Care that understands you
Mavera GGZ offers mental health care in Rotterdam, with personal attention, cultural sensitivity and evidence-based treatment.
WHAT DOES "MAVERA" MEAN?
What does "Mavera" mean?
The name Mavera comes from the Arabic and Turkish word for "beyond" or "that which lies beyond". It refers to looking further than the obvious, searching for what lies behind symptoms and behaviour.
This philosophy is central to everything we do. We do not only treat symptoms; we look at the person behind the complaint, at their life story, context and possibilities.
Mavera GGZ was founded in Rotterdam with the conviction that high-quality mental health care should be accessible to everyone, regardless of language or cultural background.

Our Mission
Mavera GGZ's mission is to provide accessible, high-quality mental health care in which the person always comes first.
We combine evidence-based treatment methods with genuine personal attention and cultural sensitivity. We believe everyone deserves care that truly fits them.
Our Vision
Every person is unique. Psychological complaints never exist in isolation from someone's life story, culture and social context. Effective treatment must take this into account.
We strive for a future in which language and cultural barriers no longer stand in the way of receiving good mental health care. Our multilingual team makes this possible every day.
Our Core Values
Accessibility
Good mental health care should be available to everyone. We offer care in 7 languages and maintain short waiting times.
Quality
Our team consists of basic psychologists, GZ-psychologen (health psychologists), psychotherapists, doctors and psychiatrists. We work evidence-based and keep our knowledge up to date through peer consultation and continuing professional development.
Personal attention
You are not a number. We take the time to understand your unique story and tailor treatment accordingly.
Cultural sensitivity
We understand that cultural background shapes how psychological distress is experienced and expressed. This understanding is embedded in our care.
Transparency
You always know where you stand. We communicate clearly about treatment, costs and your rights as a client.
Collaboration
Good care is teamwork. We collaborate multidisciplinarily within our practice and maintain an intensive network with healthcare professionals and partner organisations.
