Psychological complaints treated by iPractice

Everyone has an off day now and then, experiences anxious thoughts, or feels down. These feelings are only considered psychological complaints when they persist over a longer period. Psychological complaints negatively impact your daily life over time. They can manifest in different ways — emotionally, mentally, and physically. You don’t feel well, but you can’t quite put your finger on what’s wrong. We can help.

Blended Care

With our approach, you form a team with a consulting room psychologist for in-depth conversations, and an online psychologist for accessible contact and support.

Face to face conversations

For the 45-minute conversations, we will meet you at one of the iPractice locations or online. The consulting room psychologist will then take all the time to explore the depth with you.

Frequent online contact

In between the in-depth conversations, you maintain easy online contact with your online psychologist to share exercises and receive interim support.

Common symptoms

ADHD
Everyone has a day when your concentration is lacking and you are distracted by the slightest thing. Or one of those days when you feel energetic and take impulsive actions. After all, you’re human and every person shoots out to the left or right from time to time. These outliers are part of life. In fact, you could even say that these outliers color life. These periods when your focus is lacking or you have a lot of energy can be quite challenging for you. That doesn’t mean you are “deviating” or that there is more to it.
Anger attacks
Everyone experiences a tantrum from time to time. However, frequent anger attacks can become a problem for yourself or those around you, especially if they are accompanied by aggressive behavior. This article provides information to help you better understand how anger attacks occur and how to manage your anger and tantrums more effectively.
Anxiety Disorder
We all get scared sometimes. But what if those fears get in the way of your daily functioning? Read about what exactly an anxiety disorder is and how to recognize anxiety by its mental and physical symptoms.
Burn-out
Burnout is your body’s response to experiencing too much stress. Your physical and mental reserves are depleted because, for example, you’re experiencing a toxic situation at work. It could also be the result of having to care for a sick friend or family member, intense periods of study, or long-term financial concerns. Burnout is a very common problem. Millions of people suffer from burnout symptoms every year.   Read on to learn exactly what burnout is, how you can recognize it, and what the symptoms are. We’ll explain the causes and effects, as well as giving you some tips so that you can learn to manage it better.
Chronic worrying
We all worry. Some of us worry that we’re worrying too much. So, what exactly is chronic worrying? What does that even mean? Why do we keep repeating the same thoughts over and over again? In this article, you’ll find the answers to all these questions.
Depression
When you’re dealing with depression, you feel down, experience little pleasure, and often lack the motivation to do things. It can feel like everything is too much and that you’re on your own. These symptoms often last for weeks or even months. Depression can be mild, moderate, or severe, and in some cases, it may last for years. It’s important to take depression seriously. If you’re unsure or concerned, always reach out to your general practitioner or a psychologist.
Difficulty concentrating
Everyone knows one of those days when concentrating becomes more difficult. But, do you regularly struggle to concentrate and are easily distracted? Concentration problems can affect your daily life and work. Learn more about why you have trouble focusing and maintaining attention and what you can do about it.
Emotional exhaustion
Do you feel like you’re emotionally exhausted? It’s important to listen to your body to avoid making things worse, no matter how much you’ve got on your plate. What exactly does emotional exhaustion mean, what are the causes of emotional exhaustion, how can you recognize it in yourself and what can you do about it? This article has the answers.
Gender Dysphoria
A gender: we are all assigned one at birth. But maybe the gender you were born with doesn’t feel quite right. It doesn’t fit you. You wish to be of the opposite gender. Or you don’t identify at all with the binary genders of male or female. When your birth gender doesn’t match who you are, we call this gender dysphoria.
Grief
Grief has a range of causes, and it can be very intense. Although the grieving process is different for everybody, there are a few distinct phases that can be identified. How can you tell if you’re grieving? And what can you do to cope with it? Read on to learn more about grief and get advice from our psychologists.
Loneliness
We all experience loneliness every now and then. It’s not necessarily a problem if you feel lonely from time to time. Loneliness is a perception rather than a fact or a situation. You feel lonely because you’re lacking connection. You’re missing that close, emotional bond with others.
Negative self-image
A negative self-image can make you extremely insecure and be a real hindrance. Fortunately, a negative self-image is based on learned beliefs: Which means it’s possible to unlearn these things.
Perfectionism
Do you set the bar high, always striving to perform at your best and be the best? If you find it difficult to be satisfied and nothing ever feels good enough, you might be dealing with perfectionism. This relentless pursuit of perfection can take a toll on your inner peace, health, and happiness over time. It’s important to understand why you constantly feel the need to improve and to learn strategies to manage these feelings. Explore the reasons behind your perfectionism and discover what you can do to achieve a healthier balance.
PTSD
You have experienced a serious event, such as an accident or a traumatic experience. The long-term psychological injury following that event is called PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder).
Sense of purpose
What Gives Your Life Meaning? What is important to you in life, and how do you act upon it? A sense of purpose contributes to your enjoyment of life and your mental well-being.
Sleep problems
Everyone has a sleepless night sometimes. For hours you stare at the ceiling and just don’t fall asleep. If sleep symptoms persist then you may have a sleep problem.
Somatic Symptom Disorder
It is understandable to be frustrated when you experience physical symptoms without a clear cause being found. This can be an indication of somatic symptom disorder, and it can affect your daily activities. Fortunately, there are several ways to cope.
Stress
Stress literally means “tension” or “pressure.” There’s a difference between healthy stress, like before an exciting event, and unhealthy stress that lasts for a longer time. Stress symptoms can show up in your body, mind, behavior, or thoughts. Think of a rapid heartbeat, increased breathing, irritability, restlessness, trouble concentrating or sleeping, and turning to things like alcohol, drugs, or food. Persistent or chronic stress should be taken seriously. If you’re concerned, always consult your general practitioner or a psychologist.
Trauma
A trauma arises after a severe event. Memories keep intruding, and you suffer from anxious thoughts and flashbacks to the specific moment. Find more information about when you have a trauma, the possible causes, and what you can do if you have a trauma.
Types of anxiety disorder
There are several types of anxiety disorders. They can be distinguished by the different characteristics of each type. For example, the intensity of the anxiety symptoms, the underlying triggers and the duration of these symptoms; these are all factors that differ for each type of anxiety disorder.

My mental health is in the best place it’s ever been

“I was very happy with my experience at iPractice. I liked the combination of in person and online support. My therapists were professional and great at what they did. I’ve finished my treatment feeling like my mental health is in the best place it’s ever been.”

Professional and compassionate towards the patient

“Everything is arranged professionally here, and with compassion for the patient. From making an appointment (excellent, kind people on the phone) to the treatment itself (very knowledgeable therapist, coordinates pleasantly with the patient, expertise and empathy go hand in hand): everything is well arranged here. The waiting room is pleasant, the treatment rooms too. You feel at ease, get a cup of tea. The concept with the online therapist as a check-in moment and support and to discuss the more weekly impact of the therapy on daily life works very well (I was skeptical about that). If I needed therapy again, I would go to this practice again, but after 12 sessions I am currently much more confident and have the tools to continue on my own, without the support of a therapist. Thanks, iPractice!”

Good combination of online and practice

“Irene & Anna are great. I went into this quite skeptical but I have to honestly say that the combination of online and practice worked very well for me. They listened very well, both in practice and online. It was not an easy journey but the journey was made possible by both ladies. I will not say that I am completely there but certainly on the right track and I think/hope that I can finish the journey independently. I have received great tools. Thanks ladies!”

What if I’m not exactly sure what my issue is?

That’s completely normal. Many people experience psychological symptoms without knowing exactly what’s causing them. You don’t have to figure it out yourself. During the intake, we’ll work together to understand what’s going on and what suits you.

What if I don’t identify with one specific issue?

You don’t need to fit into one box. Maybe you’re experiencing tension and sadness, or racing thoughts and fatigue. Our treatments are tailored to your situation, not just to a label.

Can I register without a referral?

You can register with us without a referral, but a referral letter from your GP is required for reimbursement through basic health insurance.

How do I know if my symptoms are serious enough for therapy?

You don’t need to wait until things get worse. If your symptoms are affecting your daily life — at work, in relationships, or within yourself — that’s reason enough to seek help.

What happens after I register?

After your registration, we’ll schedule an intake. In this session, you’ll talk with a psychologist about your symptoms, your needs, and your goals. Based on that, we’ll create a treatment plan together.
