I am responsible for the Internship coordination for master students of Clinical Neuropsychology. My courses at the University of Amsterdam focus on Neuropsychological assessment and Psychometrics. I also work as a clinical neuropsychologist at WPEX, where neuropsychological and psychiatric assessments are my main task.
