About
Drs Anky Aarts
MPsy, IFS, SEP, ISP, EMDR, IoPT, CCPT-II
Anky is a systemic therapist who has been working with Nature of Mind practices for over four decades.
In addition, she found a calling with Systemic Constellations, IFS, EMDR, and Somatic psycho-therapeutic modalities. Her focus on subtle body communication is therefore infused with psycho-biological principles of attachment and trauma.
She holds a Doctorandus degree in Philosophy, and a Master of Science degree in Psychology. She is a certified practitioner of Internal Family Systems, Integral Somatic Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, and EMDR.
She has worked in this field for more than four decades. She found her calling with Systemic Constellations, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Psychotherapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR).
She draws from these traditions to facilitate subtle psychic movements to shift dysfunctional coping habits towards new possibilities with more authentic self ‘on board.’ These movements allow the autonomic nervous system to come back ‘home,’ and enables the rediscovery of inner peace and chuckles again.
