How therapists use this Blueprint in their sessions
This therapy blueprint was developed by the Dutch therapist, Ferdinand Bijzet. He runs his own relationship practice and also owns a national training institute. Across the Netherlands, more than 50 therapists use the Dutch version of this programme. Discover below how they incorporate this programme into their practices.

A young couple faced challenges when the husband’s sex/porn addiction came to light. With support from S.A.M.E.N. (Dutch version of this programme) and counselling sessions, they learned to communicate about their pain, frustrations and desires. They are currently expecting their first child, and though they continue to work through challenges, their bond has been strengthened. The husband was deeply moved when his wife expressed the depth of the love she feels for her husband. Their commitment to therapy and the S.A.M.E.N. programme, along with regular get-togethers with their respective buddies, has been transformative. As their therapist, the most rewarding feedback I received was: “You taught us to communicate, and now we continue that at home.

Guiding couples
“I assist couples using the (Dutch) S.A.M.E.N. programme, which acknowledges both partners and quickly turns their issues into a joint effort. The programme directs my approach as a therapist. While couples work independently, I offer support through regular check-ins, weekly in the beginning, and regulate the lessons according to the progress they make.”

Navigating on their own
My clients navigate the programme on their own, but I monitor their pace to ensure they don’t rush. I use the online structure and schedule intermittent sessions with them. Additionally, I integrate EFT into our sessions.
