Holistic coaching that takes all layers seriously

Does this sound familiar?

You feel that what is bothering you does not fit into one box. It sits partly in your head, partly in your body, partly in your relationships, partly in your work. It is not one thing, it is an interplay.

You know that working only on behaviour misses something. You know that working only on feeling misses something. What you are looking for is someone who takes all layers seriously without getting vague.

You are looking for someone who works with you on what really plays out, on all the layers where it plays. Thinking, feeling, experiencing. Not as separate parts but as a whole that is yours.

Sound familiar?

When an approach on one layer is not enough

Much coaching specialises in one layer. Cognitive, physical, spiritual, behavioural. For some questions that works. For other questions an integrated approach fits better.

You have been sent from layer to layer

First a behavioural coach, then a body worker, then maybe a mindfulness training. Each helped a bit, but no one saw the whole picture.

You know everything is connected and look for someone who sees that too

Your work patterns are tied to your history. Your body reacts to what you do not say. Your relationships reflect what sits in your system. You look for someone who takes those connections along without exaggerating them.

You distrust vagueness and at the same time miss depth

'Holistic' has a reputation of vague and spiritual. You want the breadth of the work, but without the tone in which it is sometimes offered.

What can you expect?

How we work together

Holistic coaching with me is not alternative healing or new age. It is regular coaching that does not artificially isolate a specific aspect, but works with what becomes felt on all layers.

A deeper approach

We work with head, body, feeling and awareness at the same time. What plays out in your thoughts, how it sits in your body, what you feel, and which forces in your life join in.

The time it needs

Sessions last 1.5 to 2 hours. Holistic work asks for time to give all layers a voice. Everything is welcome. Without judgement, with full attention.

A safe space

What you say here stays here. You do not have to prove anything, have specific knowledge, or believe in a particular worldview.

Flexible in form

Sessions take place on location in The Hague (indoor or outdoor), online, or a combination.

Lasting change

What holistic coaching brings you

What a holistic approach brings is not better than a specific approach. It is different. For some questions breadth is the gain, for others focus is the gain.

Insights that touch multiple layers at once

What you understand in your head, you also feel in your body. What your body shows, your head also recognises. That coherence is workable.

A sense of unity in your life

You experience your work, your relationships, your health and your direction as elements of the same system. They connect again.

Clearer choices from the whole

Decisions you make are tuned to who you are. That makes them more lasting.

Feeling less fragmented

For those who often feel fragmented across different roles and expectations, holistic work brings a sense of grounding back.

A broader language for yourself

You learn to communicate intuitively in ways that go beyond a story. That gives you more room to understand yourself.

In depth

How this holistic coaching differs

'Holistic' is a word with a charge. Some people think of alternative healers, herbs, energetic work. Others think of integrative psychology. My take is mainly an integral approach with a lot of grounding.

This is not alternative healing. I do not work with homeopathy, energetic healing, or other methods. For those looking for that, there are specialised practitioners.

Nor is this religious or new age coaching. I work secular and pragmatic. Spirituality can come along in conversations if that is alive for you, but it is not a basis of the work.

What you get here is coaching that does not artificially focus on one aspect. We work with your thoughts when they play. With your body when it shows up. With your feeling when it comes forward. With your system when it pulls at you. The form follows from what shows up in the moment, not from a method applied to everything.

I work with three pillars. Psychology, for the cognitive and emotional layer. Systemic work, for the relational and family layers. And an integral, experience-based approach, for what happens in body and direct experience. Those three together make it possible to work holistically without becoming vague.

About me

Am I the right holistic coach for you?

I work with people who feel their question plays out in multiple layers at once and who want a coach who can handle that. My approach combines psychology, systemic work and an integral, experience-based way of looking. No fixed step-by-step plan, no quick fix. But room to see more deeply what is actually going on and to move from there with more clarity. I work on location in The Hague. Sessions live indoor or outdoor, online or in combination.

What you can expect from me

  • A conversation that takes all layers seriously
  • Time to see connections between layers
  • A clear view of what really matters to you
  • Experience with integrative work
  • Confidential and without judgement

Many employers reimburse coaching through the training budget, so it is worth asking. Are the costs a barrier for you? Let me know. There is sometimes room.
