A healer does not heal you. A healer is someone who holds space for you while you awaken your inner healer, so that you may heal yourself.
— Maryam Hasnaa

Welcome To IRIS HOLISM, A Practice For Holistic Guidance.

In my holistic practice, the central belief is that there is fundamentally nothing wrong with you. I see you as a unique person, with your own story and your place in this world. My role is not to "fix" anything, but to stand beside you and create a safe space in which you can fully embrace yourself as you are now —without suppressing parts of yourself or becoming overwhelmed by them. Together, we create space for valuable insights that contribute to a renewed connection with your own wisdom.

During the sessions we deepen the connection with your body and work on increasing the capacity of your nervous system. This increases your (body) awareness and gives you more insight into how your nervous system, beliefs, patterns, and internal parts influence each other. Everything we have (unconsciously) taught ourselves originally had a protective function. Our beliefs, patterns, and intense emotions are often the expression of internal parts that fulfill different roles and functions. By understanding this, you can learn to integrate these parts into your life in a supportive way integrate, thereby developing a deeper understanding of yourself and develop self-compassion. With the help of systemic work, we can explore dynamics in relationships .

This process activates your body's self-healing capacity, creating space to process trapped emotions, heal trauma, better sense boundaries, transform survival patterns, and reduce physical complaints.

From this space, you can increasingly root more firmly in your own foundation, which is essential to fully embrace being human—with everything that comes with it. I offer you practical tools so that you can navigate the challenges and changes that this wonderful life brings with more confidence. The most important thing is that you (re)discover your own strength and discover how you can move through life in your own unique way from that foundation.

In my practice, I combine various approaches that psychology, energetic bodywork, and spirituality in a meaningful way. Together, we explore which methods best suit your needs, tailored to the moment and at your own pace.

I also received several Spinal NRGY sessions. Overall, I found Iris's treatments to be very beneficial. Complete relaxation and tranquility were ultimately the feelings that prevailed for me. Her care and attention are remarkable and ensure a high-quality experience."

    - Annette

  • "A particularly emotional experience, which allowed me to see things from a different perspective with the help of the body-oriented energy session. I hadn't realized beforehand that it would be such a special experience. Iris provided a safe environment where everything was allowed to be."

    - Sofie

    - Saar

  • “I asked Iris if she could design a tattoo that she felt would suit me. When she shared the design and explanation with me, it immediately appealed to me and I could identify with it. On the day of the ceremony, Iris started with an energetic session that allowed me to relax completely. During this session, I was able to visualize and feel that the chosen tattoo suited me, which felt really good. Getting the tattoo done was just as relaxing. I experienced no pain at all and was therefore able to remain in the wonderfully relaxed energy that was present. I found this method of handpoke tattooing to be fantastic and it cannot be compared to 'standard' tattooing. This ritual had a real feeling and positive energy that I had never experienced before. And the result is beautiful. Now that I have this tattoo, I look at it and wear it with pride; it belongs to me. Thank you, Iris!"

    - Rudy

  • “When Iris showed me the butterfly she had drawn, I knew that this was the one. It immediately felt right. Iris understood me perfectly, and the design was finished in no time. Before she started tattooing, she performed a ritual, which was truly special and magical. I felt very comfortable and relaxed. I felt very connected, safe, and secure. The tattooing went smoothly, and Iris did it very professionally. I enjoy my beautiful butterfly every day and am incredibly happy with it! Iris, thank you so much for this wonderful and beautiful experience!"

    - Marjolein

  • “I am very happy and grateful for the beautiful tattoo Iris gave me. Ever since she started her handpoke art, I had a strong feeling that I wanted to get a tattoo from her. I had been thinking for a long time about a tattoo that would symbolize my life as a dancer. The handpoke technique feels very different from the machine, much softer, and I am incredibly grateful and happy with the result. I would recommend everyone to get a handpoke tattoo from Iris, because she works in a very personal and unique way. The result will always be a beautiful and fitting piece of art."
