My name is Alain Nicolini, and I am a psychiatrist based in Amsterdam. I provide psychiatric assessment, psychotherapy, and medication management for adults.

I studied medicine and completed my psychiatric training at KU Leuven in Belgium. Throughout my training and clinical career in both Belgium and the Netherlands, I have worked in university hospitals, specialist outpatient clinics, crisis psychiatry, inpatient wards, liaison psychiatry, addiction services, and community mental healthcare. This broad clinical experience has allowed me to work with people experiencing a wide range of conditions, including anxiety and mood disorders, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, personality disorders, trauma-related difficulties, psychotic disorders, and complex psychiatric presentations.

Alongside my medical specialization, I completed advanced postgraduate training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and Schema Therapy, as well as additional training in EMDR. This enables me to integrate psychotherapy and psychiatry, offering treatment that goes beyond symptom reduction to address the underlying emotional and relational patterns that contribute to psychological distress.

I believe that effective psychiatric care combines scientific evidence with genuine curiosity and a collaborative therapeutic relationship. My goal is to help people gain a deeper understanding of themselves while working towards meaningful and lasting change.
