About me


“Good therapy is a partnership: your experience, my expertise, and an open mind.”

Welcome! My name is Sanne van Dijken, I am an English- and Dutch speaking psychologist based in Zürich and offer online therapy. I grew up and studied in Groningen, a charming city in the north of the Netherlands. There, I earned my Bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and English Language & Culture, as well as my Master’s degree in Developmental Psychology. I have experience working as a psychologist in both clinical and child and adolescent psychology.

In my belief, therapy works best when it’s a true collaboration, so your input matters every step of the way. Openness and honesty help us shape a process that fits you, so I encourage you to share what feels helpful and what doesn’t. Together, we’ll adjust and grow to find what works best for you.

If you’re considering asking for help, I’m here for you. You don’t have to have everything figured out to get started. No matter your reason for seeking support, whether things feel too much, not enough or just unclear, you’re welcome here.

Important: I offer an inclusive, LGBTQIA+ friendly space where everyone is welcome just as they are.
