Coaching vs counselling - what’s the difference?
While both coaching and counseling can support you in navigating challenges and achieving personal growth, they differ in their focus, techniques, and objectives.
Coaching emphasizes forward-thinking, action-oriented strategies to enhance performance and achieve goals: you will create action plans with defined steps and timelines which will help you to feel accountable. Often progress is fast and there is a feeling of elation and accomplishment.
Counseling prioritizes emotional exploration, self-awareness, and healing to promote psychological well-being. We are all more than just the sum of our parts and if you are ready to have a look at what makes you YOU and unravel unhelpful behaviours it will set you free to act on your goals. By constantly checking in to where you are and how to move forward you will find a safe way to learn about yourself and how to conquer any obstacles in your way.
It is up to you which path you chose and you can change track at any point.
Coaching/counselling - online sessions
During our intro-call we will explore what it is you would like to work on and which path will encourage you to really dig deep and achieve the results you are looking for.
No “one size fits all” – your journey with me is fully personalised for your individual needs!
I will help you to gain valuable insights into your beliefs, habits, and patterns, and we’ll work collaboratively to reframe your mindset and break through barriers. Holistic coaching incorporates a range of techniques, including mindfulness, visualization, and self-care practices, ensuring you leave each session with practical tools to implement in your daily life.
We will meet online at a time that suits you!
Coaching/counselling - walking sessions
As before, but we will meet in an outdoor space in Amsterdam.
Conducting sessions in nature offers a multitude of benefits: being
outdoors can create a calming and peaceful environment,
reduce stress and anxiety levels. The natural surroundings
provide a sense of space, freedom, and connection with the
environment, fostering introspection and mindfulness. The results are
surprising – give it a go!
Corporate Coaching
My Corporate Coaching offering is tailored to your requirements. During our intro-call we will explore what it is you would like to work on and which path is most likely to result in the outcomes you would like to see for yourself, your team or organisation.
Reintegration Coaching & Career Coaching
I am a certified Re-Integration coach. I support employees on first-track trajectories (reintegration into a previous role and within the same company) or second-track trajectories (exploring options outside of their current role).

It is truly inspiring to see clients spreading their wings and succeeding in returning to work stronger than ever.
As your career coach, I provide personalized guidance tailored to your unique strengths and aspirations, empowering you to navigate your professional journey with confidence and clarity. Together, we’ll collaborate on goal-setting and skill-building strategies to help you achieve your career ambitions and thrive in today’s dynamic job market.

Whether you are looking for a small-scale project to improve teamwork or a larger project to tackle employee engagement: I can help you on the path to creating a happy, healthy and productive workforce.
Let’s talk to discuss your needs!
Art Workshops
Sometimes, the best way to explore and release pent up emotions is by bringing them alive through art.
You do not need to be an artist to unlock your creativity and explore your inner world – let’s play!
Workshop - in person
My workshops provide a safe space where you can express yourself freely and explore your inner world through creative mediums. Experience the therapeutic power of art, promoting self-discovery, healing, and personal growth.
With an open mind and a playful approach, we will do what feels right: you can smash things if you like!
During our intro call, I will ask questions to understand what it is you need. All materials will be provided, but I might ask you to bring items that can help you to access your emotions, photos or clothes for example. It is also possible to attend as a couple, group of friends or team colleagues. Of course, any creations are yours to take home, reminding you of the event and the progress you made.
The workshops are only available in The Netherlands.
