A Bit About My Work
Personalized Attention for All Your Needs

I implement effective tools to instill self-understanding among clients and encourage them to new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that my work is not a magic pill or a quick fix: It is an integration and transformation process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.

Services I Offer
With You Every Step of the Way
Holistic Counseling
This unique approach to counseling offers a way of communicating that encourages attentive listening, as well as honest and compassionate expression. It makes room for new insights and understandings, wisdom in decision making, and healing. You can bring any issue regarding work, relating, meditation or any other aspect of daily life. Being too much attached and identified with thoughts and emotions results in unnecessary tensions and can be experienced as rather stressful. By reconnecting with who you really are, your original source, the center, which lies beyond the body/mind system, support will be created to gain clarity, more awareness, and a deeper understanding. Through centering and awareness techniques we support our ability to respond rather than react to the challenges in our daily lives. But this is not enough. We also work directly with your nervous system so that old imprints from early childhood can be released from your unconscious memory. Unresolved early childhood issues can wreak havoc in our life. But Holistic Counseling can help you release old stress and integrate past issues so that you can find your way back to a joyous and fulfilled life again. Schedule an appointment today and see the difference that Holistic Counseling can make for you.
Conscious Relating
I get it. I've been there too. Relating is one of the most beautiful, and yet, one of the hardest things to do well, leave alone master. But I do know how we can make it better. Easier. More fulfilling. More satisfying.Healthy. Are you ready to transform the way you relate? Let's begin: In my research and professional experience, I've seen over and over again that the root cause of many, if not all, relationship problems is unrecognized early childhood adversity, and this is what needs to be worked on first. Next, we'll look at relationship dynamics and investigate what keeps you feeling disconnected, unsafe, not seen or understood. Contrary to what many people think, big changes can occur even if only one partner works on themselves. I know you may want your husband or wife to do the work, to change, to fix whatever it is that he or she does. No! Start with yourself and you will see the miracle that is bound to happen in your relationship. If one person changes the other is bound to follow. And often, he or she does so without you needing to push them at all! Sometimes, the field changes (the relationship dynamics), and that is enough. Other times, the partner feels the shift in you and suddenly wants to see a therapist or coach himself. So, open yourself up to this possibility. If your partner is ready, I will also do couples sessions. But I won't do it if you have to force your partner into my office. Start with yourself. You can do it for your partner or for your kids. But really, do it first and foremost for your own heart and soul, otherwise, it just won't work as well as it could. Get in touch to book an appointment today.
Stress Coaching for Better Resilience
I am passionate about nervous system health and strengthening one's resilience. The world we live in challenges us to the max sometimes. Chronic stress can lead to chronic dysregulation of the nervous system, and this needs to be counteracted if we want to stay healthy. What do I mean by chronic dysregulation? Another word for it is Trauma. But that's a scary word, which is overrated and often misunderstood. Trauma is not in the event, it is in the body. It is far less scary than we think, and it is entirely possible to recover from it. As I said, trauma is simply a dysregulation in the Autonomic Nervous System. So, in order to effectively work with trauma, we need to work with the body. I use two different methods; TRE®, the abbreviation for Trauma Releasing Exercises, and a synthesis of Irene Lyon's and Dr. Peter A. Levine's work that I call Somatic Therapy. TRE® works directly with the muscle tissue in a non-invasive way and through this, accesses the nervous system and the brainstem. Somatic Therapy uses the felt sense of the body to access the client's physiology where the trauma is held. You can read more about trauma and nervous system health here.
Diet Changes, Compulsive Eating Patters? Food-related issues?
I get it. Eating well and maintaining healthy and well-balanced eating patterns is not easy for some of us. It's my own story. I have spent many years trying to fix my dietary issues. I used to over-eat, I used to not eat for days and weeks. Of course, not in order to detox but in order to lose weight! I used to try any diet that I would come across in that desperate attempt to look good and to be acceptable by society's ideal. Got similar experiences? Want to change something? I am here for you. Changing those kinds of patterns isn't easy when you are all alone. It really helps if there's someone that knows what it feels like and that has walked the path before you. Get in touch with me today if you are ready to make a change! I look forward to hearing from you.
Courses & Seminars
I run courses and experiential groups in various different subjects. One of my projects in this area is called Nature my Goddess, in the context of which I run nature retreats that are grounded in meditation but some also focus on deep transformative work. For more information check out the Nature my Goddess webpage. Another one of my areas of interest is facilitating group processes called Osho Meditative Therapies. Read more about it here. Yet another area of interest is focussed on healing the nervous system. More about it here. So take your pick. In pretty much all I do, we’ll work on the underlying root cause that is responsible for relationship-, work and life issues that all of us face sometimes. All my workshops consist of some teaching and some experiential content. You'll get the chance to learn and embody tools that will help you navigate life with more ease, trust, and confidence. Also, working in a group environment, as opposed to individual counseling, can be so much more powerful. The clients that I have worked with in the past have confirmed this in their feedback. If nature retreats interest you check for workshops & retreats here.
