He studied medicine in Maastricht and later got his education in psychiatry and psychotherapy at Amsterdam. He was director of 113 and acting physician-director of GGZingeest where he also dealt with suicide prevention and patient safety. He was an honorary member of the Dutch Association for Psychiatry (Dutch: Nederlandse Vereniging voor Psychiatrie). He tried to lift the taboo around talking about suicide and suicidal thoughts.
