Ms Anny Goldberg

Psychologist

An expat psychologist with extensive experience in various settings, populations and age ranges. I work with young adults, adolescents, children and their parents, helping them overcome their hardships and reach the happiest version of themselves.

About Me

As an expat psychologist, I offer a unique perspective for young adults, adolescents, children, and their parents. I understand the complexities of adapting to new cultures and overcoming personal hardships. We can explore your experiences together, finding clear paths to your happiest self. My extensive background across various settings helps guide families navigating change, supporting each member to thrive. Sessions aim to build resilience and foster genuine well-being.

Approach

Working with individuals and families, I guide conversations that balance understanding with practical steps, gently linking past experiences to present choices. Sessions in Amsterdam or online, in English or Hebrew, move at a steady, collaborative pace—focused yet flexible to suit children, teens and parents. We use clear assessments, explore patterns, try small experiments between meetings and build coping tools so changes feel manageable and lasting. This approach often helps people facing life transitions, cultural shifts, anxiety or parenting challenges.
