Leonie Louise

I offer a heart-based approach to Tantra. I believe that through a deep relaxed connection with ourselves, we can then connect to others in an intimate, authentic way.

I’m an experienced psychologist in the clinical field and in the last 10 years I have been studying and practicing Tantra, Breathwork, Yoga and Traditional Chinese Medicine. I love to work with the ancient wisdom of the East coupled with the rational logic of the West.

In 2008 together with other therapists, I started a psychology practice in Amsterdam. Combining traditional therapy with yoga, breathing, and meditation techniques. Through this combination in treatments for PTSD, depression, and anxiety disorders, I have been guiding people to heal and re-balance.
