Kindbehartigers Eindhoven

Kindbehartigers Eindhoven supports children aged 4 to 18 who are experiencing their parents’ separation or divorce. The organisation aims to become involved as early as possible in the process, offering children a trusted space to express and explore their feelings. Through listening and play, its practitioners help clarify each child’s experience, put it into perspective together, and explain what is happening in an age-appropriate way. They also communicate the child’s voice to their parents and provide room for the child’s grieving process.

Alongside its work with children, Kindbehartigers Eindhoven advises and supports parents. This includes guidance around telling children about the separation, understanding how children may experience their particular family situation, and helping parents support them through this period of change. The organisation is based in Eindhoven and is represented by Anja Peeters, Christel Colleij, Sanne van de Sande, and Anke Vliegenberg. Its approach centres on listening, trust, and making sure children are heard as families navigate separation.
