My approach
Sometimes you want to change something, but you’re not quite sure what or how. Other times, you have a clear goal in mind, but you don’t know how to get there. Let me help you.
Drawing from various trainings, methods, literature, and my experience living and working abroad, I have developed the C.O.N.N.E.C.T. method.
This method guides you toward deeper self-awareness, greater ownership, breaking unhelpful patterns, and developing new behavior.
Each component is focused on creating a safe environment where you can discover your full potential and grow with confidence.
What can you expect?
Coaching begins with connection.
My coaching sessions focus on what you need to learn and grow. I use empathy and intuition to connect with your story. Together we create a safe space for you to be yourself, discover what works for you and take meaningful action.
Coaching is a personal process, so I do not work with cookie-cutter solutions. I tailor each session to your needs, making adjustments where necessary and allowing you to take ownership of the process.
In our conversations I help you to connect with yourself. I challenge you to discover what is really going on. You will gain insight into your patterns, beliefs and behaviours and learn to link these to your goals and aspirations. Together we clarify what you need to take concrete steps forward.
Everything you bring is allowed to be as it is.
Step by step we work towards deep self-understanding and sustainable growth.
The following components are used in a dynamic and flexible way throughout the coaching process:
Clarify your goals and desires
What do you really want? In the first phase, we zoom in on your aspirations and your ideal situation. We map out your personal and/or professional goals and look at the environmental factors involved. We explore unconscious patterns and what you need to learn to achieve your desires and goals. This gives you direction and clarity
Observe obstacles and beliefs
What is holding you back? We identify the obstacles and beliefs that are holding you back. Using the iceberg metaphor, we dive deeper into your unconscious drives. This brings new insights and creates space to break patterns.
Navigate experiences
By looking at the past and reflecting on what is happening in the present, you learn to understand yourself better. What works for you? What doesn’t? These insights are essential for sustainable growth and making new choices.
Nurture awareness and ownership
Mindfulness teaches you to consciously reflect on your thoughts, feelings and physical sensations without being guided by automatic responses. This awareness gives you more control over your choices and behaviour.
I support you in becoming self-aware and taking responsibility for your choices and behaviour. Stimulating questions and exercises help you to find solutions that really suit you.
Elevate insights into meaningful actions
New insights are only valuable if you can apply them. That is why we work with you on achievable, concrete actions that suit you and bring you closer to your ideal situation. In this way, your change becomes tangible and you work on your growth step by step.
Connect and support
I’m not taking you by the hand, but I’m close. Change takes courage. That is why I stand beside you, offering a safe space and the support you need to allow yourself to be vulnerable and to grow. Here you can experiment, learn and grow without judgement.
Take action and maintaining momentum
Taking action and maintaining momentum is essential. We work with small, achievable steps and focus on the future you want and what is already going well. By celebrating success and evaluating regularly, we keep you focused on your progress. This helps you to maintain and sustain your progress.
My approach is based, inter alia, on Visser’s Progress-Focused approach and Lingsma and Van Doorn’s 5 Critical Success Factors for Coaching.
