Judith Flisijn

My name is Judith Flisijn-Tonk. Since 1999 I started my own practice with Craniosacral therapy.

Gradually, I specialized in body-centered trauma therapy. I am grateful for the experiences I brought with me from creative therapy. The children I encountered there amazed and strengthened me in my belief that a human being has access to tremendous resilience and creativity. This makes it clear that working with trauma does not have to be tough. It can be playful and go hand in hand with a good dose of humor.

What can you expect from the sessions I give ?
Our bodies know pain but when pain recurs repeatedly or concentration becomes difficult, fatigue persists or anxiety dominates then it is time to raise the alarm. Finding rest and relaxation is then not possible. Your nervous system then becomes overstimulated and revs too much, causing you to become unbalanced and exhausted.

I focus on treating the psychological or physical symptoms with the goal of creating balance in the body. You will learn step by step to experience and name what is happening in your body. Through this path, awareness about feeling, thinking and acting arises. You get in touch with yourself creating space to deal with yourself and the outside world in a self-conscious way. By getting back in touch with yourself, it is possible for tucked away feelings and needs to surface. On the way to processing, pain, sadness and anger may be safely displayed. This is a combination between Cranio Sacral Therapy and Somatic Experiencing, but it depends on the situation and can vary from one treatment to another.

My strength in working with clients is: loving attention to you and the developmental process you are going through. I encourage you to allow and dare to be yourself as much as possible in the process toward healing or awareness, and I put you at ease which allows you to loosen up.

important to me is that it is not only about balance, but also the zest for life that is awakened in the client. This allows pleasure with oneself and enjoyment of and with the other to be part of the present again.
