Dagmar Timmers serves as a Lecturer at Tilburg University within the Tilburg School of Social and Behavioral Sciences, Department of Cognitive Neuropsychology. She simultaneously operates as a registered General Health Psychologist through her founded organizations: Psychologen Praktijk Timmers (clinical practice since 2007), Stichting Kumbaya, and Ontzorgt!.
Her research centers on brain development trajectories from childhood to adulthood, with specialized focus on parental influences in child development. As an early adopter of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in the Netherlands, she pioneers neuromodulation treatments for severe, treatment-resistant Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), creating direct bridges between academic research and clinical application.
Her clinical work spans four physical locations across Oosterhout, Raamsdonksveer, Geertruidenberg, and Terheijden, maintaining exceptional patient satisfaction (9.0/10 rating). She implements innovative approaches like combining science with sports in treatment frameworks and continues care post-therapy through Ontzorgt! partnerships.
Key collaborations include:
- Stichting Kumbaya: Supported housing for youth 18-23 transitioning to independence
- Stichting Het Vergeten Kind: School-based 'Climate of Attention' mental health programs
- Municipal partnerships: Streamlining community mental health service delivery
Her work demonstrates consistent integration of developmental psychology research into practical mental health solutions across clinical, educational, and community settings.
