Tessa is an experienced Dutch and English speaking psychologist, holistic coach, relaxation specialist and emotional release facilitator in Amsterdam.
She has lived the expat-life many years ago in New Delhi, India and eversince her return to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, she has always found herself naturally surrounded by an international group of people. That’s why she’s very comfortable meeting with expats from many different nationalities in her practice space.
She started her practice in 2009 and her approach is based on the knowledge she has gained through her holistic studies and various supplementary trainings, her well-developed intuition and life-experience. She offers a non-conventional type of therapy through conversation combined with various body-oriented and creative exercises, mindfulness, active meditations and emotional release. By connecting with your body, your subconscious mind, your sensitivity, intuition and creativity, you’ll tap into places in yourself that are supporting your healing.
During these sessions you are viewed from a holistic perspective which means all aspects of life and living are taken into account and you are regarded as being a ‘whole’ – even if some parts of you may seem lost or out of balance.
It is Tessa’s mission to help you face the things that challenge you with loving curiosity, find clarity and insight about what is actually happening to you; help you see what makes you suffer and help bring yourself back to your natural expression which is relaxed, open and grounded.
Working with Tessa means you are ready for a change or deepening. It means you are ready to take responsibility and open to understanding and healing your difficulties and wounds.

– Being yourself: (rediscovering your natural self confidence, natural relaxation in being yourself, living authentically)
