Personal coaching, personal guidance (life, work, leisure)Sometimes you get stuck.
Sometimes life choices and 'crossroads' are difficult.
Sometimes you just don't know.
Sometimes you're looking for someone to think critically with (or to think against...)
Whether it is at work, in your life, relationship, social life, etc. Anyone can get 'stuck'.
As a personal coach I teach and/or help you to come out of it better, to deal with it, to learn. Because every setback can also bring you something that you can use. That is what I want to teach you, discover together with you.
I can help you structure what you are doing, set (realistic) goals for life and work. I also help you learn to prepare for difficult conversations, for example. But first and foremost, I listen to you. With reflection questions, I may already put you on a track that leads somewhere. I teach you how to discover what you really want. I do this by asking further questions (sometimes with uncomfortable questions) and by giving you exercises so that you can get started yourself.
The responsibility of course always lies with you when it comes to making choices, or with regard to what you want to get out of a trajectory. But sometimes brainstorming and thinking together just helps better (in your learning process).
With a psychology degree, a variety of courses after my education, 25 years of work experience (controlling, purchasing, strategic advice, administration, HR), coaching experience with interns, and education for adults, I am broadly oriented. I am analytical and like a pragmatic approach. I have experience with highly sensitive people.

✅NLP TRAINING (NEURO-LINGUISTIC PROGRAMMING): COMMUNICATION, SELF-IMAGE, BEHAVIORAL DECODINGBorn following behavioral observation, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) designates a whole set of techniques (dissociation, reframing, etc.) and methods aimed at promoting the personal development of the individual.
Neuro-linguistic programming is concerned with how humans function in a given environment, based on their behavioral patterns. Through a set of techniques and methods, NLP helps to change the way an individual perceives his environment. Indeed, each individual has a map of the world which is specific to him, and which is modulated by his beliefs and his conditioning. The purpose of NLP is to modify this map in order to enable the individual to achieve their goals more effectively. NLP therefore provides the necessary tools to make personal and structural changes, in order to create new potential for success.
Neuro-linguistic programming is primarily concerned with "How to make it work well?" Rather than "Why is this not working?" ". It suggests recognizing the behaviors we adopt when communicating, and then making changes if desired.
- “Programming” refers to the fact that we are conditioned by our environment which includes a system of beliefs and behaviors.
- “Neuro” means that these programs are encoded in our neural circuits.
- “Linguistics” refers to language, whether verbal or non-verbal.
Examples of benefits of Neurolinguistic Programming:
-Improvement of the mother-child relationship
-Improved performance and decreased anxiety
-Improvement of psychological difficulties and quality of life
(..)
The objective of this training: to target the tools which will support your communication, your image, will help you to decipher your interlocutor (...) to better achieve your objectives.
Thus, after having exchanged with you about the essential blockages that you encounter, targeted areas for improvement, your objectives (...), pragmatic tools, techniques & methods will be put in place based on the initial data. Combined with these theoretical elements, their implementation will follow (for example, by filmed simulations or at the end of the session in real life).
Course of a session: in conversational form, the practitioner identifies the problem and determines the objective with the client by asking a set of questions. He directs his questions towards solutions rather than the story that generated the situation.
Then according to his practice, the practitioner uses the tools at his disposal in order to remove blockages and promote behavioral change, while deciphering the communication of the other as well as his own, thanks to specific NLP tools.
