Laurie Kemp, Relationship Therapist in Amsterdam Noord

Every relationship experiences friction and patterns that can get in the way. Sometimes, you lose each other in routine, distance, or conflict. In those moments, it helps to pause together and reflect on what’s really going on.

In our sessions, you as a couple are at the center. We explore what’s happening between you, how old patterns are playing a role, and what you long for. Together, we look for the right kind of support and practical tools. It takes courage to look honestly, express needs, and be vulnerable. We work towards a relationship with space for connection, differences, and playfulness – even when things are difficult. A relationship where pain is allowed, and love can deepen.

For me, safety, authenticity, and curiosity are the foundation. My style is gentle, open, and when needed, lovingly confrontational – with room for humor to lighten the load. 

Background

My approach is systemic and experiential. We’ll explore mind, heart, and body, drawing on methods such as Gestalt, somatic and emotional focusing, imagination, constellations, voice dialogue, and NLP. I also work extensively with themes like trauma, attachment, and breaking intergenerational patterns.

In addition to my work as a relationship therapist, I am training as an integrative psychotherapist in Antwerp. I offer sessions in both Dutch and English and work with people from a variety of cultures and backgrounds.
