring your own language and perspectives into the work of healing, coping with difficulties, and further development.<\/span><\/p>\n I support people in developing greater emotional awareness and deeper insight into their hardships, suffering, and recurring patterns of thinking and behavior, through a closer connection with their feelings and underlying needs.<\/span><\/p>\n My integrative approach is informed by continuous training and clinical experience, as well as by interests such as art, philosophy, and nature. I draw on these to support how I relate to clients and to engage with the complexity of human experience.<\/span><\/p>\n I wish you a meaningful and fruitful therapeutic process.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" About me Hello, My name is Roy and I am a psychotherapist BIG.
