What started as a solo adventure hiking the Camino de Santiago unexpectedly led me to my partner, and eventually to swapping the flat Dutch landscape for life among the Swiss mountains.

Hi, my name is Sanne van Dijken and I’m a Dutch- and English-speaking psychologist living in Zürich. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are navigating challenges like anxiety, neurodiversity, emotional overwhelm, low self-esteem, and study related struggles.

I grew up and studied in Groningen, a vibrant city in the north of the Netherlands. There, I earned Bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and finished my Masters study. I believe in combining research-based insights into therapy while tailoring the approach to your needs.

Outside of work, you’ll most likely find me with a book in one hand, and a cup of coffee in the other. When I’m not reading, I like doing yoga, going for runs along the lake of Zürich or hiking in the mountains. Besides that, I love being creative, listening to a good podcast or my favorite music.
