Dominik Sieh was born in Southwest Germany and emigrated to the Netherlands (2001) for his civil service in a refugee community.
He studied at University Paris Cité, University of Toronto & University of Amsterdam, resulting in a MSc in clinical psychology with honors (2007). In 2012, he attained a university teaching qualification (BKO) & a certificate as systemic therapist. His PhD on the impact of parental illness on children generated the Screening Instrument for Adolescents of Parents with Chronic Medical Condition (SIAPCMC), which can identify adolescents at risk for internalizing problems.
Over the last decade his focus has been on contract management and moves to secretary of the executive & supervisory board of one of the largest mental healthcare institutions in The Netherlands. He has a passion for languages and speaks fluent German, Dutch, English, Spanish & French.
