Who is Simon?

Simon Anemaet

I am Simon Anemaet, husband to Karine and father. I have a Dutch LVPW-certificate as a psychosocial therapist, and work with Selah Counseling. I work with adults (men and women), adolescents, and children. I also offer relationship therapy together with Karine.

I completed my studies in psychosocial therapy at ‘De Roos Opleidingen’. Since 2015 I have practiced independently with Yonah Talent, a counseling service for gifted children.

My identity is founded in Jesus Christ, as revealed by God in the Bible. This identity expresses itself in a Christian way of viewing human vulnerability, the integration of faith and therapy and if necessary, an integrated approach to therapy and pastoral care. 

I experience the tensions, difficulties and burdens people carry. I see how God cares for them and see it as my calling to walk with them. In my personal life I have experienced deep suffering, among other things because of serious illness in the family. I want to walk with people in an attitude of vulnerability and openness to what they want to share. In this way I want to create a space for rest and reflection so people can start living again.
