The strength of this approach lies in the systems perspective: the realization that no one exists in isolation. We are all part of systems, such as our family of origin, a partner, or other important connections.<\/p><p>Tensions and pain often arise not from one person alone, but from the interplay between people. Therefore, we look not only at you, but also at how you react to each other, which patterns repeat themselves, and how old pain sometimes resonates in the present.<\/p><p>Our therapists are highly trained and registered with the NVRG (Dutch Association of Psychotherapists) or professionally trained within our own practice. Together, we share one vision: building loving, lasting relationships in the here and now and for future generations. And change occurs when the mind, heart, and body connect. Insight (mind) is important, but only when emotions are felt (heart) and the body can relax (body) does space arise for genuine, lasting connection.<\/p><p>When treatment is aimed at treating or preventing mental health issues, our services are exempt from VAT for personal healthcare.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-832c8b7\" data-id=\"832c8b7\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-07365ba elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"07365ba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Our approach to sustainable relationships<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f1d030e elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f1d030e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We specialize in relationships, love, and the patterns that connect you or drive you apart.

It means reflecting on the underlying patterns that keep you stuck in the same conflicts or silences. By making these dynamics visible and breaking through them together, you create space for greater connection, understanding, and safety.<\/p><p>Our therapy focuses not only on strengthening relationships but also on supporting psychological well-being. When stress, anxiety, attachment pain, or trauma are present, we work together on recovery, processing, and increasing resilience, control, and self-confidence. This creates healing not only in your relationship but also in your individual lives.<\/p><p>Our goal is to restore, strengthen, or, where necessary, release relationships with respect. In this way, we build love that is strong enough to grow with, now and in the future. Love that is not only tangible today but also endures for generations to come.<\/p><p>If you have a question, please fill out the contact form or schedule an appointment directly through our <strong><a style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\" href=\"https:\/\/www.praktijkdeliefde.com\/en\/making-an-appointment\/\">booking system<\/a><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\">.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1e6a153 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1e6a153\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f3fe844\" data-id=\"f3fe844\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-71e0938 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"71e0938\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-682x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-45435\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-768x1154.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-1022x1536.jpg 1022w, https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-1363x2048.jpg 1363w, https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-600x901.jpg 600w, https:\/\/oud.praktijkdeliefde.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Joey20-20Uit20je20liefdesdip-scaled.jpg 1704w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-07f759d\" data-id=\"07f759d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-31d7905 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"31d7905\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-b8aa14f\" data-id=\"b8aa14f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cb20025 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cb20025\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What makes us different from other practices?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8a2ae5f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8a2ae5f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>At Praktijk de Liefde, we believe that strong relationships are at the heart of well-being, happiness, and personal growth, whether it&#8217;s with your partner, ex-partner, colleague, or yourself.
