about me
Voor mensen die vastlopen in stress, snel overprikkeld raken of veel spanning ervaren, en merken dat het lastig is om echt tot rust te komen.
My story
My name is Olga Brakkee; I was born and brought up in Amsterdam. I am a mother of two and the founder of Hartmonie in Amsterdam North, where you can receive hypnotherapy, EMDR and sound therapy.
Drawing on more than 20 years’ experience in the healthcare sector and my work as a hypnotherapist, I support people who are struggling with stress, anxiety and recurring patterns. I work in a calm, attuned manner that integrates the mind, body and subconscious.
Why Hartmonie?
My journey took me from mainstream healthcare to a more holistic approach to counselling, through which I have come to realise that real change comes not only through insight, but also through processing and experiencing it in the body.
I draw on that experience in my practice, where I work with issues such as stress, trauma, loss, burnout, anxiety and mental overload. I use hypnosis, EMDR and sound as methods to create space for calm, healing and change.
What you can expect from me
A safe and peaceful space where you can slow down, tune into your feelings and reconnect with yourself. We work on breaking patterns and restoring inner balance, in a way that suits your pace and your needs.
A tailored, goal-oriented support programme in which we work towards greater peace of mind, a sense of control and emotional processing, with a focus on lasting change, whether through a structured programme or individual sessions.
What customers say:
The session with Olga gave me a tremendous amount of insight. I found it a wonderful experience to be able to go back in time so easily. Things I had forgotten turned out to have a major influence on how I manifest myself now. I think I got more out of that entire afternoon with Olga than a full course of therapy with a psychologist or coach. When I walked out the door, a few traumas had truly fallen away from me. I considered it a great gift to myself.

Olga has a beautiful energy. She is patient and well informed. The session to me went better than expected. She guided me effortlessly into a deep trance. Olga is fluent in English and this made the experience even better as I am an international.

Olga is very friendly and made me feel comfortable. She is very open and genuinely interested. She connected well with my questions and problems. I definitely recommend her! I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders after this hypnosis!
Johanna
The care with so much attention and love is therapeutic in itself, let alone the special encounter with yourself. I say just do it!
Marlous Engelsma
A QHHT hypnosis with Olga is truly a very special experience! Olga takes you on a journey of discovery, explains everything clearly, and puts you completely at ease. As a result, it feels safe and familiar before, during, and after the session, allowing you to fully relax and surrender to the process. The deep state of relaxation and awareness you reach feels wonderful. For me, it was a beautiful and insightful experience for which I am very grateful.
Brigit
A warm welcome and a loving gaze—that is how I came to know Olga. Her empathy made me feel immediately at ease and allowed me to let go of ‘control’. In complete surrender, I was able to journey to my deepest questions, and Olga’s voice felt like a anchor. What I found particularly special was that it seemed as if Olga was watching along, adding depth at the right moment or setting a different course. I have learned to surf in time; I now know sooner when I have fallen off the board, and with the next wave, I climb back on.

I had a wonderful experience with Olga. She is a loving, open person, so you feel at ease right away, and the hypnosis leads you to wondrous places within yourself. There, you discover that you actually already have quite a few answers to your questions. Highly recommended!
Sam Ros
Today I had the pleasure of experiencing a QHHT session under the inspiring guidance of Olga. Before she begins a detailed explanation of her method, she explores your current life path with you in an empathetic and insightful way, during which the penny often drops. In doing so, she truly puts you at ease. Ultimately, she feels so familiar at the start of the session that it takes no effort to surrender to her. She safely guides me through this clarifying session.
