Wat is IFS?
Online Therapy:
Create More Calm, Connection and Inner Balance
Maybe you feel like you're always switched on.
Your mind never stops. You feel tension in your body. You keep ending up in the same patterns, despite understanding them intellectually.
You may be struggling with stress, burnout, anxiety, perfectionism, people pleasing, emotional eating or a constant sense of inner unrest.
You don't have to navigate this alone.
Through online therapy, I support you from the comfort and safety of your own home. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy and body-based approaches, we explore not only what's happening in your mind, but also what your body is trying to tell you.
Wherever you live in the Netherlands or in a different country, you are welcome.

My Approach:
IFS and Somatic Therapy
IFS helps us understand the different parts within you.
Examples include:
-
the perfectionist
-
the inner critic
-
the people pleaser
-
the anxious part
-
the part that always wants to stay in control
These parts often developed to protect you, even if their strategies are no longer serving you today.
More info on: What is IFS Therapy?
Your body holds experiences, emotions and patterns of stress.
Through greater body awareness, you can learn to:
-
recognize signals earlier
-
regulate stress and tension
-
feel more grounded
-
reconnect with your needs
-
develop greater self-trust
Sometimes the mind understands, but the body still holds on — because we can’t always think our way out of what we feel.
