Life Coach for 'newcomers' in The Netherlands (e.g. students, expats)

Hi! My name is Vivianne. I have been living in Amsterdam for two years now and I do love this city! I'm originally Dutch and I have lived in several countries (different places in The Netherlands, Hong Kong, Peru). That feeling of entering a new city is amazing; all those new people, places and beautiful spots but it can also make you a bit insecure about your decisions. Did you choose the right studies or job? You moved for love but what's next? What about new friends? You're not alone, many people around you experience the same. Next to my own experiences, I work as Dutch teacher (Dutch as a second language) and therefore know how 'newcomers' experience their new life. I want to help people feeling happier and content with their decisions. I have a background in (international) marketing, languages and intercultural communication and due to this combination I have a depth intercultural understanding.

So, if you want to talk about...

- Your life in The Netherlands (e.g. studies, job)
- Your decisions (e.g. feelings, emotions regarding any subject)
- Your future plans (e.g. staying in The Netherlands, moving)

And want to feel...

- More confident in your studies / job
- Happier in your personal and social life
- More integrated in the Dutch culture

Without feeling a patient in need of an expensive psychologist/psychiatrist, feel free to contact me. We can have a short intake so you can tell me something about yourself and make a plan for further meetings.

If you're interested in Dutch lessons as well we could, of course, customize the sessions.

Fundamentals of Bicycle Repair - Fixing flat tires, adjusting brakes, and more
Bicycles are the easiest way to get around Amsterdam. Chances are you can ride a bike, but a flat tire will bring your ride to a stop. Not only does taking your bike to a shop cost money, but the mechanic might not have your repair done for several days. If you would like to do your own repairs, I am your guy! Besides working as a mechanic at bike shops , I have taught bicycle safety and held neighborhood repair clinics. Together we will cover fixing a flat tire, adjusting brakes, and a comprehensive safety check. Depending on your bike and your ambition, we will cover gears and the internal bearing systems!

Coaching for Immigration, Education, and Personal Development
I am a third-year Master's student in Clinical Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Pavia, currently working on my thesis. Over the past five years, I have worked with high school students(and later, bachelor students) in various roles, including university entrance support, teaching, and assisting a school psychologist. This experience sparked my curiosity about the needs and motivations of individuals, particularly young adults, which became the focus of my Bachelor's research project. Later, I moved to Italy for my Master's degree and spent another year working as an immigration consultant. I consider myself a social and empathetic person who enjoys listening to people’s stories and learning about their paths to success. During my teaching assistant internship, I worked closely with around 100 students over the course of a year, which profoundly shaped my perspective on career development. This experience led me to pursue certifications in coaching and educational guidance, and I am continuously expanding my knowledge in these areas. If you feel uncertain about your life, want to develop personal growth skills, or simply need help building a productive daily routine, don’t hesitate to reach out. I would be happy to support you on your journey.

Three possible answers: - "I have already tried this solution but it does not suit me" or "I do not really believe it": we go to the next suggestion - “Never tried” or “why not”, “I'll think about it”: we set ourselves the goal of trying as soon as the opportunity arises, by the next session Concretely, a session = a reflection but above all A SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the following session in order to overcome its blockages.
