COACHING THAT FITS YOU

Personal coaching that moves with your question

Does this sound familiar?

You are not looking for a standard programme. You are looking for someone who looks at you, at your question, at what is going on for you. Not a method that supposedly works for everyone, but being with what shows up for you in that moment.

You are looking for someone who stays calm, has no haste, and works with you on a layer deeper than tips and lists. Someone who lets your question lead and who offers working forms that suit what shows up.

Sound familiar?

When a standard approach does not fit you

Much coaching is offered in a fixed format. A workbook, a method. For some people that works well. For others it feels too small for what is going on.

Your question does not fit in a box

You are not stressed but you are restless. You are not off work but you are tired. You are not switching but your work gnaws. You do not fit clearly in a specialist coaching form.

You have tried methods already

A training, a programme, a book. It helped a bit, but you sense something more personal is needed than a method applied to everyone.

You want room for what shows up

What is going on today is not necessarily what is going on in two weeks. You want a coach who goes with that movement instead of pushing through a fixed path.

What can you expect?

How we work together

Personal coaching with me is not a standardised path. It is work in which the form follows what you bring and what shows up in the moment.

A deeper approach

We do not stay at the surface. We work with what sits beneath your question, with patterns you carry, and with the layer where real change emerges.

The time it needs

Sessions last 1.5 hours. Personal work does not let itself be rushed. Everything is welcome. Without judgement, with full attention.

A safe space

What you say here stays here. You do not need to come in prepared, do homework, or have specific knowledge.

Flexible in form

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

Lasting change

What personal coaching brings you

What personal coaching brings depends on what you come with. Below a few shifts people often report.

Clarity about what is really going on

You often only recognise in coaching what the actual question beneath your question was. That alone can shift a lot.

A sense of being heard and seen

For those who listen a lot to others in their work or life, this is valuable in itself.

Decisions that fit

Not through pros-and-cons lists, but by being truly tuned to what matters to you and what fits who you are.

Patterns that lose their grip

What you used to do reactively, you start noticing. As a result you can choose to do it differently.

A calmer underlying tone

Many people notice that the overall pace and intensity of their inner noise decrease. That is a different life.

In depth

How this personal coaching differs

Personal coaching is a broad term. In itself it says little more than "individual coaching with a coach". What I mean by personal coaching is work in which everything revolves around you. Not a method applied to you, but work that forms around what you bring. Everything is welcome.

This is not a specific methodology. For those looking for cognitive behavioural therapy, NLP, or another delimited method, there are coaches who work in that. My approach is a combination of pillars I deploy depending on what fits.

Nor is this life coaching or wellbeing coaching. For those with life direction questions, life coaching may fit better. For those specifically working on wellbeing, wellbeing coaching is a better term. Personal coaching is broader and not specific to a theme.

What you get here is working with what you bring and what brings you to the core of who you really are. We do not stay at the surface. We work with patterns, with what you carry, with your system, and with your body where that helps.

I work with three pillars. Psychology, to understand how you have been formed and which patterns run on. Systemic work, to see which forces in your life pull at you. And an integral, experience-based approach, because personal work is not only thinking but also feeling and experiencing.

About me

Am I the right personal coach for you?

I work with people who want to work on what is going on for them on a deeper layer than the visible. My approach combines psychology, systemic work and Eastern wisdom. 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 forms around your question
  • Time to settle into what is going on
  • A clear view of what really matters to you
  • Experience with personal work in various phases
  • Confidential and without judgement

On request Get in touch

Many employers cover coaching through their training budget, so it's always worth asking. Are the costs a barrier for you? Let me know. There's sometimes room.
