Welcome on the site of "The Red Pearl", Practice for body-oriented therapy
My name is Maya Schrier-Kerstan. Since 1990, I’ve worked as a body-oriented and creative psychotherapist. This type of therapy treats the whole person: the body, emotions and the mind.
I began as a physicist (at the Humboldt University Berlin in East Germany).
When I came to Holland in 1982, I was completely out of balance. Therefore, I became interested in therapy courses to heal myself in the first place. Eventually I realised that working with people is my through calling. I did trainings for creative psycho synthesis, Body&Mind Integration and Sexual Grounding®.
Trough these different studies I specialised in Energetic Integration, Sexual Grounding® and womens health.
I work in individual sessions, with couples and with groups. Furthermore, I'm certified to give Sexual Grounding® Trainings.
I like to accompany people on their way to relaxation, authenticity and emotional maturity.
To arrive there, we work on different levels. To overcome physical and psychological blocks we first return to the place where these developed – mostly in the early childhood. When we become conscious about what was so painful and which convictions we developed at this early stage and express that, we actually bring up pearls from our unconscious. These pearls seem to be qualities that show who we really are and what we deeply desire. When we use these qualities and follow our original desires, joy and creativity can return into our life.
I'm married with Piet for more than 30 years and together we have 2 sons and 2 grandchildren.
Methods that I draw from:
- Breath- and bodywork
- psychodrama, Gestalt
- contact exercices, PI-strokes, cranio sacral techniques
