EMPRYNT is developed by Dr. Maartje, designed to support neural rewiring and breaking dysfunctional patterns by combining clinical and neuropsychology techniques using a proprietary methodology.


Moving beyond traditional therapy, this work targets the brain and nervous system where patterns are formed and sustained.



EMPRYNT is a neuropsychology-based approach, developed by Dr. Maartje, designed to identify and rewire the underlying patterns driving your thoughts, emotions, and relationships at their root.

Moving beyond traditional therapy, this work targets the brain and nervous system where patterns are formed and sustained.


THE PATTERNS ARE NOT RANDOM


The way you think, feel, and relate was shaped long before you became aware of it.
These patterns are not personality traits—they are conditioned responses rooted in early neural and nervous system development.


Your brain began forming relational templates early in life—based on environment, attachment, and experience. These patterns continue to operate automatically, often outside conscious aw


Similarly, your emotional responses are not random—they are regulated by a nervous system trained to detect safety or threat. This is why you may feel calm in the wrong situations, and activated in the right ones.


Understanding your patterns doesn’t change them. Lasting change requires working directly with the brain and nervous system where these responses are stored and reinforced.



This is where EMPRYNT begins.

EMPRYNT is a collection of coaching and educational services designed by Dr. Maartje to support neural rewiring and break dysfunctional patterns by integrating clinical and neuropsychology techniques, and is the backbone of the successful AURA Rewire program.


Dr. Maartje created EMPRYNT because after years working in traditional therapy, she recognized that insight alone was not enough—lasting change happens in the brain and body, where patterns are formed.


Dr. Maartje earned her Master’s degree in Clinical Neuropsychology in 2008, after which she began her career as a clinical professional. By 2011, she became the head of an outpatient neuropsychology clinic, where she designed treatment programs, and a few years later, she led an outpatient clinic specializing in adult ADHD. With certifications in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), CBT for adult ADHD, schema-focused therapy, and EMDR, she has diagnosed and worked with clients experiencing personality disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, dementia, and traumatic brain injury. After moving to the United States, she pursued her PhD, applying brain science to the design of systems.


EMPRYNT stands for Empowering Pattern Reprogramming Yielding Neuropsychological Transformation, this methodology. It integrates principles from neuropsychology, clinical psychology, nervous system regulation, and pattern-based therapeutic models to work directly with the mechanisms that drive behavior—rather than only analyzing them.

The process focuses on:

  • Identifying core relational and emotional patterns

  • Understanding how they were formed

  • Rewiring them at the level of the brain and nervous system

This is what allows change to move from temporary insight to lasting transformation.





EMPRYNT vs. Traditional Therapy


Both approaches offer value. EMPRYNT builds on traditional therapeutic insight by extending the work into the brain and nervous system where patterns are maintained. There is absolutely a time and a place for traditional therapy, especially when communal support is lagging in e.g., time of grief.


EMPRYNT leverages to key components of neural patterning to support rewiring:

  • If you don't use it, you lose it. We have to put our (once functional) coping patterns down, so that we can work in the root and so that new patterns can inhabit the gap left.

  • Neurons that fire together wire together. In order for new patterns to wire, we have to practice them enough (neurons firing together) for these new pathways to wire together.

Results

Results vary based on individual effort

This work is for you if:


This is for you if



You are a woman or man who finds yourself in the same emotional cycles, despite trying all sorts of things. Maybe you can name your patterns or you think where they came from, and yet nothing changed. On the outside, you hold it together. On the inside, you are suffering from repetitive patterns. Maybe you keep attracting the same dynamics, losing yourself in relationships, or finding yourself shutting down or reacting in ways you don't fully understand. You are looking for something that actually works — and you are willing to do the real uncomfortable work to get there.

Right now, you might need insight, but more importantly, you want change. You are looking for something that actually works, and you are willing to do the real uncomfortable work to get there.

FAQ

How is this different from therapy?

Most forms of talk therapy focus on self-discovery and how to manage your thoughts and feelings. In EMPRYNT, your patterns are clarified immediately using scientifically validated questionnaires. While we do explore your thoughts and behaviors, we focus on the root cause of your patterns, along with building calibrated self-esteem through Jungian principles, and teaching you the skills and tools to effectively regulate your own emotions and nervous system. Finally, we honor that nobody is exempt from life, and thus teach you how to continue to do this yourself once the program ends.

Is this covered by insurance?

Dr. Maartje is not licensed in the United States, as a choice, to be able to deliver effective help to her clients. Her approach does not fit the box that insurance requires. Payment plans are however available.

What do sessions look like?

Sessions are one hour and individualized to your questions, patterns and concerns. But session 1 starts with uncovering the root of your patterns by talking through the results of your response to scientifically validated questionnaire(s). After this session, and every session thereafter, you receive homework to go in depth into pattern rewiring. You will be taught the skills and tools, that have to be practiced in between the sessions to truly see a difference in your life. These generally include emotion regulation, nervous system regulation, and finding your sacred ground. Because of how individualized the sessions are, how these exercises are refined for you may differ. In between sessions, you will receive unlimited text support from Dr. Maartje. This is a critical part of the program that supports the rewiring process: out of the old patterns, into the new patterns.
