Bureau GO

What Bureau GO does

Bureau GO is a private solo therapeutic practice based in Utrecht, Netherlands, founded in 2017 by Leida Dorrestijn. It delivers integrative coaching, counseling, and therapy to individual adults, parents, couples, and families dealing with life transitions, stress, burnout, grief, relationship strain, and parenting challenges, organized around two flagship focus areas branded as 'Grip op: je leven' (Grip on: Your Life) and 'Grip op: opvoeden' (Grip on: Parenting). Services use an integrative methodology combining experience, emotions, physical sensations, thoughts, and behavioral impact with a solution-focused, short-term orientation, drawing on Dorrestijn's credentials as a dramatherapist, family therapist, autism coach, and integrative counselor. The practice is registered with five Dutch healthcare bodies (NFG, SKJ, Koepel NAP, Vektis, KvK), enabling partial reimbursement under insurer code 9000 / performance code 24504, and holds GDPR/AVG-compliant client data handling.

The core offering comprises three session types: an intake interview of 60–75 minutes at €93, individual follow-up sessions of 60 minutes at €93, and partner/family sessions of 60 minutes at €126, all-inclusive of VAT, with a €15 evening surcharge and a complimentary 15-minute introductory meeting. Sessions are delivered in person at the practice's distinctive office in the monumentale voormalige gevangenis Wolvenplein (Wolvenplein 25, Utrecht) and remotely via video calling at parity pricing. The business is bootstrapped, operates without external funding, subsidiaries, or partners beyond a directory listing on vind-een-therapeut.nl, and runs with 1–10 employees, effectively functioning as a one-practitioner model with the founder also working as an autism coach at Boba Zorg. GTM is direct-to-consumer via blog content, directory presence, email, WhatsApp, and phone, with no paid advertising or B2B channels detected.

Broad incumbents

• PsyQ: Part of the Dutch Parnassia Group, PsyQ operates outpatient mental health clinics across the Netherlands treating common psychological conditions; overlaps with Bureau GO's outpatient counseling focus but operates as an institutional provider.
• Mentaal Beter: Largest Dutch chain of mental health treatment centers providing outpatient psychological care for depression, anxiety, and life issues; competes for the same general outpatient therapy demand but at much greater scale.
• Indigo: Dutch organization for mental health and prevention offering outpatient counseling, training, and prevention programs; competes for the same general Dutch consumer seeking support for life and parenting challenges.
• Vincent van Gogh Instituut: Dutch mental health institution providing outpatient psychological and psychiatric care, particularly in the southern Netherlands; serves the same outpatient mental-health market at larger institutional scale.

Others

• 113 Zelfmoordpreventie: Dutch national suicide prevention helpline and mental-health support organization; not a direct competitor but addresses overlapping crisis and life-balance needs in the Dutch mental health ecosystem.

• OpenUp: Dutch online mental health platform offering 1:1 sessions with psychologists and coaches for stress, life events, and personal challenges — directly competing with Bureau GO's coaching/counseling model in the Netherlands, with much broader distribution via employer contracts.

Emerging players
