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.

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.

Over Welmoed Krist

Welmoed Krist is an educational psychologist and system therapist at iPractice. She likes to work psychotherapeutically and systemically, focusing on personal strength and increasing personal autonomy. Friendliness and transparency are values that she uses in the treatment relationship. She uses techniques from schema therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, but certainly also more broadly and with inspiration from her own experiences focused on meaning and identity.

Welmoed graduated in Pedagogical Sciences at the UvA. She followed the systems training and specialized in narrative therapy and EFT (emotionally focused therapy) at RINO Amsterdam and EFT Nederland.

At iPractice, you’ll have personal conversations and active support between sessions. That’s how we create lasting change, together.
