About us
Hi everyone!
I’m Armandina Ramírez, a psychologist and founder of [Nutrimind.life](https://nutrimind.life), and I’m excited to welcome you to Amsterdam Mental Health!
This group is about creating a space where we can connect, share, and support each other to take care of our mental health. Life in Amsterdam can be beautiful but also full of challenges, especially when we are trying to find a balance between adapting to a new country, career pressures, social life and the stress of everyday life.
Why did I start this group?
I’ve always believed in the power of real, face-to-face connections. In a world where we spent so much of our time online, I wanted to create a community where we can meet in person, have meaningful conversations, and build connections that can inspire us.
Who is this group for?
Anyone who cares about their mental health and well-being! You can be an expat finding your way in a new city, a local who wants to connect with like-minded people, or someone curious about mental health, you’re welcome here :) You don’t need to be an expert—just come with an open mind and willingness to share and learn.
What can you expect?
We’ll host a variety of events, from casual meetups to talks and workshops focused on practical tools for managing stress, building resilience, and improving overall well-being. We want to create a supportive and inspiring community where we can all grow together.
I am really excited to meet you all and build this community together. Let’s make mental health a priority and have some fun along the way too!
Therapy & Support
This group is not a therapy session and is not a substitute for individual psychological treatment. It is a community space for connection, reflection, and shared learning.
If you feel that you would like more personal or deeper support, you can also book an individual therapy session with me here:

See you soon!

Description:
Winter is a season that can feel particularly heavy, especially emotionally.Low energy, lack of motivation, sadness, irritability, and self-criticism often show up during the darker months, and many people assume something is “wrong” with them.
This interactive, in-person meetup offers a compassionate and realistic perspective on winter mental health. Instead of forcing positivity or productivity, we will focus on understanding what’s happening emotionally and how to support yourself during winter.
What We’ll Explore:
✅ Winter blues vs. depression: what’s normal and what needs attention
✅ Why winter affects mood, energy, and motivation (and why it’s not your fault)
✅ How to lower self-criticism and increase self-compassion in winterDetails You Need to Know:
