Yoga Therapy | Emotional Development | Jungian Coaching | Mindful Psychosomatic Healing
Do you feel stuck, angry, lost, or sad? Do you want to move forward, but don't know how or what is holding you back? Are you looking for the right tools to regain your self-confidence in body, mind, and soul? Are you ready to discover how to feel alive again in a natural, intuitive, and playful way? A path that restores your energy, strength, and purpose…
I work intuitively as well as scientifically and experientially to approach psychosomatic integration as wholistically as possible.
The health and Well of Being is about the integration of body, energy, emotions, mind, soul, spirit, and consciousness as a whole way of being. Also as part of our larger body; our social life, unconscious beliefs in relation to this often play a role in our insecurities and difficult feelings.
With over 15 years of experience as a therapist, based in The Hague, I help you move forward when you feel you have lost your self-confidence or connection with your body, mind, heart, soul, and life. I use tools from somatic experiencing through mindful yoga therapy and emotional awareness and development, Jungian depth psychology, Ayurveda, cognitive science, and internal family dynamics, to work with the whole person: physically, physiologically, emotionally, mentally, psychologically, socially, and spiritually, to get to the core of who you really are. Together, we examine the imbalances in your intake/impression/experience, processing, and exhaustion/expression on these layers.
Based on experience with pre-menopause, menopause, burnout, (postnatal) depression, intense emotions, mood swings and high stress, anxiety and panic attacks, complex trauma, eating patterns, low self-esteem, and self-confidence, I often understand your situation literally and viscerally, so the guidance towards wholeness takes place in a spirit of trust. During sessions there is room for advice and tools to help you continue on your own between sessions, so that practice continues outside of the practice ;)

Yogatherapie | Emotionele ontwikkeling | Jungiaanse coaching | Mindful Psychosomatische healing
Voel je je vastgelopen, boos, verloren of verdrietig? Wil je vooruit, maar weet je niet hoe of wat je tegenhoudt? Ben je op zoek naar de juiste tools om je zelfvertrouwen in lichaam, geest en ziel terug te winnen? Ben je klaar om te ontdekken hoe je je weer levendig kunt voelen op een natuurlijke, intuïtieve en speelse manier? Een pad dat je energie, kracht en doelgerichtheid teruggeeft…
Ik werk zowel intuïtief als wetenschappelijk en ervaringsgericht om psychosomatische integratie zo holistisch mogelijk te benaderen.
Het gezondheid en welzijn van het individu draait om de integratie van lichaam, energie, emoties, geest, ziel, spirit en bewustzijn als één geheel. Ook als onderdeel van ons grotere lichaam; ons sociale leven, spelen vaak een onbewuste overtuigingen in relatie daarmee een rol in onze onzekerheden en moeilijke gevoelens.
Met meer dan 15 jaar ervaring als therapeut, gevestigd in Den Haag, help ik je vooruit te komen wanneer je het gevoel hebt dat je je zelfvertrouwen of verbinding met lichaam, geest, hart, ziel en leven bent kwijtgeraakt. Ik gebruik tools van somatische experiencing door mindful yogatherapie en bewustwoording en ontwikkeling van emoties, Jungian depth psychologie, Ayurveda, cognitive wetenschap, internal family dynamieken om met de hele mens te werken: fysiek, fysiologisch, emotioneel, mentaal, psychologisch, sociaal en spiritueel, om tot de kern te komen. Samen kijken wij naar de disbalans van jouw intake/indruk/ervaring, verwerking en uitput/expressie op deze lagen.
Vanuit ervaring met pre-menopauze, menopauze, burnouts, (postnatal) depressie, heftige emoties, stemmingswisselingen en spanningsklachten, angst- en paniekaanvallen, complexe trauma, eet patronen, lage- zelfbeeld en zelfvertrouwen begrijp ik letterlijk en lichamelijk vaak jouw situatie, waardoor het begeleiden naar heel in vertrouwen kan gebeuren.
Tijdens sessies is er ruimte voor advies en tools om zelf verder te kunnen tussen de sessies door zodat de praktijk doorgaat buiten het praktijk ;)
Als er nog vragen zijn mail mij gerust met een berichtje of in de contact formulier.
Much Love,
Shira

Specialisations and Expertises
Burnout, anxiety, complex trauma and depression are my specialisation;working both topdown as bottom up we work with body, hormones, mind, heart and soul.
For some this is achieved in 5-6 sessions, for others it can take 20 sessions.
Sometimes we seem to not be going anywhere, and then all of a sudden it all comes together.
With all the above, I look at what is most acute and slowly arrive at healing the complex and chronic, all through the lens of our physical, emotional, energetic, mental, psychological and soulful selves. Then together we look at how can we come back to wholeness. Where and why did you fragment parts of yourself and how can we rediscover and reintegrate them.
