A familiar face, not a waiting-room feeling

At Psycholoog Noordwijk you work with a small, dedicated team. You are not a number — you receive genuine attention and an approach that fits you.

Who you'll meet

Merel Hovestad and Miriam Streur work from warmth and trust, each with their own specialisms.

Merel Hovestad MSc

Psychologist & founder

Early on I knew that inspiring others is an important life mission. My passion lies in sharing knowledge, where you choose which elements suit you to overcome personal blocks. Nature is an important part of my life: in 2010 I travelled around the world, which inspired me to connect with people in a fresh way, to support them and give direction.

Being able to see possibilities to move forward again — that is the challenge.

Specialisms

Smarttapping & EFT
Stress & burnout
Coaching
Online therapy
Walking therapy

Miriam Streur MSc

Therapist & parenting specialist

Hi, I'm Miriam. Together with my husband and two children I live in Noordwijk by the sea, and I love to surf. The sea gives me balance and flow and brings me closer to myself. My mission is to help you live from love and trust. In therapy I work with different methods and look at you and what you need, so that you learn to surf the waves of life in your own unique way.

You can't stop the waves, but you can learn how to surf.

Specialisms

Couples therapy
EFT
Children & parenting
Anxiety & low mood
