-> On June 6, 2023, I attended a case study "Stalking" by the police in Zwolle. Here you can read some feedback from that afternoon.

​

"Thank you again for sharing your impressive story with us. It has been very well received by colleagues and has stirred up quite a bit of discussion.".
 

"A conclusion that we were able to draw from your story is that despite our daily burden, we must always be open without judgment to every new report that comes in. If we don't feel that space at that moment, we must immediately find another colleague who has room for this. In any case, ensure that the person is not sent away."
 

"We remain a learning organization and a story like yours helps enormously to address our blind spots. Thank you again for your time and story!!"

-> Last year I participated twice in a project called "Listening with open eyes". The first time was on April 10, 2023 in Doornroosje in Nijmegen, the second time was May 3, 2023,  on the Day of Forensic Care in Utrecht. 'Listening with open eyes' is an artistic investigation into psychological vulnerability. People who have suffered from psychological disorders, in themselves or a loved one, have made listening stories about this that can be experienced as a stage program at festivals, stages and symposia.
 

Six people who know or have known a psychological disorder, recently or long ago, in themselves or in a loved one, created in collaboration with writer and radio maker Corinne Heyrman a listening narrative. Six audio stories of 15 minutes in which confusion and clarification are mixed, in which - regardless of the diagnoses or terms - they are about people, people who have more sides than their condition. 'Listening with open eyes' assumes equal cooperation in which the interviewees have a say in both the process and the results. Click here if you want to listen to the podcast about my story.

-> On April 11, 2023, I made a presentation at the West Utrecht District Police. This was mainly about stalking, the attack and its consequences. A beautiful afternoon in which everyone present learned a lot from each other.
