Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves4 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Polyvagal Institute: Stephen Porges' organization advancing polyvagal theory and training. Comparable as both deliver polyvagal-theory-based training programs and target overlapping audiences of professionals seeking nervous-system literacy.
• ReAttach International Foundation: The originating organization for the ReAttach therapy method that Nathalia Liem offers. Directly comparable as both organizations deliver the same 5-session ReAttach protocol and could compete for trauma clients in the Dutch market, or alternatively could serve as a channel/training partner.

Broad incumbents

• Instituut voor Toegepaste Haptonomie: Nathalia Liem's haptotherapy training institute in Berg en Dal. Functions as both a training provider and a hub for affiliated practitioners, making it a comparable, larger participant in the same haptotherapy specialty.
• Academie voor Haptonomie: The training institution where Nathalia Liem completed her basic haptonomy education. Operates broadly in the haptonomy ecosystem as a training provider and broader haptonomy practitioner, making it comparable as a higher-tier, education-anchored participant in the same therapeutic tradition.

Others

• Vereniging van Haptotherapeuten (VVH): The Dutch professional association for haptotherapists that Nathalia belongs to (member 121 A). Comparable as the industry body governing the same professional discipline and setting quality standards the practice must meet.
• Centrum Savita: The German venue partner that hosts Nathalia's Polyvagaaltheorie training. Adjacent ecosystem participant offering wellness retreats and training facilities; not a competitor but a structural partner in the training revenue stream.

Emerging players

• Biodanza Nederland: National Biodanza organization in the same body-based, movement-and-touch therapy tradition. Comparable as a niche, modality-specific operator serving overlapping client interests in embodied practice and personal development.
