Sophrology in Amsterdam
Sophrologist in Amsterdam.
Individual mind-body support in English and French, grounded in conscious breath, dynamic relaxation, gentle movement and lived sensation.
A practical method
Come back to what your body already knows.
Sophrology brings body, breath and mind back into conversation.
Created in 1960 by Colombian neuropsychiatrist Alfonso Caycedo, sophrology offers a structured way to observe your experience, ease accumulated pressure and develop inner resources you can use beyond the session.
Laurine Karrer is a certified sophrologist trained over three years with Sophrocap. Her approach is informed by clinical support, float sessions, bodywork and her own lived understanding of nervous-system regulation across change and different cultural environments.

For life in Amsterdam
When your mind keeps going, but your body asks you to slow down.
This work is particularly relevant for professionals, entrepreneurs, creatives and internationals navigating a demanding rhythm, cultural change or a personal transition.
You may arrive feeling stressed, mentally crowded, emotionally overloaded, disconnected from your body or unable to fully rest. Sophrology does not ask you to force a positive mindset. It gives you concrete ways to work with breath, sensation, movement and attention so that regulation becomes something you can practise—not simply understand.
Sessions are available in Amsterdam and online, in English or French.
