Jet Sichterman (Psycholoog NIP) has a MSc. in Child & Adolescent Psychology and was further trained in play-psychotherapy, cognitive behavour therapy, solution-focused therapy, systemic therapy and parent support. Jet is a member of the Dutch Association of Psychologists (Nederlands Instituut van Psychologen – NIP), registered as Psycholoog NIP and as Master level psychologist at the registry of professionals supporting children and young people (Stichting Kwaliteitsregister Jeugd: 130001181).
Between 2013 and 2023, Jet worked in and managed psychology practice Embracing Horizons (previously known as Expat Child Psychology) where she and her team supported international children and their families in The Hague navigating a variety of social and emotional challenges.
In 2018 and 2021 Jet became mother of her two sons. Becoming a mother made Jet much more aware and empathic of the struggles parents themselves face when they are worried for their child(ren), but also more aware of the (involuntary) influence parents often have on the problems of their children. Ambitious to learn more about how to support parents in their own journey with a child that struggles, while trying to find a good balance between her own work and family life, Jet decided to let go of her practice and seek further training and experience in systemic work, parent support and Infant Mental Health.
