I am a Dutch medical doctor and NLP practitioner and this winter I am going to be in Aswan for three months from the beginning of December till the start of March 2003. The reason is that in my home country The Netherlands it is in that period time of the year too wet and cold. I like Egypt and I have borrowed an apartment in Aswan for that period. I will be available in this period for people to consult me in my capacity as a therapist. I can talk with people who speak Dutch, English, French and German. If somebody is not fluent in one of these languages there should be somebody present who is able to serve as an interpreter.

At this moment I am mostly interested to treat a phobic response of people: afraid to go to the dentist, afraid of men, afraid of women, afraid of the street, afraid to fly, afraid of spiders, of snakes, of cows or of camels. But also I am willing to talk about a medical problem if the physician cannot do sufficiently, in the opinion of the person treated. I do not (I repeat: not) treat people who do not want to go to normal, medical doctors. I will help people get over their fear of doctors but I do not practice medicine in Egypt, although I am licensed to do so in Europe. In my opinion, all diseases have a psychological origin somewhere. Often physicians disregard that side and treat only the disease and not the human being. I am always willing to supply that missing aspect.
