Support for mothers

Gentle, holistic support during the intense years of motherhood

Motherhood can be beautiful, meaningful and deeply transformative.

It can also be overwhelming.

You may feel exhausted or overstimulated. You may be struggling with sleep. You may be carrying a difficult experience from pregnancy, birth or the postpartum period. Or you may feel the need to pause and honour an important transition in your life as a mother.

At my practice in Wassenaar, I offer gentle, holistic support for mothers who want to feel more rested, grounded and connected to themselves again

My Services

Rest, recovery and sleep
US$ 0,00

For mothers dealing with sleep problems, exhaustion and overstimulation.

In this short trajectory, we look at where the balance in your life has shifted and what you need to feel more rested, steady and energised again.

Depending on your situation, we may work with CBT-I, body-oriented exercises, polarity therapy, reflection and practical tools.

4 sessions of 90 minutes — €395

Ritual session for motherhood milestones
US$ 0,00

A personal ritual session for mothers who want to consciously pause at an important transition or milestone.

This may be the end of your postpartum period, the end of breastfeeding, your child’s first birthday, returning to work after leave, or another meaningful moment in your life as a mother.

A ritual session is not about fixing a problem. It is a gentle, personal moment to honour, celebrate, release or complete something that deserves your attention.

2 hours — introductory price €149

Processing pregnancy, birth and postpartum experiences
US$ 0,00

For mothers who look back on pregnancy, birth or the postpartum period with pain, sadness, fear or disappointment.

Some experiences leave more of an imprint than you expected. You may know that the event is over, but still feel that certain memories carry emotional charge.

In this short trajectory, we work with a combination of EMDR, body-oriented work and polarity therapy to reduce the emotional intensity of difficult memories and help you look back with more calm.

3 sessions — €350
First session: 120 minutes
Follow-up sessions: 90 minutes

About Esther

I am Esther Berlie, mother of two boys and founder of Praktijk voor Moeders in Wassenaar. I combine evidence-based methods such as CBT-I and EMDR with body-oriented and holistic work, including polarity therapy.

I believe mothers do not struggle because they are doing something wrong.

The early years of motherhood ask a lot from women. It is not surprising that many mothers feel exhausted, overstimulated or a little disconnected from themselves.

In my practice, I help mothers restore balance step by step. Not by trying even harder, but by creating space for rest, reflection, processing and recovery.
